Object Modeling, Algorithms and Applications

This book brings latest findings, ideas, developments, and applications in the area of computational modeling of objects represented in images. In particular, the book aims to attract scientists who use various approaches such as finite element method, optimization methods, modal analysis, stochastic methods, principal components analysis, independent components analysis, distribution models, geometrical modeling, digital geometry, grammars, fuzzy logic, and others to solve problems that appear in a wide range of areas as diverse as medicine, robotics, defense, security, astronomy, material science, and manufacturing.
