Computer vision : algorithms and applications

Abstract

Computer Vision: Algorithms and Applications explores the variety of techniques used to analyze and interpret images. It also describes challenging real-world applications where vision is being successfully used, both in specialized applications such as image search and autonomous navigation, as well as for fun, consumer-level tasks that students can apply to their own personal photos and videos. More than just a source of "recipes" this exceptionally authoritative and comprehensive textbook/reference takes a scientific approach to the formulation of computer vision problems.
