Digital Image Processing: PIKS Scientific Inside (With CD)

0.0

This is a bestselling text by a well-known author. Its first two editions have sold over 25,000 copies. The fourth edition is updated to account for new developments since 2000. In addition its accompanying software is based on PIKS Scientific rather than PIKS Core. The CD contains all of the contents of a 500 page PIKS Scientific Software Manual developed by the author, in addition to the executable PIKS Scientific software. This is a great value to the purchaser who will be able to acquire a full feature software package for the price of the book - a fraction of the commercial package.
