Aspects of Social Change in Modern Japan (Princeton Legacy Library)
by Ronald Philip Dore
This is an examination of the consequences of Japan's rapid industrialization upon interpersonal relations. Based upon current theories of Western experiences with modernization, these studies show that the Eastern changes do not conform to Western patterns. Originally published in 1967. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions prese...
This text covers topic such as: ultra-fast lasers and detectors; ultra-fast optical modulators; microwave and millimetre-wave modulated optical signal generation techniques; analogues optical fibber; high-speed optical analogue to digital converstion; and satellite-based application.
Enhancement and Restoration of Digital Documents (Press Monographs)
by Robert P. Loce and Edward R. Dougherty
A guide to digital document enhancement and restoration. Topics addressed include: the language and working definitions of the field; industry practices; the document image class; logic-based image processing; and algorithms for performing enhancement and restoration.
This book provides the reader with an understanding of what color is, where color comes from, and how color can be used correctly in many different applications. The authors first treat the physics of light and its interaction with matter at the atomic level, so that the origins of color can be appreciated. The intimate relationship between energy
Real-time Imaging
A guide to the theory, techniques and applications of real-time imaging. It covers real-time motion estimation, real-time image regularization, multimedia compression techniques and standards, and real-time image processing for automobile applications.
Time-Frequency Domain for Segmentation and Classification of Non-stationary Signals
by Ali Moukadem, Djaffar Ould Abdeslam, and Alain Dieterlen
This book focuses on signal processing algorithms based on the timefrequency domain. Original methods and algorithms are presented which are able to extract information from non-stationary signals such as heart sounds and power electric signals. The methods proposed focus on the time-frequency domain, and most notably the Stockwell Transform for the feature extraction process and to identify signatures. For the classification method, the Adaline Neural Network is used and compared with other com...
Whilst most literature in the field of colour science focuses on the basic principles and the mechanics of colour reproduction systems this book concentrates on the optimization of colour reproduction systems. A brief introduction to the fundamentals of colour reproduction is provided before the authors move on to present advanced information on optimization techniques and reproduction quality. * Written by two respected figures in the colour engineering community. * The only book to focus on co...

Image Acquisition and Processing with LabVIEW, Second Edition (Image Processing, v. 5)
by Christopher G. Relf and Michael C. Ashe
Image Acquisition and Processing With LabVIEWa combines the general theory of image acquisition and processing, the underpinnings of LabVIEW and the NI Vision toolkit, examples of their applications, and real-world case studies in a clear, systematic, and richly illustrated presentation. Designed for LabVIEW programmers, it fills a significant gap in the technical literature by providing a general training manual for those new to National Instruments (NI) Vision application development and a ref...
Color Management (The Wiley-IS&T Series in Imaging Science and Technology, #17)
Color Management serves as a comprehensive guide to the implementation of the ICC (International Color Consortium) profile specification, widely used for maintaining color fidelity across multi-media imaging devices and software. The book draws together many of the White Papers produced by the ICC to promote the use of color management and disseminate good practice; the ICC specification has become widely accepted within the color industry, and these papers have been updated, expanded and edite...
