implementation but omitting some image processing theory; Jain, R. C., Kasturi, R. and
Schunk, B. G.: Machine Vision (Jain, 1995) offers concise and modern coverage of 3D and
motion (there is an on-line website at http://vision.cse.psu.edu/ with code
and images, together with corrections); Gonzalez, R. C. and Wintz, P.: Digital Image
Processing (Gonzalez, 1987) has more tutorial element than many of the basically theoretical
texts; Rosenfeld, A. and Kak, A. C.: Digital Picture Processing (Rosenfeld and Kak, 1982)
is rather dated now, but is a well-proven text for much of the basic material; and Pratt, W.
K.: Digital Image Processing (Pratt, 1992) which was originally one of the earliest topics
on image processing and, like Rosenfeld and Kak, is a well-proven text for much of the
basic material, particularly image transforms. Despite its name, the recent text called
Active Contours (Blake, 1998) concentrates rather more on models of motion and deformation
and probabalistic treatment of shape and motion, than on the active contours which we
shall find here. As such it is a more research text, reviewing many of the advanced techniques
to describe shapes and their motion. A recent text in this field, Image Processing - The
Fundamentals (Petrou, 1999) surveys the subject (as its title implies) from an image
processing viewpoint covering not only image transforms, but also restoration and
enhancement before edge detection. The latter of these is most appropriate for one of the
major contributors to that subject. Also, Kasturi, R. and Jain, R. C. (eds): Computer Vision:
Principles (Kasturi, 1991a) and Computer Vision: Advances and Applications (Kasturi,
1991b) presents a collection of seminal papers in computer vision, many of which are cited
in their original form (rather than in this volume) in later chapters. There are other interesting
edited collections (Chellappa, 1992), one edition (Bowyer, 1996) honours Azriel Rosenfeld's
many contributions.
Books which include a software implementation include: Lindley, C. A.: Practical
Image Processing in C (Lindley, 1991) and Pitas, I.: Digital Image Processing Algorithms
(Pitas, 1993) which both cover basic image processing and computer vision algorithms.
