1st Edition
by Pijush K. Ghosh (Author), Koichiro Deguchi (Author)
Image processing problems are often not well defined because realimages are contaminated with noise and other uncertain factors. InMathematics of Shape Description, the authors take amathematical approach to address these problems using themorphological and set-theoretic approach to image processing andcomputer graphics by presenting a simple shape model using twobasic shape operators called Minkowski addition and decomposition.
This
book is ideal for professional researchers and engineers inInformation
Processing, Image Measurement, Shape Description, ShapeRepresentation
and Computer Graphics. Post-graduate and advancedundergraduate students
in pure and applied mathematics, computersciences, robotics and
engineering will also benefit from thisbook.
