The generation, storage and processing of digital images plays a
fundamental role in the information technology revolution. Digital
imaging processing technology has developed markedly over the last
ten years and more and more information is being conveyed through
the display and analysis of digital images. The way in which image
data is stored and processed is fundamental to all aspects of IT.
Examples include remote sensing using the new generation of digital
satellites which carry a range of different sensors that, when
coupled with suitable image processing technology, can provide a
wealth of information to geologists, geographers and atmospheric
physicists used in everything from the exploration of oil and other
natural resources to environmental monitoring and agricultural
development in the Third World. Other examples include the use of
image processing in medical imaging for use in diagnosis using
conventional X-ray Computed Tomography to research into the
behaviour of the human brain using real time Magnetic Resonance
Imaging. This book consists of twenty-one papers which collectively
cover a broad range of image processing problems and the way on
which solutions to these problems are used in different area of
sciences and technology. The papers present details of the way in
which computers of varying processing power can be programmed to
store image efficiently, resolve features and patterns in an image
that are either time consuming or impossible for human interpreters
and develop machines that can `see', like humans. The book covers a
wide range of applications which include the use of lasers for
studying the dynamic behaviour of mechanical components, overviews
of image processing in remote sensing and medical imaging and the
application of a new form of geometry (fractal geometry) for
rcognizing patterns which is not possible with conventional data
processing. The book will be of value to any engineer, scientists
and technologist who wants to acquire information on current
research issues in image processing by reading a set of papers
prepared by some of the world's leading specialists.
