Across three volumes, the Handbook of Image Processing and Computer Vision presents a comprehensive review of the full range of topics that comprise the field of computer vision, from the acquisition of signals and formation of images, to learning techniques for scene understanding. The authoritative insights presented within cover all aspects of the sensory subsystem required by an intelligent system to perceive the environment and act autonomously. Volume 1 (From Energy to Image) examines the formation, properties, and enhancement of a digital image.Topics and features:•Describes the fundamental processes in the field of artificial vision that enable the formation of digital images from light energy•Covers light propagation, color perception, optical systems, and the analog-to-digital conversion of the signal•Discusses the information recorded in a digital image, and the image processing algorithms that can improve the visual qualities of theimage•Reviews boundary extraction algorithms, key linear and geometric transformations, and techniques for image restoration•Presents a selection of different image segmentation algorithms, and of widely-used algorithms for the automatic detection of points of interest•Examines important algorithms for object recognition, texture analysis, 3D reconstruction, motion analysis, and camera calibration•Provides an introduction to four significant types of neural network, namely RBF, SOM, Hopfield, and deep neural networksThis all-encompassing survey offers a complete reference for all students, researchers, and practitioners involved in developing intelligent machine vision systems. The work is also an invaluable resource for professionals within the IT/software and electronics industries involved in machine vision, imaging, and artificial intelligence.Dr. Cosimo Distante is a Research Scientist in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition inthe Institute of Applied Sciences and Intelligent Systems (ISAI) at the Italian National Research Council (CNR). Dr. Arcangelo Distante is a researcher and the former Director of the Institute of Intelligent Systems for Automation (ISSIA) at the CNR.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Image Processing and Vision Engineering, IMPROVE 2025, held in Porto, Portugal, during April 7–8, 2025.The 9 full papers and 11 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions.

This book provides a broad overview of both the technical challenges in sensor network development, and the real-world applications of distributed sensing. Important aspects of distributed computing in large-scale networked sensor systems are analyzed in the context of human behavior understanding, including topics on systems design tools and techniques. Additionally, the book examines a varied range of applications. Features: contains valuable contributions from an international selection of leading experts in the field; presents a high-level introduction to the aims and motivations underpinning distributed sensing; describes decision-making algorithms in the presence of complex sensor networks; provides a detailed analysis of the design, implementation, and development of a distributed network of homogeneous or heterogeneous sensors; reviews the application of distributed sensing to human behavior understanding and autonomous intelligent vehicles; includes a helpful glossary and a list of acronyms.

This book constitutes the refereed contest reports of the 1st International Workshop, VAAM 2014, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in August 2014.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Advanced Concepts for Intelligent Vision Systems, ACIVS 2016, held in Lecce, Italy, in October 2016. The 64 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully selected from 137 submissions.
