Rosenfeld's research on digital image analysis (specifically on digital geometry and digital topology, and on the accurate measurement of statistical features of digital images) in the 1960s and 1970s formed the foundation for a generation of industrial vision inspection systems that have found widespread applications from the automotive to the electronics industry.
He held a Ph.D. in mathematics from Columbia University (1957), Rabbinic ordination (1952) and a Doctorate of Hebrew Literature (1955) from Yeshiva University. He also received honorary Doctorate of Technology degrees from Linkoping University (1980) and Oulu University (1994), and an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters degree from Yeshiva University (2000). He was also awarded an honorary Doctorate of Science degree from the Technion (2004, conferred posthumously). He was a Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (1990) and of the Association for Computing Machinery (1994).
Rosenfeld was a ''ba'al koreh'' (Torah Reader) at Young Israel Shomrai Emunah of Greater Washington for many years until he moved to Baltimore in 2001.
In honor of the memory of Rosenfeld, ICCV gives the biennial Azriel Rosenfeld Award to a living person in the recognition of an outstanding life-time contribution to the field of image understanding or computer vision. Provided by Wikipedia
