On behalf of the organizing committee, we would like to welcome you to Darmstadt
and DAGM 2010, the 32nd Annual Symposium of the German Association
for Pattern Recognition.
The technical program covered all aspects of pattern recognition and, to
name only a few areas, ranged from 3D reconstruction, to object recognition
and...
Covering everything from signal processing algorithms to integrated circuit design, this complete guide to digital front-end is invaluable for professional engineers and researchers in the fields of signal processing, wireless communication and circuit design. Showing how theory is translated into practical technology, it covers all the...
Rapid evolution of technical advances in infrared sensor technology, image processing, “smart” algorithms, databases, and system integration paves the way for new methods of research and use in medical infrared imaging. These breakthroughs permit easy-to-use, high-sensitivity imaging that can address key issues of diagnostic...
Discover how to optimize business strategies from both qualitative and quantitative points of view
Operational Risk: Modeling Analytics is organized around the principle that the analysis of operational risk consists, in part, of the collection of data and the building of mathematical models to describe risk. This book is...
This book describes a novel digital calibration technique called dynamic-mismatch mapping (DMM) to improve the performance of digital to analog converters (DACs). Compared to other techniques, the DMM technique has the advantage of calibrating all mismatch errors without any noise penalty, which is particularly useful in order to meet...
This book enlightens readers on the basic surface properties and distance-dependent intersurface forces one must understand to obtain even simple data from an atomic force microscope (AFM). The material becomes progressively more complex throughout the book, explaining details of calibration, physical origin of artifacts, and...
As the number of forensic science and forensic chemistry degree programs has increased over the last few years, Forensic Chemistry was the first book to specifically address this rapidly growing field. It introduces the principal areas of study from the perspective of analytical chemistry, addressing the legal context in which forensic...
Remote sensing has entered a new era in the twenty-first century with a
series of operating satellites from the NASA Earth Observing System (EOS)
program, other international programs, and commercial programs. Since
November 2000 the first civilian spaceborne hyperspectral sensor, Hyperion,
has observed land surfaces on the...
This book describes several techniques to address variation-related design challenges for analog blocks in mixed-signal systems-on-chip. The methods presented are results from recent research works involving receiver front-end circuits, baseband filter linearization, and data conversion. These circuit-level techniques are described, with...
Camera networks is a highly interdisciplinary area of research that has been very active over the
last few years. In this book, we focus specifically on the topic of video understanding in camera
networks and touch upon the other related areas (e.g., communication resources, machine learning,
cooperative control of multi-agent...
Revised and thoroughly updated, this practical guide to photographing people is better than ever!
What is the color of skin? You may think you know, until you enter the world of digital photography and try to reproduce what you see. Differences in software, lighting, computer calibration—everything has an impact on...
Winning Design! LEGO Mindstorms NXT Design Patterns for Fun and Competition is about design that works. It’s about building with LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT for fun, for education, but especially for competition. Author James Trobaugh is an experienced coach and leader in the FIRST LEGO League. In this book, he shares his hard-won...
