Spatio-Temporal Image Processing: Theory and Scientific Applications Book

Image sequence processing is becoming a tremendous tool to analyze spatio-temporal data in all areas of naturalscience. It is the key to studythe dynamics of of complexscientific phenomena. Methods from computer science and thefield of application are merged establishing newinterdisciplinary research areas.This monograph emerged from scientific applications and thusis an example for such an interdisciplinaryapproach. It isaddressed both to computer scientists and to researchersfrom other fields who are applying methods of computervision. The results presented are mostly from environmentalphysics (oceanography) but they will be illuminating andhelpful for researchers applying similar methods in otherareas.
