In Mathematics of Shape Description, the authors take a mathematical approach to address these problems using the morphological and set-theoretic approach to image processing and computer graphics by presenting a simple shape model using two basic shape operators called Minkowski addition and decomposition. This book is ideal for professional researchers and engineers in Information Processing, Image Measurement, Shape Description, Shape Representation and Geometry, AlgebraicMinkowski geometryImage processingMathematical modelsGeometry, Algebraic.Minkowski geometry.Image processingMathematical models.516.3/5Ghosh Pijush K1630182Deguchi Koichiro1630183MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825787703321Mathematics of shape description3968342UNINA
