From the reviews of the First Edition: "e;This excellent book is based on several sets of lecture notes written over a decade and has its origin in a one-semester course given by the author at the ETH, Zurich, in the spring of 1970.
Belief change is an emerging field of artificial intelligence and information science dedicated to the dynamics of information and the present book provides a state-of-the-art picture of its formal foundations.
Occupancy Estimation and Modeling: Inferring Patterns and Dynamics of Species Occurrence, Second Edition, provides a synthesis of model-based approaches for analyzing presence-absence data, allowing for imperfect detection.
In recent years it has become apparent that an important part of the theory of Artificial Intelligence is concerned with reasoning on the basis of uncertain, incomplete or inconsistent information.
With the rapidly increasing penetration of laptop computers and mobile phones, which are primarily used by mobile users to access Internet s- vices like e-mail and World Wide Web (WWW) access, support of Internet services in a mobile environment is an emerging requirement.
The purpose of this book is to provide a careful and accessible account along modern lines of the subject wh ich the title deals, as weIl as to discuss prob- lems of current interest in the field.
The present book develops the mathematical and numerical analysis of linear, elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) with coefficients whose logarithms are modelled as Gaussian random fields (GRFs), in polygonal and polyhedral physical domains.
Kenntnisse aus dem Bereich der Stochastik sind für die Arbeit eines Inge nieurs, insbesondere in der Kommunikationstechnik, heute unbedingt erfor derlich.
Ausgehend vom Shannon-Wiener-Zugang zur mathematischen Informationstheorie, die eine mathematische "Messung" einer Informationsmenge erlaubt, beginnt das Buch mit einer Abgrenzung der Begriffe Nachricht und Information und der axiomatischen Zuordnung einer Informationsmenge zu einer Wahrscheinlichkeit.
The present volume develops the theory of integration in Banach spaces, martingales and UMD spaces, and culminates in a treatment of the Hilbert transform, Littlewood-Paley theory and the vector-valued Mihlin multiplier theorem.
The 31 papers collected here present original research results obtained in 1995-96, on Brownian motion and, more generally, diffusion processes, martingales, Wiener spaces, polymer measures.
The 2017 PIMS-CRM Summer School in Probability was held at the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, during June 5-30, 2017.
Offering the first comprehensive treatment of the theory of random measures, this book has a very broad scope, ranging from basic properties of Poisson and related processes to the modern theories of convergence, stationarity, Palm measures, conditioning, and compensation.
This book is intended to be a useful contribution for the modern teaching of applied mathematics, educating Industrial Mathematicians that will meet the growing demand for such experts.
The YUIMA package is the first comprehensive R framework based on S4 classes and methods which allows for the simulation of stochastic differential equations driven by Wiener process, Levy processes or fractional Brownian motion, as well as CARMA, COGARCH, and Point processes.
Marcus Hellwig zeigt, dass die kürzlich entwickelte Schiefe Verteilung, im Weiteren Equibalancedistribution (Eqb) genannt, für die Überprüfung des Prozessverhaltens von Funkübertragungen verwendet werden kann.
In diesem Lehrbuch werden die grundlegenden Konzepte der deskriptiven Statistik, der Wahrscheinlichkeitstheorie, der induktiven Statistik und der statistischen Entscheidungstheorie vorgestellt.
This book is intended to provoke, entertain, and inform by challenging the reader's ideas about randomness, providing first one and then another interpretation of what this elusive concept means.
