Book on Machine Vision

Professor Davies's book Machine Vision: Theory, Algorithms, Practicalities is widely used throughout the world by researchers and practitioners of the subject, and carries a wealth of detail on algorithms of importance to industrial and commercial applications of machine vision, as well as giving insight into the underlying theory. It was released in a much enlarged third edition in 2005 containing additional material on the following topics:

• 3-D and motion interpretation
• Invariants
• Camera calibration
• Artificial neural networks
• X-ray inspection and foreign object detection
• Mathematical morphology
• Texture analysis
• Robust statistics
