Principles of Multimedia

Principles of Multimedia introduces and explains the theoretical concepts related to the representation, storage, compression, transmission and processing of various multimedia components, including text, image, graphics, audio, video and animation, as well as their use across various applications. The book provides the necessary programming tools and analysis technique concepts to perform practical processing tasks in software labs and to solve numerical problems at the postgraduate level. For this new third edition, every chapter has been updated and the book has been carefully streamlined throughout.

Including theoretical explanations, mathematical formulations, solved numerical problems and coding examples throughout, Principles of Multimedia is an ideal textbook for graduate and post-graduate students studying courses on image processing, speech and language processing, signal processing, video object detection and tracking, graphic design and modelling, and related multimedia technologies
