Typeset&CoverDesign:ScientificPublishingServicesPvt.Ltd.,Chennai,India. Printedonacid-freepaper 543210 springer.com Foreword Image Processing and Communications represents an exciting and dynamic part of the information area. This book consists of 52 scientific and technical papers from 14 Nations, after a careful selection performed by many international reviewers. The papers are conveniently grouped into 6 chapters: (cid:129) Computer Vision and Image Processing (cid:129) Biometric (cid:129) Recognition and Classification (cid:129) Biomedical Image Processing (cid:129) Applications (cid:129) Communications. Each chapter focuses on a specific topic, presents results, and points out challenges and future directions.
