Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The articles included in this volume were presented at the 13th International Workshop on Combinatorial Image Analysis, IWCIA 2009, held at Playa del Carmen, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico, November 24-27, 2009. The 12 previous meetings were held in Paris (France) 1991, Ube (Japan) 1992, Washington DC (USA) 1994,Lyon(France) 1995,Hiroshima(Japan) 1997,Madras(India) 1999, Caen (France) 2000, Philadelphia (USA) 2001, Palermo (Italy) 2003, Auckland (New Zealand) 2004, Berlin (Germany) 2006, and Bu?alo (USA) 2008. Imageanalysisisa scienti?c discipline whichprovidestheoreticalfoundations and methods for solving problems appearing in a range of areas as diverse as biology,medicine,physics,astronomy,geography,chemistry,robotics,andind- trial manufacturing. It deals with algorithms and methods aimed at extracting meaningful information from images. The processing is done through computer systems, and the focus is, therefore, on images presented in digital form. Unlike traditional approaches, which are based on continuous models requiring ?oat arithmetic computations and rounding, “combinatorial” approaches to image analysis (also named “discrete” or “digital” approaches) are based on studying the combinatorial properties of the digital images. They provide models and - gorithms, which are generally more e?cient and accurate than those based on continuous models. Some recent combinatorial approaches aim at constructing self-contained digital topology and geometry, which might be of interest and - portancenot only for imageanalysis,but also asa distinct theoretical discipline. Following the call for papers, IWCIA 2009 received 70 submissions. After a rigorous review process, 32 were accepted for inclusion in this volume.

Download or read book Information Theory for Data Communications and Processing written by Shlomo Shamai (Shitz) and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-01-13 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern, current, and future communications/processing aspects motivate basic information-theoretic research for a wide variety of systems for which we do not have the ultimate theoretical solutions (for example, a variety of problems in network information theory as the broadcast/interference and relay channels, which mostly remain unsolved in terms of determining capacity regions and the like). Technologies such as 5/6G cellular communications, Internet of Things (IoT), and mobile edge networks, among others, not only require reliable rates of information measured by the relevant capacity and capacity regions, but are also subject to issues such as latency vs. reliability, availability of system state information, priority of information, secrecy demands, energy consumption per mobile equipment, sharing of communications resources (time/frequency/space), etc. This book, composed of a collection of papers that have appeared in the Special Issue of the Entropy journal dedicated to “Information Theory for Data Communications and Processing”, reflects, in its eleven chapters, novel contributions based on the firm basic grounds of information theory. The book chapters address timely theoretical and practical aspects that constitute both interesting and relevant theoretical contributions, as well as direct implications for modern current and future communications systems.
Download or read book Medial Representations written by Kaleem Siddiqi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-09-08 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last half century has seen the development of many biological or physical t- ories that have explicitly or implicitly involved medial descriptions of objects and other spatial entities in our world. Simultaneously mathematicians have studied the properties of these skeletal descriptions of shape, and, stimulated by the many areas where medial models are useful, computer scientists and engineers have developed numerous algorithms for computing and using these models. We bring this kno- edge and experience together into this book in order to make medial technology more widely understood and used. The book consists of an introductory chapter, two chapters on the major mat- matical results on medial representations, ?ve chapters on algorithms for extracting medial models from boundary or binary image descriptions of objects, and three chapters on applications in image analysis and other areas of study and design. We hope that this book will serve the science and engineering communities using medial models and will provide learning material for students entering this ?eld. We are fortunate to have recruited many of the world leaders in medial theory, algorithms, and applications to write chapters in this book. We thank them for their signi?cant effort in preparing their contributions. We have edited these chapters and have combined them with the ?ve chapters that we have written to produce an integrated whole.
Download or read book High Throughput Analysis written by Radislav A. Potyrailo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, edited by Potyrailo and Amis, addresses a new paradigm-shifting approach in the search for new materials-Combinatorial Materials Science. One way to consider such an approach is to imagine an adventurous chef who decides to look for new entrees by cooking food ingredients in many pots using different combinations in every pot, and boil ing, steaming, or frying them in various ways. Although most of the pots will not have the tastiest food ever devised, some recipes will taste intriguing, and some eventually will lead to a discovery of a new fascinating cuisine. Of course, having a skilled chef design the com binatorial formulation will certainly be helpful in ensuring a successful outcome. Similar to food, each engineering material is a complex product of its chemical composition, structure, and processing. Generally, each of these components matters---change one and you get another material. Most of these "new" materials will be less good than ones we use now since existing materials have been refined with the extensive work of scientists and engi neers. At the same time if one prepares diverse materials like our adventurous chef, chang ing material composition, processing conditions and time, etc. , some of these materials will be superior to existing ones and a few might represent breakout technology.
Download or read book Document and Image Compression written by Mauro Barni and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it's true that image compression research is a mature field, continued improvements in computing power and image representation tools keep the field spry. Faster processors enable previously intractable compression algorithms and schemes, and certainly the demand for highly portable high-quality images will not abate. Document and Image Compression highlights the current state of the field along with the most probable and promising future research directions for image coding. Organized into three broad sections, the book examines the currently available techniques, future directions, and techniques for specific classes of images. It begins with an introduction to multiresolution image representation, advanced coding and modeling techniques, and the basics of perceptual image coding. This leads to discussions of the JPEG 2000 and JPEG-LS standards, lossless coding, and fractal image compression. New directions are highlighted that involve image coding and representation paradigms beyond the wavelet-based framework, the use of redundant dictionaries, the distributed source coding paradigm, and novel data-hiding techniques. The book concludes with techniques developed for classes of images where the general-purpose algorithms fail, such as for binary images and shapes, compound documents, remote sensing images, medical images, and VLSI layout image data. Contributed by international experts, Document and Image Compression gathers the latest and most important developments in image coding into a single, convenient, and authoritative source.
