A new method for gray-level picture thresholding using the entropy of the histogram

TL;DR: Two methods of entropic thresholding proposed by Pun (Signal Process.,2, 1980, 223–237;Comput.16, 1981, 210–239) have been carefully and critically examined and a new method with a sound theoretical foundation is proposed.

A review on image segmentation techniques

TL;DR: Attempts have been made to cover both fuzzy and non-fuzzy techniques including color image segmentation and neural network based approaches, which addresses the issue of quantitative evaluation of segmentation results.

Pattern classification and scene analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a unified, comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of both statistical and descriptive methods for pattern recognition is provided, including Bayesian decision theory, supervised and unsupervised learning, nonparametric techniques, discriminant analysis, clustering, preprosessing of pictorial data, spatial filtering, shape description techniques, perspective transformations, projective invariants, linguistic procedures, and artificial intelligence techniques for scene analysis.

Use of the Hough transformation to detect lines and curves in pictures

TL;DR: It is pointed out that the use of angle-radius rather than slope-intercept parameters simplifies the computation further, and how the method can be used for more general curve fitting.

Digital Picture Processing

TL;DR: The rapid rate at which the field of digital picture processing has grown in the past five years had necessitated extensive revisions and the introduction of topics not found in the original edition.
