New material includes image processing and colour, sine and cosine transforms, Independent Component Analysis (ICA), phase congruency and the monogenic signal and several other new topics. These updates are combined with coverage of classic topics in image processing, such as orthogonal transforms and image enhancement, making this a truly comprehensive text on the subject.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e   \u003cp\u003eKey features:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePresents material at two levels of difficulty: the main text addresses the fundamental concepts and presents a broad view of image processing, whilst more advanced material is interleaved in boxes throughout the text, providing further reference for those who wish to examine each technique in depth.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContains a large number of fully worked out examples.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFocuses on an understanding of how image processing methods work in practice.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIllustrates complex algorithms on a step-by-step basis, and lists not only the good practices but also identifies the pitfalls in each case.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUses a clear question and answer structure.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes a CD containing the MATLAB® code of the various examples and algorithms presented in the book.
