Description
When computers are asked to deal with information about the shape of objects, the tasks required can be divided into those that can be attacked by algorithms and those that cannot. This book deals with those tasks that cannot be tackled with algorithmic processes. In computer graphics and image-processing, despite great progress, it is still only the algorithmic processes that have been computerized. There are many more complex, less easily pinned-down things that we still want to do with shape information but cannot. The scope of this book ranges beyond computational geometry and von Neumann architectures, and applications covered include shape modelling, computer graphics, image processing and computer vision.
