Written as an introduction for undergraduate students, this textbook covers the most important methods in digital image processing. Formal and mathematical aspects are discussed at a fundamental level and various practical examples and exercises supplement the text. The book uses the image processing environment ImageJ, freely distributed by the National Institute of Health. A comprehensive website supports the book, and contains full source code for all examples in the book, a question and answer forum, slides for instructors, etc. Digital Image Processing in Java is the definitive textbook for computer science students studying image processing and digital processing.
This book contains 31 papers carefully selected from among those presented at the 7th Scandinavian Conference on Image Analysis. The authors have extended their papers to give a more in-depth discussion of the theory, or of the experimental validation of the method they have proposed. The topics covered are current and wide-ranging and include both 2D- and 3D-vision, and low to high level vision.
In recent years, Moore's law has fostered the steady growth of the field of digital image processing, though the computational complexity remains a problem for most of the digital image processing applications. In parallel, the research domain of optical image processing has matured, potentially bypassing the problems digital approaches were suffering and bringing new applications. The advancement of technology calls for applications and knowledge at the intersection of both areas but there is a clear knowledge gap between the digital signal processing and the optical processing communities. This book covers the fundamental basis of the optical and image processing techniques by integrating contributions from both optical and digital research communities to solve current application bottlenecks, and give rise to new applications and solutions. Besides focusing on joint research, it also aims at disseminating the knowledge existing in both domains. Applications covered include image restoration, medical imaging, surveillance, holography, etc... "a very good book that deserves to be on the bookshelf of a serious student or scientist working in these areas." Source: Optics and Photonics News
A newly updated and revised edition of the classic introduction to digital image processing The Fourth Edition of Digital Image Processing provides a complete introduction to the field and includes new information that updates the state of the art. The text offers coverage of new topics and includes interactive computer display imaging examples and computer programming exercises that illustrate the theoretical content of the book. These exercises can be implemented using the Programmer's Imaging Kernel System (PIKS) application program interface included on the accompanying CD. Suitable as a textbook for students or as a reference for practitioners, this new edition provides a comprehensive treatment of these vital topics: Characterization of continuous images Image sampling and quantization techniques Two-dimensional signal processing techniques Image enhancement and restoration techniques Image analysis techniques Software implementation of image processing applications In addition, the bundled CD includes: A Solaris operating system executable version of the PIKS Scientific API A Windows operating system executable version of PIKS Scientific A Windows executable version of PIKSTool, a graphical user interface method of executing many of the PIKS Scientic operators without program compilation A PDF file format version of the PIKS Scientific C programmer's reference manual C program source demonstration programs A digital image database of most of the source images used in the book plus many others widely used in the literature Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.

For years, Image Processing has been the foundational text for the study of digital image processing. The book is suited for students at the college senior and first-year graduate level with prior background in mathematical analysis, vectors, matrices, probability, statistics, linear systems, and computer programming. As in all earlier editions, the focus of this edition of the book is on fundamentals. The 4th Edition is based on an extensive survey of faculty, students, and independent readers in 5 institutions from 3 countries. Their feedback led to expanded or new coverage of topics such as deep learning and deep neural networks, including convolutional neural nets, the scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT), MERS, graph cuts, k-means clustering and superpiels, active contours (snakes and level sets), and each histogram matching. Major improvements were made in reorganising the material on image transforms into a more cohesive presentation, and in the discussion of spatial kernels and spatial filtering. Major revisions and additions were made to examples and homework exercises throughout the book.
