Foundations of Computer Vision Computational Geometry, Visual Image Structures and Object Shape Detection

This book introduces the fundamentals of computer vision (CV), with a focus on extracting useful information from digital images and videos. Including a wealth of methods used in detecting and classifying image objects and their shapes, it is the first book to apply a trio of tools (computational ge...
