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.
Owing to the rapid developments and growth in the telecommunications industry, the need to develop relevant skills in this field are in high demand. Wireless technology helps to exchange the information between portable devices situated globally. In order to fulfil the demands of this developing field, a unified approach between fundamental concepts and advanced topics is required. The book bridges the gap with a focus on key concepts along with the latest developments including turbo coding, smart antennas, multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system, and software defined radio. It also underpins the design requirements of wireless systems and provides comprehensive coverage of the cellular system and its generations: 3G and 4G (Long Term Evolution). With numerous solved examples, numerical questions, open book exam questions, and illustrations, undergraduates and graduate students will find this to be a readable and highly useful text.
Signal processing is everywhere in modern technology. Its mathematical basis and many areas of application are the subject of this book, based on a series of graduate-level lectures held at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute. Emphasis is on challenges in the subject, particular techniques adapted to particular technologies, and certain advances in algorithms and theory. The book covers two main areas: computational harmonic analysis, envisioned as a technology for efficiently analysing real data using inherent symmetries; and the challenges inherent in the acquisition, processing and analysis of images and sensing data in general [EMDASH] ranging from sonar on a submarine to a neuroscientist's fMRI study.
