Bézier and Splines in Image Processing and Machine Vision (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Digital image processing and machine vision have grown considerably during the last few decades. Of the various techniques, developed so far, splines play a significant role in many of them. This book deals with various image processing and machine vision problems efficiently with splines and includes: the significance of Bernstein Polynomial in splines, detailed coverage of Beta-splines applications which are relatively new, Splines in motion tracking, various deformative models and their uses.

Finally the book covers wavelet splines which are efficient and effective in different image applications.
