SCOPE OF THE BOOK

Super-Resolution (SR) techniques can be used in general image processing, microscopy, security, biomedical imaging,
automation/robotics, biometrics among other areas to handle the dimensionality conundrum posed by the conflicts
caused by the necessity to balance image acquisition, image modality/resolution/representation, subspace
decomposition, compressed sensing, and communications constraints. Lighter computational implementations are
needed to circumvent the heavy computational burden brought in by SR image processing applications. Soft computing
and, specifically, Deep Learning (DL) ascend as possible solutions to SR efficient deployment. The amount of multi-
resolution and multimodal images has been augmenting the need for more efficient and intelligent analyses, for example,
computer-aided diagnosis via Computational Intelligence (CI) techniques.
The intend of publishing the book is to serve for researchers, technology professionals, academicians and students
working in the area of latest advances and upcoming technologies employing CI methods for SR in imaging processing
applications. This book explores the application of deep learning techniques within a particularly difficult computational
type of computer vision problem: SR. This book aspires to provide assortment of novel research works that focuses on
broad challenges of CI approaches for SR in image processing applications.
We invite all researchers, academicians, developers and research scholars to contribute chapters in the field of CI and
SR with an emphasis on practical examples. Each article is expected to cover CI methods for Super Resolution in
image processing applications.
