Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book presents the underlying algorithms used in all the basic of the advanced image processing techniques. The use of these techniques used to be limited to signal processing engineers and scientists. The decreasing cost of computer power and increasing quality of computer graphics has allowed image processing techniques to be used in almost all professional communities.
