Image processing and image analysis are typically important fields in information science and technology. By “image processing”, we generally understand all kinds of operation performed on images (or sequences of images) in order to increase their quality, restore their original content, emphasize some particular aspect of the information or optimize their transmission, or to perform radiometric and/or spatial analysis. By “image analysis” we understand, however, all kinds of operation performed on images (or sequences of images) in order to extract qualitative or quantitative data, perform measurements and apply statistical analysis. Whereas there are nowadays many books dealing with image processing, only a small number deal with image analysis. The methods and techniques involved in these fields of course have a wide range of applications in our daily world: industrial vision, material imaging, medical imaging, biological imaging, multimedia applications, satellite imaging, quality control, traffic control, and so on INDICE: Preface Abstract Introduction Part I – An overview of gray tone image processing and analysis (IPA) Part II – The main mathematical frameworks for pixels and gray tones Part III – The main mathematical frameworks for gray tone images Part IV – Operators and functionals on gray tone images Part V – An overview of binary image processing and analysis Part VI – The four basic mathematical frameworks for binary images Part VII – The five main geometrical frameworks for binary images Part VIII – Three specific geometrical frameworks for binary images Part IX – Operators and functionals on binary images Part X – Two “hybrid” frameworks for gray tone and binary images Concluding Discussion Tables of notations and symbols Table of Latin locutions Index of acronyms Index of authors Index of subjects Bibliography References
