Digital Image Enhancement, Restoration and Compression focuses on human vision-based imaging application development. Examples include making poor images look better, the development of advanced compression algorithms, special effects imaging for motion pictures and the restoration of satellite images distorted by atmospheric disturbance. This book presents a unique engineering approach to the practice of digital imaging, which starts by presenting a global model to help gain an understanding of the overall process, followed by a breakdown and explanation of each individual topic. Topics are presented as they become necessary for understanding the practical imaging model under study, which provides the reader with the motivation to learn about and use the tools and methods being explored.

The book includes chapters on imaging systems and software, the human visual system, image transforms, image filtering, image enhancement, image restoration, and image compression. Numerous examples, including over 700 color images, are used to illustrate the concepts discussed. Readers can explore their own application development with any programming language, including C/C++, MATLAB, Python and R, and software is provided for both the Windows/C/C++ and MATLAB environments.

The book can be used by the academic community in teaching and research, with over 1,000 PowerPoint slides and a complete solutions manual to the over 230 included problems. It can also be used for self-study by those involved with application development, whether they are engineers, scientists or artists. The new edition has been extensively updated and includes numerous problems and programming exercises that will help the reader and student develop their skills.

The prerequisites for the book are an interest in the field, a basic background in computers and a basic math background provided in an undergraduate science or engineering program. Knowledge of the C family of programming languages, including C, C++ and C#, and/or MATLAB experience will be necessary for those intending to develop algorithms at the application level. Some background in signal and system theory is required for those intending to gain a deep understanding of the sections on transforms and compression. However, the book is written so that those without this background can learn to use the tools and achieve a conceptual understanding of the material.
