Introduction to Digital Image Processing with Matlab 1st Edition  (English, Paperback, Mcandrew Alasdair)

This book is an introduction to digital image processing from an elementary perspective. Providing a broad introduction to the discipline, the book covers topics that can be introduced with simple mathematics so students can learn the concepts without getting overwhelmed by mathematical detail. The first three chapters set the scene for the rest of the book by exploring the nature and use of digital images and how they can be obtained, stored, and displayed. By using MATLAB and its Image Processing Toolbox, students will be able to apply the theory they have learned into practice.

Key Feature

• Based entirely around MATLAB and its Image Processing Toolbox providing a complete environment for image processing that is easy to use, explain, and extend
• All the example images in the text are accompanied by MATLAB commands so students can create the images as given in the text
• Some of the exercises are "pencil-and-paper" to enhance understanding. Others are MATLAB-based to explore algorithms and methods covered in the chapter
• Focuses on mathematics for computer science students; so that one year's exposure to calculus, linear algebra, and logical foundations should be sufficient
