Adaptive image processing is one of the most important techniques in visual information processing, especially in early vision such as image restoration, filtering, enhancement, and segmentation. While existing books present some aspects of this important issue, there is not a single book that treats this problem from a purely computational intelligence (CI) viewpoint. With three new chapters and numerous updates throughout, this second edition includes substantial new material that focuses on applications of advanced CI techniques in image processing applications. It emphasizes developments in state-of-the-art CI techniques, such as CBIR.
