The theory of mean periodic functions is a subject which goes back to works of Littlewood, Delsarte, John and that has undergone a vigorous development in recent years.
Implicit objects have gained increasing importance in geometric modeling, visualisation, animation, and computer graphics, because their geometric properties provide a good alternative to traditional parametric objects.
Geometric algebra is still treated as an obscure branch of algebra and most books have been written by competent mathematicians in a very abstract style.
Falling Liquid Films gives a detailed review of state-of-the-art theoretical, analytical and numerical methodologies, for the analysis of dissipative wave dynamics and pattern formation on the surface of a film falling down a planar inclined substrate.
Information theory has proved to be effective for solving many computer vision and pattern recognition (CVPR) problems (such as image matching, clustering and segmentation, saliency detection, feature selection, optimal classifier design and many others).
Substantially revised, reorganised and updated, the second edition now comprises eighteen chapters, carefully arranged in a straightforward and logical manner, with many new results and open problems.
"e;Failure Rate Modeling for Reliability and Risk"e; focuses on reliability theory, and to the failure rate (hazard rate, force of mortality) modeling and its generalizations to systems operating in a random environment and to repairable systems.
This newly expanded and updated second edition of the best-selling classic continues to take the "e;mystery"e; out of designing algorithms, and analyzing their efficacy and efficiency.
Aimed primarily at graduate students and researchers, this text is a comprehensive course in modern probability theory and its measure-theoretical foundations.
As we enter the third decade of the World Wide Web (WWW), the textual revolution has seen a tremendous change in the availability of online information.
Stochastic control is one of the methods being used to find optimal decision-making strategies in fields such as operations research and mathematical finance.
This volume was born from the experience of the authors as researchers and educators,whichsuggeststhatmanystudentsofdataminingarehandicapped in their research by the lack of a formal, systematic education in its mat- matics.
Eugene Charles Catalan made his famous conjecture - that 8 and 9 are the only two consecutive perfect powers of natural numbers - in 1844 in a letter to the editor of Crelle's mathematical journal.
Identification of Continuous-time Models from Sampled Data presents an up-to-date view of this active area of research, describing recent methods and software tools and offering new results in areas such as: time and frequency domain optimal statistical approaches to identification; parametric identification for linear, nonlinear and stochastic systems; identification using instrumental variable, subspace and data compression methods; closed-loop and robust identification; and continuous-time modeling from non-uniformly sampled data and for systems with delay.
A Concise Introduction to Languages, Machines and Logic provides an accessible introduction to three key topics within computer science: formal languages, abstract machines and formal logic.
A rigorous but accessible treatment of the subject intertwining theoretical techniques with hands-on laboratory instruction and divided into three parts, this book covers various aspects of the digital signal processing (DSP) "e;problem"e;.
Interval computing combined with fuzzy logic has become an emerging tool in studying artificial intelligence and knowledge processing (AIKP) applications since it models uncertainties frequently raised in the field.
This engaging text presents the fundamental mathematics and modelling techniques for computing systems in a novel and light-hearted way, which can be easily followed by students at the very beginning of their university education.
"e;Computational Surface and Roundness Metrology"e; provides an extraordinarily practical and hands-on approach towards understanding the diverse array of mathematical methods used in surface texture and roundness analysis.
The aim of this monograph is to give a self-contained introduction to the modern theory of finite transformation semigroups with a strong emphasis on concrete examples and combinatorial applications.
