Cellular Automata in Image Processing and GeometryAuthor(s): Paul Rosin, Andrew Adamatzky, Xianfang Sun\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer International Publishing AG\nISBN-13: 9783319064307, 978-3319064307\nSynopsis\nThe book presents findings, views and ideas on what exact problems of image processing, pattern recognition and generation can be efficiently solved by cellular automata architectures. This volume provides a convenient collection in this area, in which publications are otherwise widely scattered throughout the literature. The topics covered include image compression and resizing; skeletonization, erosion and dilation; convex hull computation, edge detection and segmentation; forgery detection and content based retrieval; and pattern generation. \n\nThe book advances the theory of image processing, pattern recognition and generation as well as the design of efficient algorithms and hardware for parallel imag.
