Part I presents the basic...

In this book, we study theoretical and practical aspects of computing methods for mathematical modelling of nonlinear systems. A number of computing techniques are considered, such as methods of operator approximation with any given accuracy; operator interpolation techniques including a non-Lagrange interpolation; methods of system...

With more and more images and videos being available in the compressed format, researchers have started taking interest in the aspect of designing algorithms for different image operations directly in their domains of representation. This would not only avoid the inverse and forward transformation steps and potentially make the...

Compressed Image File Formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, XBM, BMP examines the most common...

Written as an authoritative introduction, this text describes the technology of digital television broadcasting. It gives a thorough technical description of the underlying principles of the DVB standard following the logical progression of signal processing steps, as well as COFDM modulation, source and channel coding, MPEG compression and...

This book collects a wealth of information about spatial audio coding into one comprehensible volume. It is a thorough reference to the 3GPP and MPEG Parametric Stereo standards and the MPEG Surround multi-channel audio coding standard. It describes key developments in coding techniques, which is an important factor in the optimization of...

The Second Edition of the best-selling Handbook of Computer Vision Algorithms in Image Algebra, continues to provide an outstanding introduction to Image Algebra. It describes more than 80 fundamental computer vision techniques and introduces the portable iac++ library, which supports image algebra programming in the C++ language. Revisions to...
