About this title

Synopsis

This book provides researchers an inspirational look at how to process and visualize complicated 2D and 3D images known as tensor fields. With numerous color figures, it details both the underlying mathematics and the applications of tensor fields.

From the Back Cover

Matrix-valued data sets - so-called second order tensor fields -
have gained significant importance in scientific visualization and
image processing due to recent developments such as diffusion tensor
imaging. This book is the first edited volume that presents the
state-of-the-art in the visualization and processing of tensor fields.
It contains some longer chapters dedicated to surveys and tutorials of
specific topics, as well as a great deal of original work by leading
experts that has not been published before. It serves as an overview
for the inquiring scientist, as a basic foundation for developers and
practitioners, and as as a textbook for specialized classes and seminars
for graduate and doctoral students.
