Codes: An Introduction to Information Communication and Cryptography (Springer Undergraduate Mathematics Series)

Springer, 2008

Many people do not realise that mathematics provides the foundation for the devices we use to handle information in the modern world. Most of those who do know probably think that the parts of mathematics involved are quite ‘classical’, such as Fourier analysis and differential equations. In fact, a great deal of...

Augmented Vision Perception in Infrared: Algorithms and Applied Systems (Advances in Pattern Recognition)

Springer, 2008

Spurred by security and safety challenges, research efforts in thermographic sensors have advanced greatly, resulting in better performance in remote surveillance, object recognition, guidance and so on.

This comprehensive survey provides a thorough account of the recent deployment of infrared sensors in modern applications of...

Markov Random Field Modeling in Image Analysis (Advances in Pattern Recognition)

Springer, 2009

Modeling problems in this book are addressed mainly from the computational viewpoint. The primary concerns are how to define an objective function for the optimal solution to a image analysis or computer vision problem and how to find the optimal solution. The solution is defined in an optimization sense because the perfect solution is...

Embedded Computer Vision (Advances in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition)

Springer, 2008

As a graduate student at Ohio State in the mid-1970s, I inherited a unique computer vision laboratory from the doctoral research of previous students. They had designed and built an early frame-grabber to deliver digitized color video from a (very large) electronic video camera on a tripod to a mini-computer (sic) with a...

Modelling Computing Systems: Mathematics for Computer Science (Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science)

Springer, 2013

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. Key concepts are taught through a large collection of challenging yet fun mathematical games and logical puzzles...

Theory and Design of CNC Systems (Springer Series in Advanced Manufacturing)

Springer, 2008

CNC controllers, working as a brain for manufacturing automation, are high valueadded products accounting for over 30% of the price of machine tools. CNC technology is generally considered as a measure of the level of manufacturing technology of a nation, and is currently led by major advanced countries such as USA, Japan, and...

Intelligent Environments: Methods, Algorithms and Applications (Advanced Information and Knowledge Processing)

Springer, 2008

This innovative book discusses engineering solutions for the automatic understanding of a complex scene via multi-modal arrays of sensors. It focuses on research dealing with robotic platforms that augment an environment. In particular, it considers the study of information fusion methods, the study of algorithms for ontology learning from tabula...

Machine Tools for High Performance Machining

Springer, 2008

The machine tool has been, is and no doubt will be, a key factor in industrial and equipment evolution, and as such, improving man’s quality of life. Both its evolution and perfectioning have come about due to the sectors where used and have likewise improved their products due to machinery improvements.

Machines have changed...

Multi-objective Management in Freight Logistics: Increasing Capacity, Service Level and Safety with Optimization Algorithms

Springer, 2008

The complexity of modern supply chains requires decision makers in logistics to work with a set of efficient (Pareto optimal) solutions, mainly to catch different economic aspects for which one optimal solution related to a single objective function is not able to capture entirely. Motivated by this, and by recent changes in global markets and the...
