Machine vision comprises three integrated processes: acquisition, preprocessing, and image analysis. While many resources discuss application-specific image analysis, there has been no unified account of image acquisition hardware and preprocessing - until now. 
 Image Acquisition and Preprocessing for Machine Vision Systems is a comprehensive, exhaustive reference text detailing every aspect of acquisition and preprocessing, from the illumination of a scene to the optics of image forming, from CCD and CMOS image capture to the transformation of the captured image. 
 This book bridges the gaps between hardware and software on one hand and theory and applications on the other. With its detailed coverage of imaging hardware and derivations of preprocessing kernels, it is an invaluable design reference for students, researchers, application and product engineers, and systems integrators. 
 Distinctive features of the book include: * Detailed theories of CCD and CMOS image sensors, image formation, scene illumination, and camera calibration. * Unique combination of operational details of imaging hardware (front-end electronics) and analytical theories of low-level image-processing functions. * Coverage of image-acquisition modules and preprocessing functions within a unified framework. * Derivation of 2D image-processing functions from first principles by extending 1D signal-processing concepts.

"Medicinal plants are thought only in terms of their use in human or animal therapy. Of late, there has been a growing trend in the use of plant products in the management of pests and diseases commonly occur in crop plants. But, hardly there has been any thought that medicinal plants are also plants and diseases may equally affect them. However, investigations to detect and evaluate the pathogens causing heavy losses are still incomplete and need high priority. Obviously, information on diseases of medicinal plants is incomplete rather lacking. Therefore, it is felt that there is an urgent need to compile a treatise like 'Recent Progress in Medicinal Plants: Diseases and their Management' that can serve as a valuable document to those concerning medicinal plants. The book has been compiled out of contributions from the authors working on diseases of medicinal plants. Information on diseases caused by fungi, bacteria, viruses, phytoplasmas and nematodes has been given covering details of the symptoms, etiology, perpetuation and management along with colour photographs on more than 90 medicinal crops wherever information are available. Sixteen chapters have been allotted covering up-to-date information. Plant pathologists, biotechnologists, ecologists, herbalists, progressive growers, industrialists, academicians, teachers and students will definitely find this book immensely useful.
