The problem of scale pervades both the natural sciences and the vi sual arts. The earliest scientific discussions concentrate on visual per ception (much like today!) and occur in Euclid's (c. 300 B. C. ) Optics and Lucretius' (c. 100-55 B. C. ) On the Nature of the Universe. A very clear account in the spirit of modern "scale-space theory" is presented by Boscovitz (in 1758), with wide ranging applications to mathemat ics, physics and geography. Early applications occur in the cartographic problem of "generalization", the central idea being that a map in order to be useful has to be a "generalized" (coarse grained) representation of the actual terrain (Miller and Voskuil 1964). Broadening t...
Advances in Imaging and Electron Physics features cutting-edge articles on the physics of electron devices (especially semiconductor devices), particle optics at high and low energies, microlithography, image science and digital image processing, electromagnetic wave propagation, electron microscopy, and the computing methods used in all these domains. - Contributions from leading authorities - Informs and updates on all the latest developments in the field
Gaussian scale-space is one of the best understood multi-resolution techniques available to the computer vision and image analysis community. It is the purpose of this book to guide the reader through some of its main aspects. During an intensive weekend in May 1996 a workshop on Gaussian scale-space theory was held in Copenhagen, which was attended by many of the leading experts in the field. The bulk of this book originates from this workshop. Presently there exist only two books on the subject. In contrast to Lindeberg's monograph (Lindeberg, 1994e) this book collects contributions from several scale space researchers, whereas it complements the book edited by ter Haar Romeny (Haar Romeny...
This book contains 31 selected papers (out of 136 accepted) from the 9th Scandinavian Conference on Image Analysis, held in Uppsala, Sweden, 6?9 June 1995. They represent the very best of what is currently done in image analysis, world-wide, describing very recent work. The papers have been both considerably expanded and updated compared to the version in the conference proceedings, giving the readers a much better understanding of the issues at hand.The papers cover both theory and successful applications. There are chapters on Edges and Curves, d104ure, Depth and Stereo, Scene Analysis, and 3D Motion, thus covering the chain from feature extraction to computer vision. Two important application areas are covered: Medical and Industrial.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Scale Space and Variational Methods in Computer Vision, SSVM 2015, held in Lège-Cap Ferret, France, in May 2015. The 56 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 83 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: scale space and partial differential equation methods; denoising, restoration and reconstruction, segmentation and partitioning; flow, motion and registration; photography, texture and color processing; shape, surface and 3D problems; and optimization theory and methods in imaging.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Scale Space and Variational Methods in Computer Vision, SSVM 2017, held in Kolding, Denmark, in June 2017. The 55 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 77 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Scale Space and PDE Methods; Restoration and Reconstruction; Tomographic Reconstruction; Segmentation; Convex and Non-Convex Modeling and Optimization in Imaging; Optical Flow, Motion Estimation and Registration; 3D Vision.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Scale-Space Theory for Computer Vision, Scale-Space '97, held in Utrecht, The Netherlands, in July 1997. The volume presents 21 revised full papers selected from a total of 41 submissions. Also included are 2 invited papers and 13 poster presentations. This book is the first comprehensive documentation of the application of Scale-Space techniques in computer vision and, in the broader context, in image processing and pattern recognition.
The refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Scale Space Methods in Computer Vision, Scale-Space 2003, held at Isle of Skye, UK in June 2003. The 56 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 101 submissions. The book offers topical sections on deep structure representations, scale space mathematics, equivalences, implementing scale spaces, minimal approaches, evolution equations, local structure, image models, morphological scale spaces, temporal scale spaces, shape, and motion and stereo.
The book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Workshop on Algebraic Frames for the Perception-Action Cycle, AFPAC '97, held in Kiel, Germany, in September 1997. The volume presents 12 revised full papers carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. Also included are 10 full invited papers by leading researchers in the area providing a representative state-of-the-art assessment of this rapidly growing field. The papers are organized in topical sections on PAC systems, low level and early vision, recognition of visual structure, processing of 3D visual space, representation and shape perception, inference and action, and visual and motor neurocomputation.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Scale-Space and Morphology in Computer Vision, Scale-Space 2001, held in Vancouver, Canada in July 2001. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 23 posters were carefully reviewed and selected from 60 submissions. The book addresses all current aspects of scale-space and morphology in the context of computer vision, in particular, vector distance functions, optic flow, image registration, curve evolution, morphological segmentation, scalar images, vector images, automatic scale selection, geometric diffusion, diffusion filtering, image filtering, inverse problems, active contours, etc.
