该文是关于中国图像工程的年度文献综述系列之十八。为了使国内广大从事图像工程研究和图像技术应用的科技人员能够较全面地了解国内图像工程研究和发展的现状,并能够方便地查询有关文献,现从2012年国内15种有关图像工程重要中文期刊共134期上发表的2 912篇学术研究和技术应用文献中,选取出792篇属于图像工程领域的文献,并根据各文献的主要内容将其分别归入图像处理、图像分析、图像理解、技术应用和综述5个大类,然后进一步分入23个专业小类(与前7年相同)。在此基础上还分别进行了各期刊各类文献的统计和分析。根据统计分析结果可看到中国图像工程在2012年许多新进展的情况。

This is the eighteenth in the annual survey series of the yearly bibliographies on image engineering in China. The purpose of this survey work is mainly to capture the up-to-date development of image engineering in China, to provide a convenient means of literature searching facility for readers working in related areas, and to supply a useful reference for the editors of journals and potential authors of papers. Considering the wide distribution of related publications in China, 792 references on image engineering research and technique are selected carefully from 2 912 research papers published in 134 issues of a set of 15 Chinese journals. These 15 journals are considered as important journals in which papers concerning image engineering have higher quality and are relatively concentrated. Those selected references are classified first into 5 categories (image processing, image analysis, image understanding, technique application and survey), and then into 23 specialized classes according to their main contents (same as the last 7 years). Some analysis and discussions about the statistics made on the results of classifications by journal and by category are also presented, respectively. This work shows a general and off-the-shelf picture of the various progresses of image engineering in China in 2012.
