Book excerpt: Basic rules govern our universe, and an understanding of these rules makes a wide array of subjects crystal-clear. Fractal is such a rule: it completely describes the geometry of a leaf in 24 numbers. This book tells how to apply this fractal rule to photographic images.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on notes for the course Fractals:lntroduction, Basics and Perspectives given by MichaelF. Barnsley, RobertL. Devaney, Heinz-Otto Peit gen, Dietmar Saupe and Richard F. Voss. The course was chaired by Heinz-Otto Peitgen and was part of the SIGGRAPH '87 (Anaheim, California) course pro gram. Though the five chapters of this book have emerged from those courses we have tried to make this book a coherent and uniformly styled presentation as much as possible. It is the first book which discusses fractals solely from the point of view of computer graphics. Though fundamental concepts and algo rithms are not introduced and discussed in mathematical rigor we have made a serious attempt to justify and motivate wherever it appeared to be desirable. Ba sic algorithms are typically presented in pseudo-code or a description so close to code that a reader who is familiar with elementary computer graphics should find no problem to get started. Mandelbrot's fractal geometry provides both a description and a mathemat ical model for many of the seemingly complex forms and patterns in nature and the sciences. Fractals have blossomed enormously in the past few years and have helped reconnect pure mathematics research with both natural sciences and computing. Computer graphics has played an essential role both in its de velopment and rapidly growing popularity. Conversely, fractal geometry now plays an important role in the rendering, modelling and animation of natural phenomena and fantastic shapes in computer graphics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fractals are infinite, complex patterns used in modeling physical and dynamic systems. Fractal theory research has increased across different fields of applications including engineering science, health science, and social science. Recent literature shows the vital role fractals play in digital image analysis, specifically in biomedical image processing. Fractal graphics is an interdisciplinary field that deals with how computers can be used to gain high-level understanding from digital images. Integrating artificial intelligence with fractal characteristics has resulted in new interdisciplinary research in the fields of pattern recognition and image processing analysis. Intelligent Fractal-Based Image Analysis: Application in Pattern Recognition and Machine Vision provides insights into the current strengths and weaknesses of different applications as well as research findings on fractal graphics in engineering and science applications. The book aims to improve the exchange of ideas and coherence between various core computing methods and highlight the relevance of related application areas for advanced as well as novice-user application. The book presents an in-depth look at core concepts, methodological aspects, and advanced feature opportunities, focusing on major real time applications in engineering science and health science. The book will appeal to researchers, data scientists, industry professionals, and graduate students in the fields of fractal graphics and its related applications. Investigates advanced fractal theories spanning neural networks, fuzzy logic, machine learning, deep learning, and hybrid intelligent systems in solving pattern recognition problems Explores the application of fractal theories to a wide range of medical image processing modalities Presents case studies that illustrate the application and integration of fractal theories into intelligent computing in the resolution of important pattern recognition and machine vision problems

Book excerpt: Fractals are shapes in which an identical motif repeats itself on an ever diminishing scale. A coastline, for instance, is a fractal, with each bay or headland having its own smaller bays and headlands--as is a tree with a trunk that separates into two smaller side branches, which in their turn separate into side branches that are smaller still. No longer mathematical curiosities, fractals are now a vital subject of mathematical study, practical application, and popular interest. For readers interested in graphic design, computers, and science and mathematics in general, Hans Lauwerier provides an accessible introduction to fractals that makes only modest use of mathematical techniques. Lauwerier calls this volume a "book to work with." Readers with access to microcomputers can design new figures, as well as re-create famous examples. They can start with the final chapter, try out one of the programs described there (preferably in a compiled version such as TURBO BASIC), and consult the earlier chapters for whatever is needed to understand the fractals produced in this way. The first chapter, which builds on the relationship of binary number systems to the "tree fractal" described above, is the best place to start if one has no computer. There will be much to enjoy on the way, including the beautiful color illustrations.
