Image Processing, Computer Vision, and Pattern Recognition (The 2018 WorldComp International Conference Proceedings)

This book contains the proceedings of the 2018 International Conference on Image Processing, Computer Vision, and Pattern Recognition (IPCV'18).

The broad area of Imaging Science is a field that is mainly concerned with the generation, collection, analysis, modification, and visualization of images. The field is multidisciplinary in that it includes topics that are traditionally covered in computer science, physics, mathematics, electrical engineering, AI, psychology and information theory where computer science acts as the topical bridge between all such diverse areas (for a formal definition of Imaging Science, refer to relevant wiki pages). From the computer science perspective, the core of Imaging Science includes the following three intertwined computer science fields, namely: Image Processing, Computer Vision, and Pattern Recognition. The conference covers the research trends in these three important areas.
