Vision : images, signals and neural networks, Models of Neural Processing in Visual Perception

At the fascinating frontiers of neurobiology, mathematics and psychophysics, this book addresses the problem of human and computer vision on the basis of cognitive modeling. After recalling the physics of light and its transformation through media and optics, Hérault presents the principles of the primate's visual system in terms of anatomy and functionality. All along the book, many comparisons between the models and human perception are discussed as well as detailed applications to computer vision.
