Book Description

Computer Vision Metrics provides an extensive survey and analysis of over 100 current and historical feature description and machine vision methods, with a detailed taxonomy for local, regional and global features. This book provides necessary background to develop intuition about why interest point detectors and feature descriptors actually work, how they are designed, with observations about tuning the methods for achieving robustness and invariance targets for specific applications.

The survey is broader than it is deep, with over 540 references provided to dig deeper. The taxonomy includes search methods, spectra components, descriptor representation, shape, distance functions, accuracy, efficiency, robustness and invariance attributes, and more. Rather than providing 'how-to' source code examples and shortcuts, this book provides a counterpoint discussion to the many fine opencv community source code resources available for hands-on practitioners.

• Distant Viewing: Computational Exploration of Digital Images

  This book presents a new theory and methodology for the application of computer vision methods to the computational analysis of collected, digitized visual materials, called “distant viewing”.

• Computer Vision: Algorithms and Applications, Second Edition

  This book explores the variety of techniques used to analyze and interpret images. It also describes challenging real-world applications where vision is being successfully used, both in specialized applications as well as for fun, consumer-level tasks.

• Computer Vision: Models, Learning, and Inference (Simon Prince)

  The book starts from the basics of probability and model fitting and works up to real examples that the reader can implement and modify to build useful vision systems. The detailed methodological presentation is useful for practitioners of computer vision.

• Programming Computer Vision with Python: Tools and Algorithms

  This book is a hands-on introduction to computer vision using Python. It gives an easily accessible entry point to hands-on computer vision with enough understanding of the underlying theory and algorithms to be a foundation for students, researchers.

• Digital Video Concepts, Methods, and Metrics (S. Akramullah)

  This book is a concise reference for professionals in a wide range of applications and vocations. It focuses on giving the reader mastery over the concepts, methods and metrics of digital video coding.

• Mastering OpenCV 4: Computer Vision & Image Processing Apps

  This book targets computer vision engineers taking their first steps toward mastering OpenCV. Keeping the mathematical formulations to a solid but bare minimum, it delivers complete projects from ideation to running code, targeting current hot topics, etc.

• Computer Vision (Dana H. Ballard, et al)

  This book is the construction of explicit, meaningful descriptions of physical objects from images. Image understanding is very different from image processing, which studies image-to-image transformations, not explicit description building.

• Computer Vision (Xiong Zhihui)

  This book presents computer vision on application of robotics, and on advanced approachs for computer vision (such as omnidirectional vision), research on RFID technology integrating stereo vision to localize an indoor mobile robot, etc.
