Download or read book From Pixels to Features II written by Hans Burkhardt and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1991 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parallelism in problems of low- and medium-level image processing and pattern recognition is the subject of this book. It covers the investigation of parallelism in algorithms and in fundamental methods of image processing and pattern recognition. Based on this, new concepts for parallel architectures are derived and their performance is evaluated. Different hardware structures such as SIMD, MIMD, data flow machines, transputer systems, neural networks and interconnection networks are described, including high-speed VLSI-implementations. Additional topics covered include software aspects and image processing systems.
