Computer Vision A modern approach

Computer Vision A modern approach - David A. Foryth

Whether in the entertainment industry (building three-dimensional computer models), medical imaging, interpreting satellite images (both for military and civilian purposes), the applications of computer vision is varied and wide ranging. And this compact yet comprehensive text provides a survey of the field of computer vision and views it from a modern perspective. It is self-contained, accessible, and lays emphasis on basic geometry, physics of imaging and probabilistic techniques. Throughout, the authors attempt to lay bare the essentials of computer vision to the students as also to the professionals. The text reflects the latest developments in the field and integrates the learning tools that aid understanding. This uptodate, contemporary text would be useful for students of computer science, IT and MCA offering courses in computer graphics, robotics, image processing, and imaging in general. It would prove equally valuable for the professionals.
