Inhaltsangabe

The study of spatial processes and their applications is an important topic in statistics and is used widely, particularly in computer vision and imaging processing. This book demonstrates how these techniques give new insights into classical procedures and newer paradigms such as Monte-Carlo inference and pseudo-likelihood and stresses the importance of edge effects and of lack of a unique asymptotic setting in spatial problems.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The study of spatial processes and their applications is an important topic in statistics and finds wide application particularly in computer vision and image processing. This book is devoted to statistical inference in spatial statistics and is intended for specialists needing an introduction to the subject and to its applications.

One of the themes of the book is to show how these techniques give new insights into classical procedures (including new examples in likelihood theory) and newer statistical paradigms such as Monte-Carlo inference and pseudo-likelihood. Professor Ripley also stresses the importance of edge effects and of the lack of a unique asymptotic setting in spatial problems.

Throughout, the author discusses the foundational issues posed and the difficulties, both computational and philosophical, which arise. The final chapters consider image restoration and segmentation methods and the averaging and summarizing of images. Thus, the book will find wide appeal to researchers in computer vision, image processing, and those applying microscopy in biology, geology and materials science, as well as to statisticians interested in the foundations of their discipline.
