Book Computer Transformation Of Digital Images And Patterns

Download or read book Computer Transformation Of Digital Images And Patterns written by Tien Dai Bui and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1989-11-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is concerned with linear and nonlinear transformations of digitized images and patterns. Transformation models include linear, quadratic, cubic, bilinear, biquadratic, bicubic, Coons model and other nonlinear forms such as harmonic, projective, and perspective transformations. Discrete techniques have been developed to realize both forward and inverse transformations. The latter can be applied to normalize distorted images and to enhance the pattern recognition process. Efficient algorithms such as the splitting-shooting methods and splitting-integrating methods have been developed and analysed in this book for the first time. Graphical examples are given and compared with existing algorithms. This book is of interest to researchers in the areas of pattern recognition, character recognition, image processing, computer vision, computer graphics and other related fields.

The book is intended to be self-contained in so far as the subject of image fusion is concerned, although some prior exposure to the ?eld of computer vision and image processing may be helpful to the reader. Apart from two preliminary chapters, the book is divided into three parts.

Book Strip Method for Image and Signal Transformation

Download or read book Strip Method for Image and Signal Transformation written by Leonid A. Mironovsky and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Book The Social Photo

    Book Details:
  • Author : Nathan Jurgenson
  • Publisher : Verso Books
  • Release : 2019-04-30
  • ISBN : 1786635461
  • Pages : 149 pages

Download or read book The Social Photo written by Nathan Jurgenson and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mr. Jurgenson makes a first sortie toward a new understanding of the photograph, wherein artistry or documentary intent have given way to communication and circulation. Like Susan Sontag’s On Photography, to which it self-consciously responds, The Social Photo is slim, hard-bitten and picture-free." – New York Times A set of bold theoretical reflections on how the social photo has remade our world. With the rise of the smart phone and social media, cameras have become ubiquitous, infiltrating nearly every aspect of social life. The glowing camera screen is the lens through which many of us seek to communicate our experience. But our thinking about photography has been slow to catch-up; this major fixture of everyday life is still often treated in the terms of art or journalism. In The Social Photo, social theorist Nathan Jurgenson develops bold new ways of understanding photography in the age of social media and the new kinds of images that have emerged: the selfie, the faux-vintage photo, the self-destructing image, the food photo. Jurgenson shows how these devices and platforms have remade the world and our understanding of ourselves within it.

Book Design for Embedded Image Processing on FPGAs
