Computer Vision: From Surfaces to 3D Objects
by Christopher W. TylerThe typical computational approach to object understanding derives shape information from the 2D outline of the objects. For complex object structures, however, such a planar approach cannot determine object shape; the structural edges have to be encoded in terms of their full 3D spatial configuration.

by Christian PosthoffDas Buch beginnt mit einer Erklärung der menschlichen Intelligenz und der Beschreibung von Intelligenztests. Die Künstliche Intelligenz, die auf Computerprogrammen beruht, beginnt mit der Dartmouth – Konferenz 1956, an der sich berühmte Informatiker dieser Zeit beteiligten. Diese damit eingeleitete Entwicklung wurde von großen Fortschritten der Kybernetik und der Spieltheorie begleitet.Es folgen Beschreibungen wichtiger Methoden und Anwendungen:Maschinelles Lernen und Neuronale Netze Sehr publikumswirksam waren die Entwicklungen von Programmen für strategische Spiele, die nach einem kurzen Training die jeweiligen Weltmeister besiegen konnten. Die Sprachübersetzer von Google und DeepL sind mittlerweile vielen bekannt. Es wird erklärt, wie intelligente Systeme mit Datenbanken zusammenarbeiten, wie beliebige Daten digitalisiert werden können. Große Mengen an Daten werden unter dem Stichwort „Big Data“ behandelt. Ausführlich beschrieben werden die Bildverarbeitung, die Erkennung von Tumoren und Viren. Robotik ist ein weiterer Punkt, der ausführlich dargestellt wird. Roboter in der Chirurgie und in der Pflege sind ebenfalls sehr bedeutsam. „Exotische Ausreißer“ sind die Anwendungen in der Kunst. Sehr bedeutsam für die zukünftige Entwicklung sind Anwendungen in der Rechtssprechung.
