The Handbook of Computer Vision and Applications, Three-Volume Set is on one of the "hottest" subjects in today's intersection of Applied Physics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Applied Mathematics.The uniqueness of this set is that it is very applications-oriented. Examples of applications in different fields of modern science are particularly emphasized. In addition, a CD-ROM is included with each of the three volumes. Key Features* Presents an interdisciplinary approach to the basics and the state-of-the-art of computer vision, written in a way that is understandable for a broad audience* Covers modern concepts in computer vision and modern developments of technical imaging sensors* Bridges the gap between theory and practical applications* Features the entire text of the handbook on CD-ROM with hyperlinks for quick searching and browsing* Includes a rich collection of additional material on the CD-ROM: reference material, interactive software components, code examples, image material, and references to sources on the Internet
