Series in Machine Perception and Artificial Intelligence - Vol. 18

VLSI AND PARALLEL COMPUTING FOR PATTERN RECOGNITION AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

edited by N Ranganathan (University of South Florida)

This book covers parallel algorithms and architectures and VLSI chips for a range of problems in image processing, computer vision, pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. The specific problems addressed include vision and image processing tasks, Fast Fourier Transforms, Hough Transforms, Discrete Cosine Transforms, image compression, polygon matching, template matching, pattern matching, fuzzy expert systems and image rotation. The collection of papers gives the reader a good introduction to the state-of-the-art, while for an expert this serves as a good reference and a source of some new contributions in this field.
