This book covers the technology of digital image processing in various fields with big data and their applications. Readers will understand various technologies and strategies used in digital image processing as well as handling big data, using machine-learning techniques. This book will help to improve the skills of students and researchers in such fields as engineering, agriculture, and medical imaging. There is a need to be able to understand and analyse the latest developments of digital image technology. As such, this book will cover:· Applications such as biomedical science and biometric image processing, content-based image retrieval, remote sensing, pattern recognition, shape and texture analysis· New concepts in color interpolation to produce the full color from the sub-pattern bare pattern color prevalent in today's digital cameras and other imaging devices· Image compression standards that are needed to serve diverse applications· Applications of remote sensing, medical science, traffic management, education, innovation, and analysis in agricultural design and image processing· Both soft and hard computing approaches at great length in relation to major image processing tasks· The direction and development of current and future research in many areas of image processing· A comprehensive bibliography for additional research (integrated within the framework of the book)This book focuses not only on theoretical and practical knowledge in the field but also on the traditional and latest tools and techniques adopted in image processing and data science. It also provides an indispensable guide to a wide range of basic and advanced techniques in the fields of image processing and data science.

This book highlights progress in terms of Virus Biology and Infection Detection, Prevention, and Control, along with Screening, Testing, and Detection Techniques, that will provide learners and researchers (from basic to advanced) with the most innovative computer-driven methodologies for the fight against COVID-19. In addition, this book also covers the Pre- and Post-Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic Crisis that will definitely provide useful content for researchers to think broadly about the analytical areas affected by COVID-19. This ultimately shows different paths to the same destination to help understand the nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and how to avoid it in the future.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have attracted high interest over the last few decades in the wireless and mobile computing research community. Applications of WSNs are numerous and growing, including indoor deployment scenarios in the home and office to outdoor deployment in an adversary’s territory in a tactical background. However, due to their distributed nature and deployment in remote areas, these networks are vulnerable to numerous security threats that can adversely affect their performance.This problem is more critical if the network is deployed for some mission-critical applications, such as in a tactical battlefield. Random failure of nodes is also very likely in real-life deployment scenarios. Due to resource constraints in the sensor nodes, a traditional security mechanism with high overhead of computation and communication is not feasible in WSNs. Design and implementation of secure WSNs is, therefore, a particularly challenging task.This book covers a comprehensive discussion on state-of-the-art security technologies for WSNs. It identifies various possible attacks at different layers of the communication protocol stack in a typical WSN and presents their possible countermeasures. A brief discussion on the future direction of research in WSN security is also included.
