Summary

Aims and Scope This book is both an introductory textbook and a research monograph on modeling the statistical structure of natural images. In very simple terms, “natural images” are photographs of the typical environment where we live. In this book, their statistical structure is described using a number of statistical models whose parameters are estimated from image samples. Our main motivation for exploring natural image statistics is computational m- eling of biological visual systems. A …

Critics Review

From the reviews:

“The authors did a wonderful job of introducing the field of natural image statistics, comprehensively. The book provides the underlying fundamental mathematics … accessible to a wide audience. … provides exercises and computer assignments at the end of the chapters. … the advanced topics are treated in a similar manner to basic theory, makes the book suitable to be used as a textbook for advanced students and by researchers in any discipline related to computer vision.” (Michael Goldberg and R. Goldberg, ACM Computing Reviews, October, 2010)
