NOVEL INTELLIGENT IMAGE PROCESSING ALGORITHMS FOR REALTIME SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE

摘要

This Special Issue is dedicated to present the research results of the Japanese national project, entitled "Mixed Integrated Systems for Real-Time Intelligent Processing", supported by Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) of Japan and directed by Prof. Tadahiro Ohmi, New Industry Creation Hatchery Center, Tohoku University. This project consists of 38 members during 1999-2002 and aimed at hybridizing and integrating the brand new information technologies in order to achieve the real-time intelligent processing mainly moving-image processing. Some research projects were extended and the results were presented at special sessions in WAC'04 held in Seville, Spain, during June 28 - July 1, 2004. Best papers of those WAC'04 sessions are included in this special issue.
