Computer Vision: Algorithms and Applications (Texts in Computer Science)
ISBN: 1848829345 Binding: Hardcover Edition: 1st Edition. Author(s): Richard Szeliski Publisher: Springer Number of Pages: 832
Humans perceive the three-dimensional structure of the world with apparent ease However despite all of the recent advances in computer vision research the dream of having a computer interpret an image at the same level as a two-year old remains elusive Why is computer vision such a challenging problem and what is the current state of the art Computer Vision: Algorithms and Applications explores the variety of techniques commonly used to analyze and interpret images It also describes challenging real-world applications where vision is being successfully used both for specialized applications such as medical imaging and for fun consumer-level tasks such as image editing and stitching which students can apply to their own personal photos and videos More than just a source of recipes this exceptionally authoritative and comprehensive textbookreference also takes a scientific approach to basic vision problems formulating physical models of the imaging process before inverting them to produce descriptions of a scene These problems are also analyzed using statistical models and solved using rigorous engineering techniques Topics and features: structured to support active curricula and project-oriented courses with tips in the Introduction for using the book in a variety of customized courses; presents exercises at the end of each chapter with a heavy emphasis on testing algorithms and containing numerous suggestions for small mid-term projects; provides additional material and more detailed mathematical topics in the Appendices which cover linear algebra numerical techniques and Bayesian estimation theory; suggests additional reading at the end of each chapter including the latest research in each sub-field in addition to a full Bibliography at the end of the book; supplies supplementary course material for students at the associated website http:szeliskiorgBook Suitable for an upper-level undergraduate or graduate-level course in computer science or engineering this textbook focuses on basic techniques that work under real-world conditions and encourages students to push their creative boundaries Its design and exposition also make it eminently suitable as a unique reference to the fundamental techniques and current research literature in computer vision
