Studies In Pattern Recognition: A Memorial To The Late Professor King-sun Fu

More than ten years have passed since the untimely death of King-Sun Fu, one of the great pioneers in the field of pattern recognition. It was he, more than any other single individual, who nurtured the field during its formative years, and set the tone and tempo for others to follow. This book is dedicated to his memory.This book contains 11 chapters by authors who knew King-Sun Fu and in varying degrees interacted with him. The articles span the field of pattern recognition in its current state, and cover such diverse topics as neural nets, covariance propagation, genetic selection, shape description, characteristic views for 3D modeling, face recognition, speech recognition, and machine translation. In tone they vary from the highly theoretical to the applied. Their presentation here is a testimonial, by his former colleagues and friends, to the pioneer who did so much to bring pattern recognition to its position as a recognized discipline world-wide.

Reproducible Research in Pattern Recognition

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Reproducible Research in Pattern Recognition, RRPR 2018, in Beijing, China in August 2018. The 8 revised full papers, presented together 6 short papers, were carefully reviewed and selected from 14 submissions. This year the workshop did focus on Digital Geometry and Mathematical Morphology. The first track 1 on RR Framework was dedicated to the general topics of Reproducible Research in Computer Sciencewith a potential link to Image Processing and Pattern Recognition. In the second track 2 the authors described their works in terms of Reproducible Research.
