Synopses & Reviews
This state-of-the-art book deals with the most important aspects of non-linear imaging challenges. The need for engineering and mathematical methods is essential for defining non-linear effects involved in such areas as computer vision, optical imaging, computer pattern recognition, and industrial automation challenges.
* Presents the latest developments in a variety of filter design techniques and algorithms
* Contains essential information for development of Human Vision Systems (HVS)
* Provides foundations for digital imaging and image capture technology
