Synopsis
The Handbook of Computer Vision and Applications, Three-Volume Set is on one of the "hottest" subjects in today's intersection of Applied Physics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Applied Mathematics.The uniqueness of this set is that it is very applications-oriented. Examples of applications in different fields of modern science are particularly emphasized. In addition, a CD-ROM is included with each of the three volumes.
Key Features* Presents an interdisciplinary approach to the basics and the state-of-the-art of computer vision, written in a way that is understandable for a broad audience* Covers modern concepts in computer vision and modern developments of technical imaging sensors* Bridges the gap between theory and practical applications* Features the entire text of the handbook on CD-ROM with hyperlinks for quick searching and browsing* Includes a rich collection of additional material on the CD-ROM: reference material, interactive software components, code examples, image material, and references to sources on the Internet
About the Author
Horst Haußecker received his diploma in physics and doctoral degree from Heidelberg University in 1994 and 1996, respectively. He was a visiting scientist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in 1994. Currently he is conducting research in the image processing research group at the Interdisciplinary Center for Scientific Computing, IWR, where he also lectures on optical flow computation. His research interests include computer vision, especially image sequence analysis, infrared thermography, and fuzzy-image processing, as well as the application of image processing in physical sciences and oceanography.
