Signal and Image Processing Techniques for Defense, Security, and Healthcare (Premier Research Sources)

Digital image processing, or signal processing, has been utilized for defense, security, and healthcare applications, including the detection and tracking of minuscule targets, missile guidance, vehicle navigation, broad area surveillance, and automatic or assisted target recognition. In military and security applications, image processing strategies attempt to minimize the burden of human analysts to accommodate the increasing volume of picture data acquired. Other objectives include the creation of algorithms and methods that facilitate the development of autonomous systems capable of making judgments and taking actions based on all sensor inputs. Further research into signal and image processing may help improve current techniques in these sectors. Signal and Image Processing Techniques for Defense, Security, and Healthcare explores the application of advanced signal and image processing technologies across these three critical sectors. It examines how these techniques are used to analyze and interpret data in defense, security, and healthcare contexts. This book covers topics such as healthcare technology, computer algorithms, and object detection, and is a useful resource for computer engineers, medical professionals, security workers, business owners, academicians, scientists, and researchers.
