Foundations of Computer Vision: A Decade in the Making

After a decade-long journey, Torralba, Isola, and Freeman have published "Foundations of Computer Vision." Instead of aiming for complete coverage, the book focuses on fundamental concepts, approaching the subject from image processing and machine learning perspectives. It features numerous visualizations and progresses through image formation, learning foundations, signal processing, neural networks, and explores advanced topics like generative models and representation learning. The book's rigorous structure and clear explanations make it suitable for undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals alike.
