A newly updated and revised edition of the classic introduction to digital image processing

The Fourth Edition of Digital Image Processing provides a complete introduction to the field and includes new information that updates the state of the art. The text offers coverage of new topics and includes interactive computer display imaging examples and computer programming exercises that illustrate the theoretical content of the book. These exercises can be implemented using the Programmer's Imaging Kernel System (PIKS) application program interface included on the accompanying CD.

Suitable as a textbook for students or as a reference for practitioners, this new edition provides a comprehensive treatment of these vital topics:

  • Characterization of continuous images
  • Image sampling and quantization techniques
  • Two-dimensional signal processing techniques
  • Image enhancement and restoration techniques
  • Image analysis techniques
  • Software implementation of image processing applications

In addition, the bundled CD includes:

  • A Solaris operating system executable version of the PIKS Scientific API
  • A Windows operating system executable version of PIKS Scientific
  • A Windows executable version of PIKSTool, a graphical user interface method of executing many of the PIKS Scientic operators without program compilation
  • A PDF file format version of the PIKS Scientific C programmer's reference manual
  • C program source demonstration programs
  • A digital image database of most of the source images used in the book plus many others widely used in the literature
About the Author

WILLIAM K. PRATT, PhD, has worked in imaging technology at the University of Southern California, Vicom Systems, Sun Microsystems, and, more recently, at PixelSoft. He is the author of numerous papers in the fields of communications and signal processing, and is the holder of several patents for image coding and image processing systems. He was one of the primary developers of the Programmer's Imaging Kernel System (PIKS) utilized in this volume.

How Mathematicians Think: Using Ambiguity, Contradiction, and Paradox to Create Mathematics
How Mathematicians Think: Using Ambiguity, Contradiction, and Paradox to Create Mathematics
To many outsiders, mathematicians appear to think like computers, grimly grinding away with a strict formal logic and moving methodically--even algorithmically--from one black-and-white deduction to another. Yet mathematicians often describe their most important breakthroughs as creative, intuitive responses to ambiguity, contradiction, and...

A Life-Course Perspective on Migration and Integration
A Life-Course Perspective on Migration and Integration

Over the last four decades the sociological life course approach with its focus on the interplay of structure and agency over time life course perspective has become an important research perspective in the social sciences. Yet, while it has successfully been applied to almost all fields of social inquiry it is much less used in research...

Mechanics of Oil and Gas Flow in Porous Media
Mechanics of Oil and Gas Flow in Porous Media

This book discusses various aspects of percolation mechanics. It starts with the driving forces and driving modes and then examines in detail the steady state percolation of single-phase incompressible fluids, percolation law of natural gas and percolation of non-Newtonian fluids. Progressing from simple to complex concepts, it also...
