Book Description:

For courses in Image Processing and Computer Vision. Completely self-contained--and heavily illustrated--this introduction to basic concepts and methodologies for digital image processing is written at a level that truly is suitable for seniors and first-year graduate students in almost any technical discipline. The leading textbook in its field for more than twenty years, it continues its cutting-edge focus on contemporary developments in all mainstream areas of image processing--e.g., image fundamentals, image enhancement in the spatial and frequency domains, restoration, color image processing, wavelets, image compression, morphology, segmentation, image description, and the fundamentals of object recognition. It focuses on material that is fundamental and has a broad scope of application.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Rafael C. Gonzalez received the B.S.E.E. degree from the University of Miami in 1965 and the M.E. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Florida, Gainesville, in 1967 and 1970, respectively. He joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK) in 1970, where he became Associate Professor in 1973, Professor in 1978, and Distinguished Service Professor in 1984. He served as Chairman of the department from 1994 through 1997. He is currently a Professor Emeritus at UTK.

New to this Edition:

• New chapters on wavelets, image morphology, and color image processing.
• More than 500 new images and over 200 new line drawings and tables.
• A revision and update of all chapters, including topics such as segmentation by watersheds.
• Numerous new examples with processed images of higher resolution.
• A reorganization that allows the reader to get to the material on actual image processing much sooner than before.
• Updated image compression standards and a new section on compression using wavelets.
• A more intuitive development of traditional topics such as image transforms and image restoration.
• Updated bibliography.
