Good stuff - I added http://szeliski.org/Book/ to my reading list, thanks for sharing the link. There's a huge overlap for certain classes of problems. CV in many ways resembles the same problems with large online data streams, noisy, time critical, huge volumes of data - feature extraction is problematic. Hybrid solutions usually required.

I've found that reading books from other ML domains helps out in understanding the application and getting ideas on how to approach the problem.
