Meet the Kinect: An Introduction to Programming Natural User Interfaces (Technology in Action)

Apress, 2011

In this chapter you’ll unbox a new Kinect—or if you have one already, you’ll disconnect it from your Xbox. Then you’ll install some software, plug the Kinect into a computer, and take a look at what all of the fuss is about with this unique device. You’ll learn what the different components of the Kinect are and...

Wetlands and Water Framework Directive: Protection, Management and Climate Change (GeoPlanet: Earth and Planetary Sciences)

Springer, 2015

This book compares the lessons learned from a wetland-perspective approach to the changing climate and the requirements of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) with regard to environmental conservation. Examples from Germany and Poland are discussed due to the efficiency of their respective implementations of water conservation policies....

Digital Synthesizers and Transmitters for Software Radio

Springer, 2005

The approach adopted in this book will, it is hoped, provide an understanding
of key areas in the field of digital synthesizers and transmitters. It is easy
to include different digital techniques in the digital synthesizers and transmitters
by using digital signal processing methods, because the signal is in
digital form. By...

Probabilistic Approaches to Robotic Perception (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Springer, 2013

This book tries to address the following questions: How should the uncertainty and incompleteness inherent to sensing the environment be represented and modelled in a way that will increase the autonomy of a robot? How should a robotic system perceive, infer, decide and act efficiently? These are two of the challenging questions robotics...

Advanced Signal Processing and Noise Reduction, 2nd Edition

John Wiley & Sons, 2000

This book presents a broad range of theory and application of statistical signal processing. The emphasis is on digital noise reduction algorithms, particularly important in the field of mobile communication. Vaseghi covers a broad range of applications, including spectral estimation, channel equalization, speech coding over noisy channels,...

Adaptive Multimedia Retrieval. Understanding Media and Adapting to the User: 7th International Workshop

Springer, 2011

This book contains a selection of the revised contributions that were initially submitted to the International Workshop on Adaptive Multimedia Retrieval (AMR 2009). The workshop was organized by the Universidad Nacional de Educaci ´on a Distancia (UNED) in Madrid, Spain, during September 24–25, 2009.

The goal of the AMR...

Neural Networks: A Systematic Introduction

Springer, 1996

One of the well-springs of mathematical inspiration has been the continuing attempt to formalize human thought. From the syllogisms of the Greeks, through all of logic and probability theory, cognitive models have led to beautiful mathematics and wide ranging application. But mental processes have proven to be more complex than any of the formal...

Mobile Intelligence (Wiley Series on Parallel and Distributed Computing)

John Wiley & Sons, 2010

Nowadays, it is very common to see people everywhere and at anytime use mobile telecommunications devices, such as cellular/mobile phones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), or laptop equipped with wireless connectivity to communicate with the network and access information. This phenomenon, which is generally known as mobile computing is...

Developments in Speech Synthesis

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

Contemporary speech synthesis is perceived as inadequate for general adoption for user interaction, largely because it rests on an inadequate model of human speech production and perception. This book reviews the underlying model, brings out areas of inadequacy and suggests how improvements might be made. It is argued that a greater understanding...

Unit Operations: An Approach to Videogame Criticism

MIT Press, 2006

"Bogost challenges humanists and technologists to pay attention to one another, something they desperately need to do as computation accelerates us into the red zones of widespread virtual reality. This book gives us what we need to meet that challenge: a general theory for understanding creativity under computation, one that will apply...

Computer Science & Artificial Intelligence

National Academy Press, 1997

The Panel on Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence was established in early 1992 by the Naval
Studies Board (NSB) of the National Research Council in response to a request from the Naval Research
Laboratory (NRL). The NRL called on the NSB to establish a panel of experts in the fields of computer science
and artificial...

Foundations of Machine Learning (Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning series)

MIT Press, 2012

This graduate-level textbook introduces fundamental concepts and methods in machine learning. It describes several important modern algorithms, provides the theoretical underpinnings of these algorithms, and illustrates key aspects for their application. The authors aim to present novel theoretical tools and concepts while giving concise...
