Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 50 recipes to help you build computer vision applications in C++ using the OpenCV library In Detail OpenCV Computer Vision Application Programming Cookbook Second Edition is your guide to the development of computer vision applications. The book shows you how to install and deploy the OpenCV library to write an effective computer vision application. Different techniques for image enhancement, pixel manipulation, and shape analysis will be presented. You will also learn how to process video from files or cameras and detect and track moving objects. You will also be introduced to recent approaches in machine learning and object classification. This book is a comprehensive reference guide that exposes you to practical and fundamental computer vision concepts, illustrated by extensive examples. What You Will Learn Install and create a program using the OpenCV library Process an image by manipulating its pixels Analyze an image using histograms Segment images into homogenous regions and extract meaningful objects Apply image filters to enhance image content Exploit image geometry in order to relate different views of a pictured scene Calibrate the camera from different image observations Detect faces and people in images using machine learning techniques Downloading the example code for this book.
