This book introduces methodologies to develop a variety of intelligent wearable interfaces and covers practical implementations of systems for real-life applications. A number of novel intelligent wearable interface systems are examined, including network architecture for wearable robots, wearable interface for automatic language translation,...
“This book guides you in the journey of 3D modeling from the theory with elegant mathematics to applications with beautiful 3D model pictures. Written in a simple, straightforward, and concise manner, readers will learn the state of the art of 3D reconstruction and modeling.” —Professor Takeo Kanade, Carnegie Mellon...
Vector Models for Data-Parallel Computing describes a model of parallelism that extends and formalizes the Data-Parallel model on which the Connection Machine and other supercomputers are based. It presents many algorithms based on the model, ranging from graph algorithms to numerical algorithms, and argues that data-parallel models...
It seems as if everyone is writing applications for Apple’s iPhone and iPad, but how do they all do it? It’s best to learn Objective-C, the native language of both the iOSand Mac OS X, but where to begin? Right here, even if you’ve never programmed before!
Objective-C for Absolute Beginners will teach you...
I was listening in the car to an audio CD of the book, Success through a Positive Mental Attitude, by Napoleon Hill and W. Clement Stone, when an amazing thing happened. I heard these words: “If you think you can do something, you probably can.”Incredible! I have said that in my Artistry Painting for Photographers Retreats to...
We desire success almost as much as we need to breathe. From the moment we are born we want to do more, get more, be more. While we may have a mental picture of success as striving hard toward perfection, in truth it is more natural. Success can be described as the courage to let out the potent dreams and potentialities already in us, simply...
Recent experimental research advances have led to increasingly detailed descriptions of how networks of interacting neurons process information. With these developments, it has become clear that dynamic network behaviors underlie information processing, and that the observed activity patterns cannot be fully explained by simple concepts such as...
