Discrete Relaxation Techniques (International Series of Monographs on Computer Science)

By Thomas C. Henderson

Relaxation techniques are iterative methods of solving systems of equations by successive approximations that lead ultimately to a minimization of the difference between the solution and "reality." One important application of this method lies in image processing, when, given incomplete, ambiguous information, a computer attempts to determine the nature of an object and its orientation in three dimensions. An invaluable resource for computer scientists and electrical engineers, this book provides a firm foundation in these techniques and discusses its applications in computer vision and artificial intelligence.
