This lecture summarizes the material in a tutorial we gave at AAAI2008 [Grauman and Leibe,
2008]1. Our goal is to overview the types of methods that figure most prominently in object
recognition research today, in order to give a survey of the concepts, algorithms, and representations
that one might use to build a...

Using a highly detailed scenario as an example, the authors guide you through all administration tasks and provide useful tips for your daily work.
This publication offers and investigates efficient Monte Carlo simulation methods in order to realize a Bayesian approach to approximate learning of Bayesian networks from both complete and incomplete data. For large amounts of incomplete data when Monte Carlo methods are inefficient, approximations are implemented, such that learning remains...
Beginning Windows 8 Application Development – XAML Edition introduces you to the Windows 8 modern app design paradigm and the new Windows 8 programming model developed around this paradigm. You'll learn to build rich, immersive applications designed to run on the many devices that will be powered by Windows 8.
Cloud computing is often described as providing computing resources the way electric utilities provide energy. In theory, anyone with an adequate connection to the Internet should be able to tap into a cloud provider and get exactly the computing resources they want when they want it, just like plugging into the electricity grid and...
The purpose of this text is to assist one in learning how to program in Intel assembly
language in a minimal amount of time. In addition, through programming the reader learns
more about the computer architecture of the Intel 32-bit processor and also the relationship
between high-level languages and low-level languages.
Note to customers: The print version of this book is highly formatted, and many pages contain examples that use a variety of approaches to text layout including the use of multiple fonts. The subtleties of this layout would be lost when converted to ePub, so we have chosen to offer this ebook only in PDF format, which keeps the page...
Many books have been written about IMS, so why do we think another is needed? Most of
the existing books are written from the perspective of those who implement the technology,

that form the basis of IMS are complex – as they are...
Too often, differential equations seem like torture. They seem so bad in fact that you may
be tempted to cringe or shudder when you’re assigned homework that involves ’em.
Differential Equations Workbook For Dummies may not get you to embrace differential equations
with open arms, but it will improve your understanding...
"Proof" has been and remains one of the concepts which characterises mathematics. Covering basic propositional and predicate logic as well as discussing axiom systems and formal proofs, the book seeks to explain what mathematicians understand by proofs and how they are communicated. The authors explore the principle techniques of...
Computer and Machine Vision: Theory, Algorithms, Practicalities (previously entitled Machine Vision) clearly and systematically presents the basic methodology of computer and machine vision, covering the essential elements of the theory while emphasizing algorithmic and practical design constraints. This fully revised fourth edition has...
