The book covers theory and applications of computer vision highlighting recent advancements and with adequate treatment of foundation topics of image and signal processing, pattern recognition and machine learning, and projective and differential geometry. It also provides exposure to range imaging, medical imaging and remote sensing.
The textbook is primarily written for senior undergraduate and post graduate students studying in areas of computer science and engineering, and electrical engineering. However, as the subject covers various interdisciplinary areas, the book is also expected to be of interest to a larger readership in Science and Engineering. It has a comprehensive and balanced coverage of theory and applications of computer vision with a textbook approach providing worked out examples, and exercises. It covers theory and applications of some relatively recent advancements in technology such as on colour processing, deep learning techniques for processing images and videos, document processing, biometry, content based image retrieval, etc. It also delves with theories and processing in non-optical imaging systems, such as range or depth imaging, medical imaging and remote sensing imaging.
