Over this period he has made many fundamental and pioneering contributions to nearly every area in this field. Azriel Rosenfeld wrote the first textbook in the field (1969) and was founding editor of the first journal (1972).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The contributions in this book illustrate the changes that have occurred in dealing with crucial research problems and the methodologies employed to solve them. The 22 papers specifically written for this text are by a handful of researchers who have known and worked with Azriel over the years. These papers address five major themes: image segmentation, feature extraction, 3D shape estimation from 2D images, object recognition, and applications technologies.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface\/Introduction (Kevin Bowyer and Narendra Ahuja).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Section 1 -- Segmentation of Images into Regions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Texture Segregation in Chromatic Element-Arrangement Patterns (Jacob Beck).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Multiresolution GMRF Models for Image Segmentation (Rama Chellappa Anthana Krishnamachari).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Feature Selection for Texture Segmentation (Michael Brady and Zhi-Yan Xie).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A Transform for Multiscale Image Segmentation (Narendra Ahuja).\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Image Segmentation Using Clustering (Anil K.
