This book gives a concise introduction to both image and video
processing, providing a balanced coverage between theory,
applications and standards. It gives an introduction to both 2-D
and 3-D signal processing theory, supported by an introduction to
random processes and some essential results from information
theory, providing the necessary foundation for a full understanding
of the image and video processing concepts that follow. A
significant new feature is the explanation of practical network
coding methods for image and video transmission. There is also
coverage of new approaches such as: super-resolution methods,
non-local processing, and directional transforms.
This book also has on-line support that contains many short
MATLAB programs that complement examples and exercises on
multidimensional signal, image, and video processing. There are
numerous short video clips showing applications in video processing
and coding, plus a copy of the vidview video player for playing
.yuv video files on a Windows PC and an illustration of the effect
of packet loss on H.264/AVC coded bitstreams.
New to this edition:
New appendices on random processes, information theory
New coverage of image analysis - edge detection, linking,
clustering, and segmentation
Expanded coverage on image sensing and perception, including
color spaces.
Now summarizes the new MPEG coding standards: scalable video
coding (SVC) and multiview video coding (MVC), in addition to
coverage of H.264/AVC.
Updated video processing material including new example on
scalable video coding and more material on object- and region-based
video coding.
More on video coding for networks including practical network
coding (PNC), highlighting the significant advantages of PNC for
both video downloading and streaming.
New coverage of super-resolution methods for image and
video.
Only R&D level tutorial that gives an integrated treatment of
image and video processing - topics that are interconnected.
New chapters on introductory random processes, information theory,
and image enhancement and analysis
Coverage and discussion of the latest standards in video coding:
H.264/AVC and the new scalable video standard (SVC)
