Solar Image Analysis and Visualization

This volume presents a selection of papers on the state of the art of image enhancement, automated feature detection, machine learning, and visualization tools in support of solar physics that focus on the challenges presented by new ground-based and space-based instrumentation. The articles and topics were inspired by the Third Solar Image Processing Workshop, held at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland but contributions from other experts have been included as well.

This book is mainly aimed at researchers and graduate students working on image processing and computer vision in astronomy and solar physics.
