A Guest lecture on “Image processing
applicationsindefenseapplications‐feature
extraction and object tracking” was
deliveredbyMr.BandiSureshKumar,Scientist
‘D’, IPD/DIIRS, RCI in Image processing
division,Hyderabadon29thmarch2014forthe
students of M.Tech (CSE) I and II year in P.G
seminar Hall, J.C. Bose Block. The speaker Mr.
BandiSureshkumarhasdonehisM.Techfrom
IIScBanglore.
The session started with brief
introduction to basic of Image Processing.
Later the session was taken forward with
discussion about image enhancement
techniques in spatial domain and frequency
domain. The speaker has delivered many real
time examples to convey the object tracking
and feature extraction concepts. He explained
