"Preface Paintings, frescos, antique photographic prints, incunabulas, old books, handwritten documents, sculptures, ceramic fragments and other ancient manufacts constitute the elements of an extremely valuable and immense historical patrimony. Their digitalization opens up the possibility to use various image processing and analysis and Computer Graphics techniques to preserve this Cultural Heritage for future generations. Digital imaging solutions can be used to generate virtually restored versions of the original artworks to be presented in online museums and/or for further development of historical studies. Application of various feature extraction and image data analysis techniques is useful to address problems of authorship and artwork style categorization in the history of arts. Three-dimensional reconstruction of ancient artworks or entire archeological sites allows the creation of multidimensional models that incorporate information coming from excavations, archaeological knowhow and heterogeneous historical sources. Pioneer work in this area has sprung from the close, but too often occasional, cooperation of scientists with historians and archaeologists"-- Provided by publisher.
