Digital Image Processing with C++

1.Introduction

Whom is this book for?

With this book, we would like to offer you an enchanting, yet pragmatic walk through the wonderful world of image processing:

• Enchanting, because image processing is a vast and captivating universe, resting on diversified but solid theoretical bases, which are used as well to model and propose efficient algorithms to solve problems. The number of amusing and/or practical applications that can be imagined and implemented in image processing is potentially infinite.

• Pragmatic, because we do not want to make a simple overview of the different formalisms. We will try to make each of the techniques discussed tangible, by systematically “translating” the theoretical points presented in the form of functional ...
