Computer Vision

Computer vision is the field of science that is concerned with the development of computers to achieve high-level understanding using digital images or videos. It includes the processes of acquiring, processing and understanding of digital images. It also involves the extraction of data from the real world for the purpose of producing numerical or symbolic information. Some of the areas of interest in computer vision include scene reconstruction, object recognition, 3D pose interpretation, motion estimation, image restoration, etc. The applications of computer vision are in the development of artificial intelligence, surveillance, medical imaging, topographical modeling, navigation, among many others. This book brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of this discipline. From theories to research to practical applications, studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have also been included. This book attempts to assist those with a goal of delving into the field of computer vision.
