    SPATIAL COMPUTING: ISSUES IN VISION, MULTIMEDIA AND VISUALIZATION TECHNOLOGIES

    edited by T Caelli (Curtin University of Technology) , P Lam (Curtin University of Technology) , & H Bunke (Universität Bern)

    Table of Contents (50k)
    Foreword (87k)
    Chapter 1: Bayesian Paradigms in Image Processing (1,653k)

    This book is the result of a special workshop on Spatial Computing which brought together experts in computer vision, visualization, multimedia and geographic information systems to discuss common problems and applications. The common theme of the workshop was the need to integrate human perception and domain knowledge with developing representations and solutions to problems which necessarily involve the interpretation of sensed data. The overwhelming conclusion was that these different areas of spatial computing should be communicating more than is done at present and that such workshops and publications would help this process.
