Opis

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Scale-Space and Morphology in Computer Vision, Scale-Space 2001, held in Vancouver, Canada in July 2001.
The 18 revised full papers presented together with 23 posters were carefully reviewed and selected from 60 submissions. The book addresses all current aspects of scale-space and morphology in the context of computer vision, in particular, vector distance functions, optic flow, image registration, curve evolution, morphological segmentation, scalar images, vector images, automatic scale selection, geometric diffusion, diffusion filtering, image filtering, inverse problems, active contours, etc.
