  • Computational Proximity
    James F. Peters
    This book introduces computational proximity (CP) as an algorithmic approach to finding nonempty sets of points that are either close to each other or far apart. Typically in computational proximity, the book starts with some form of proximity space (topological space equipped with a proximity relation) that has an inherent geometry. In CP, two types of near sets are considered...

  • Topology of Digital Images
    James F. Peters
    This book carries forward recent work on visual patterns and structures in digital images and introduces a near set-based a topology of digital images.
