This book covers a wide range of both theoretical and practical applications of fuzzy filters for image processing. The focus is on problems of noise removal, edge detection and segmentation , image enhancement and further specific applications of fuzzy filters. It is demonstrated how soft computing techniques such as fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic can be successfully applied to this problems. Often these techniques are complementary to existing classical techniques and contribute to a more robust performance. The book is written by international experts giving an overview of the current state of the art of fuzzy filters for image processing and can be used as a reference for researchers and practitioners in the field.

Images have always been very important in human life. Their applications range from primitive communication between humans of all ages to advanced technologies in the industrial, medical and military field. The increased possibilities to capture and analyze images have contributed to the largeness that the scientific field of "image processing" has become today. Many techniques are being applied, including soft computing."Soft Computing in Image Processing: Recent Advances" follows the edited volumes "Fuzzy Techniques in Image Processing" (volume 52, published in 2000) and "Fuzzy Filters for Image Processing" (volume 122, published in 2003), and covers a wide range of both practical and theoretical applications of soft computing in image processing. The 16 excellent chapters of the book have been grouped into five parts: Applications in Remote Sensing, Applications in Image Retrieval, Applications in Image Analysis, Other Applications, and Theoretical Contributions. The focus of the book is on practical applications, which makes it interesting for every researcher that is involved with soft computing, image processing, or both scientific branches.
