Affine describes a mathematical relationship that preserves parallel lines and ratios of distances, but not necessarily angles or lengths.
An affine transformation includes operations like scaling, rotating, shearing, and translating—any combination that keeps straight lines straight and parallel lines parallel.
The image was corrected using an affine transformation.
In geometry and computer graphics, affine spaces generalize Euclidean space by dropping the notion of a fixed origin.
