From the book reviews:
The book refers to 350 of up-to-date sources and each chapter suggests sample problems and numerical exercises. ... it is a great book going much beyond a graduate course textbook, so it can be incredibly valuable for researchers in image computer sciences and various data analysis fields. (Stan Lipovetsky, Technometrics, Vol. 54 (4), November, 2012)
In addition to providing a very readable, deep, technical introduction to the subject, Fieguth provides a lot of insight, helpful tips, and examples ... . there is a useful discussion of how one may be able to model such that one ends up with sparse matrices, which are usually an ingredient of successful computing. ... The reviewer strongly recommends the book to those who wish to do this kind of image analysis. (Jayanta K. Ghosh, International Statistical Review, Vol. 80 (3), 2012)
This text by Paul Fieguth is concerned with statistical image processing. ... The scope of the book is wide, and it contains intriguing examples from many fields. ... The book would be an excellent reference book for a statistician or engineer with interests in image processing. It would also make a fine text for a graduate class ... . Overall this book is an excellent overview of the subject, successfully bridging the gap between the fields of statistics and engineering. (Daniel Walsh, Australian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics, Vol. 53 (3), 2011)
This monograph ... can serve as good introductory text in multidimensional signal and image processing for researchers and engineers specialized in interdisciplinary areas varying from machine vision systems and geology to biomedical engineering applications. ... this monograph can be used as textbook for graduate and postgraduate students who study multidimensional signal and image processing. (Denis Sidorov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1209, 2011)
Paul Fieguth is a professor in Systems Design Engineering at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. He has longstanding research interests in statistical signal and image processing, hierarchical algorithms, data fusion, and the interdisciplinary applications of such methods, particularly to problems in medical imaging, remote sensing, and scientific imaging.
