Opis

The second edition of a bestseller, this book is a practical guide to image processing for the natural and technical sciences community. Students, practitioners, and researchers can gain immediate access to a sound basic knowledge of image processing by referencing general principles in the natural sciences. The book describes carefully selected algorithms in detail and demonstrates real-world applications that show the reader how to solve complex image processing problems. Hundreds of photos, figures, diagrams, and tables illustrate the text, and numerous well-organized tips save countless hours in the practical handling of image acquisition and processing.

Recenzje

"…covers a significant number of standard methods. … The selection of topics would fit a one-semester graduate-level course in image processing for science and engineering majors. … The book is clearly written … The photographs, diagrams, and formulas are well done. … Summing Up: Recommended."
-CHOICE, Vol. 42, No. 2, Oct. 2004


"The book … uses images, graphics and charts effectively … [It] is well-organized and useful for a variety of scientists from electrical engineers to biologists and other physical sciences."
