This richly illustrated book introduces the reader to a newly developed theory in Computer Vision yielding elementary techniques to analyze digital images. These techniques are inspired by, and are a mathematical formalization of the Gestalt theory. The authors maintain a publicly available software program called MegaWave, containing implementations of most of the image analysis techniques developed in the book. The volume is intended for a multidisciplinary audience of researchers and engineers. It is mathematically self-contained and requires only the basic understanding of probability and calculus. The text contains more than 130 illustrations. The authors offer numerous examples based on specific images on which the theory is tested. Detailed exercises at the end of each chapter help the reader develop a firm understanding of the concepts imparted.
