This book provides comprehensive coverage of the modern methods for
geometric problems in the computing sciences. It also covers
concurrent topics in data sciences including geometric processing,
manifold learning, Google search, cloud data, and R-tree for wireless
networks and BigData. The author investigates digital geometry and its
related constructive methods in discrete geometry, offering detailed
methods and algorithms. The book is divided into five sections: basic
geometry; digital curves, surfaces and manifolds; discretely
represented objects; geometric computation and processing; and
advanced topics. Chapters especially focus on the applications of
these methods to other types of geometry, algebraic topology, image
processing, computer vision and computer graphics. Digital and
Discrete Geometry: Theory and Algorithms targets researchers and
professionals working in digital image processing analysis, medical
imaging (such as CT and MRI) and informatics, computer graphics,
computer vision, biometrics, and information theory. Advanced-level
students in electrical engineering, mathematics, and computer science
will also find this book useful as a secondary text book or reference.
Praise for this book: This book does present a large collection of
important concepts, of mathematical, geometrical, or algorithmical
nature, that are frequently used in computer graphics and image
processing. These concepts range from graphs through manifolds to
homology. Of particular value are the sections dealing with discrete
versions of classic continuous notions. The reader finds compact
definitions and concise explanations that often appeal to intuition,
avoiding finer, but then necessarily more complicated, arguments… As
a first introduction, or as a reference for professionals working in
computer graphics or image processing, this book should be of
considerable value." - Prof. Dr. Rolf Klein, University of Bonn.
