Color Image Processing with Biomedical Applications - Hardcover

This full-color book begins with a detailed study of the nature of color images-including natural, multispectral, and pseudocolor images-and covers acquisition, quality control, and display of color images, as well as issues of noise and artifacts in color images and segmentation for the detection of regions of interest or objects. The book is primarily written with the (post-)graduate student in mind, but practicing engineers, researchers, computer scientists, information technologists, medical physicists, and data-processing specialists will also benefit from its depth of information. Those working in diverse areas such as DIP, computer vision, pattern recognition, telecommunications, seismic and geophysical applications, biomedical applications, hospital information systems, remote sensing, mapping, and geomatics may find this book useful in their quest to learn advanced techniques for the analysis of color or multichannel images.
