On-board image processing systems are used to maximize image data transmission efficiency for large volumes of data gathered by Earth observation satellites. This book explains the methods, mathematical models, and key technologies used for these systems. It introduces the background, basic concepts, and the architecture of on-board image processing, along with on-board detection of the image... Read more

Biography

Dr. Guoqing Zhou is a professor at the Guilin University of Technology, Guilin, China. He received his first PhD from Wuhan University, Wuhan, China, in 1994 and his second PhD from Virginia Tech at Blacksburg, Virginia, USA, in 2001. He was a visiting scholar at the Department of Computer Science and Technology, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, and a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Information Science, Beijing Jiaotong University, Beijing, China, from 1994–1996. He continued his research as an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Technical University of Berlin, Berlin, Germany, from 1997–1998 and afterward became a postdoctoral researcher at the Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA, from 1998 to 2000. Later he worked at Old Dominion University, Norfolk, VA, USA, as an assistant professor, associate professor, and full professor in 2000, 2005, and 2010, respectively. He has authored 11 books, seven book chapters, and more than 450 peer-refereed publications with more than 230 journal articles.
