Image processing-from basics to advanced applications
Learn how to master image processing and compression with this outstanding state-of-the-art reference. From fundamentals to sophisticated applications, Image Processing: Principles and Applications covers multiple topics and provides a fresh perspective on future directions and innovations in the field, including:
* Image transformation techniques, including wavelet transformation and developments
* Image enhancement and restoration, including noise modeling and filtering
* Segmentation schemes, and classification and recognition of objects
* Texture and shape analysis techniques
* Fuzzy set theoretical approaches in image processing, neural networks, etc.
* Content-based image retrieval and image mining
* Biomedical image analysis and interpretation, including biometric algorithms such as face recognition and signature verification
* Remotely sensed images and their applications
* Principles and applications of dynamic scene analysis and moving object detection and tracking
* Fundamentals of image compression, including the JPEG standard and the new JPEG2000 standard
Additional features include problems and solutions with each chapter to help you apply the theory and techniques, as well as bibliographies for researching specialized topics. With its extensive use of examples and illustrative figures, this is a superior title for students and practitioners in computer science, wireless and multimedia communications, and engineering.
Review
"The avowed aim of this book is to describe both modern and older techniques in image processing in an introductory textbook. This is a very real need, and this book is certainly useful for this purpose..." (Computing Reviews.com, December 20, 2005)
"...suitable for use as a text in a formal setting, or for the individual..." (Books-On-Line.com)
Summary: Includes the new JPEG 2000 Standard
Rating: 5
The applications for image processing technology are increasing rapidly as computers become more powerful. Images enable a doctor to view the inside of the body in a manner that gives him useful information he could never decipher out of the raw data. With the increase in the demand for images, so has the need for information on digital image processing.
This book begins with the image sensor and continues through the programming techniques that are applicable . This includes both processing the image for automatic analysis (fingerprint or facial feature analysis), or presenting the image for human evaluation (a digital camera). The book is primarily interested in still images rather than video.
The early chapters in the book are oriented to the basic technology of image processing that are used in virtually all applications. This includes a chapter on color imagry and others on the mathematical tranforms. Later chapters are broken down more to application areas such as biomedical, and satellite sensors and imageries.
Finally the last chapters discuss image compression to minimize image storage space and transmission times. This includes a full discussion on the new JPEG 2000 standard. One of the authors, Dr. Acharya was a member of the committee developing this standard.
This book is suitable for use as a text in a formal setting, or for the individual who may be interested.
