Engineering Visual Intelligence: Image Processing and Computer Vision from Classical Foundations to Deep Learning - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Your model achieves 98% accuracy in the lab but fails in the real world. This book explains why and how to build reliable computer vision systems.

Most computer vision books focus on theory or code that works only with clean images. Real-world cameras face poor lighting, noise, motion blur, and unexpected challenges. Engineering Visual Intelligence bridges this gap by teaching image processing and computer vision through practical engineering.

Starting from pixel fundamentals, this book takes you through classical image processing, modern computer vision, deep learning, and deployment.

What Makes This Book Different

Engineering Failure Cases: Understand real-world scenarios such as face recognition failures, denoising filters removing critical details, and inaccurate coin counting.

Hands-On Labs: Implement practical solutions using Python and OpenCV.

Worked Mathematical Examples: Understand algorithms through step-by-step mathematical explanations.

Real-World Case Studies: Explore fruit sorting, night photography, document scanning, number-plate recognition, and cell counting.

Exam and Interview Preparation: Learning objectives, key terms, summaries, and review questions across 20 chapters.
