PRENTICE/HALL

This book is a collection representing some of the most powerful and useful computer techniques in the service of art. Combining contributions from peer-reviewed journals of computer vision, image analysis, and art history with others written expressly for this volume, it presents a wide range of advanced computer imaging methods applied to the study of art. The book clarifies the assumptions underlying the possible use of each algorithm, provides examples of use and some of the art historical lessons learned through this use, and highlights available software. Art conservators, art historians, art educators, history students, computer image analysts, and computer graphics specialists will desire this fascinating volume.

The first edition, published in 1973, has become a classic reference in the field. Now with the second edition, readers will find information on key new topics such as neural networks and statistical pattern recognition, the theory of machine learning, and the theory of invariances. Also included are worked examples, comparisons between different methods, extensive graphics, expanded exercises and computer project topics.

Computer Manual to Accompany Pattern Classification and its associated MATLAB software is an excellent companion to Duda: Pattern Classfication, 2nd ed, (DH&amp;S). The code contains all algorithms described in Duda as well as supporting algorithms for data generation and visualization. The Manual uses the same terminology as the DH&amp;S text and contains step-by-step worked examples, including many of the examples and figures in the textbook. The Manual is accompanied by software that is available electronically. The software contains all algorithms in DH&amp;S, indexed to the textbook, and uses symbols and notation as close as possible to the textbook. The code is self-annotating so the user can easily navigate, understand and modify the code.

Computer Manual in MATLAB to Accompany Pattern Classification, Second Edition

Yom-Tov, Elad

The most complete and lucid nonmathematical study of light available. Chapters are self-contained, making the book flexible and easy to read. Coverage includes such non-traditional topics as processes of vision and the eye, atmospherical optical phenomena, color perception and illusions, color in nature and in art, Kirilian photography, and holography. Includes experiments that can be carried out with simple equipment. Chapters contain optional advanced sections, and appendixes review the mathematics for quantitative aspects. Illustrated, including a four-color insert.

Computer Manual (MATHEMATICA version) to accompany Pattern Classification, Third Edition, and its associated software contains all the MATHEMATICA code for the dynamic figures in the electronic version of PATTERN CLASSIFICATION, 3/e, (Duda, Hart, and Stork) as well as for core algorithms in pattern classification, clustering, and feature extraction described in the text. The code is cross-referenced with the material from the textbook, and uses the same terminology and symbols, so that the conceptual link from course material to working code is tight.

Computer Manual in Mathematica to Accompany Pattern Classification

Sathyanarayana, Shashidhar

Finally, a book on the physics of light that doesn’t require advanced mathematics to understand. Seeing the Light is the most accessible and comprehensive study of optics and light on the market. With a focus on conceptual study, Seeing the Light leaves the heavy-duty mathematics behind, instead using practical analogies and simple empirical experiments to teach the material. Each chapter is a self-contained lesson, making it easy to learn about specific optical concepts without having to read the whole book over. Inside you’ll find clear and easy-to-understand explanations of topics including: <ul>
<li> Processes of vision and the eye</li> <li> Atmospherical optical phenomena</li> <li> Color perception and illusions</li> <li> Color in nature and in art</li> <li> Digital photography</li> <li> Holography</li> <li> And more</li> </ul>
Diagrams, photos, and illustrations help bring difficult concepts to life, and optional sections at the ends of chapters explore the more advanced aspects of each topic. A truly one of a kind book for physics students and teachers, this updated edition of Seeing the Light is not to be missed.
