Riassunto:

This bookintroduces the optical multi-band polarization imaging theory and theutilization of the multi-band polarimetric information for detecting thecamouflage object and the optical hidden marker, and enhancing the visibilityin bad weather and water. The book describes systematically and in detail thebasic optical polarimetry theory; provides abundant multi-band polarimetricimaging experiment data; and indicates practical evaluation methods fordesigning the multi-band polarization imager, for analyzing and modeling theobject’s multi-band polarization characteristics, and for enhancing the visionperformance in scattering media. This book shows the latest research results ofmulti-band polarimetric vision, especially in camouflage object detection,optical hidden marker detection and multi-band polarimetric imagery fusion.From this book, readers can get a complete understanding about multi-bandpolarimetric imaging and its application in different vision tasks.
