Book Title: The Image Processing Handbook, 7th Ed

Author: John C. Ross and F. Brent Neal

Selection Statement:

The use of image analysis has allowed me to expand the data extracted from HRTEM lattice fringe images for coal, char, and cokes. To explore coal particle size and shape. To extract clear information for fracture mapping. To explore porosity and fractures in 3D space from X-ray Computed Tomography. This book enabled the rationalization of what was occurring, and to permit logical progression of image processing through data extraction. A well-written book, with a wide range of image examples, that help the reader apply image processing techniques.
