Digital Dice: Computational Solutions to Practical Probability Problems

Princeton Press, 2008

"Paul Nahin's Digital Dice is a marvelous book, one that is even better than his Duelling Idiots. Nahin presents twenty-one great probability problems, from George Gamow's famous elevator paradox (as corrected by Donald Knuth) to a bewildering puzzle involving two rolls of toilet paper, and he solves them all with the aid...

Fundamentals of Three-dimensional Digital Image Processing

Springer, 2009

There are many areas of science and engineering where three-dimensional (3-D) discrete data are collected and analyzed, such as medical imaging and geoscience. To design and to prove the validity of computational procedures for processing and analysis of such data, the need for a mathematical theory and algorithms for image processing is essential....

Cells and Robots: Modeling and Control of Large-Size Agent Populations (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Springer, 2007

From the reviews:

"This interesting monograph is devoted to the study of multi-agent, populations of biological cells and robot teams. … The main objective of the approach is to provide solutions to the problem of how dynamics of an individual agent propagates to the population dynamics. … This original monograph has a wide...

Signals and Systems with MATLAB

Springer, 2009

The fully comprehensive text covers most of the theoretical foundations and mathematical derivations that will be used in higher-level related subjects such as signal processing, communication, and control, minimizing the mathematical difficulty and computational burden.

Complying actively with the requirement by ABET (Accreditation Board for...

Fires in Silos: Hazards, Prevention, and Fire Fighting

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

Storage of chemicals in silos is ubiquitous in the chemical, pharmaceutical and other producing industries, and some 80 % of all bulk materials are inflammable. It is here that the risk of large fires arises due to self-ignition or the intrusion of different ignition sources. For firefighters, most silo fires are very difficult to handle due to the...

Constructive Modeling Of Structural Turbulence And Hydrodynamic Instabilities

World Scientific Publishing, 2009

The book provides an original approach in the research of structural analysis of free developed shear compressible turbulence at high Reynolds number on the base of direct numerical simulation (DNS) and instability evolution for ideal medium (integral conservation laws) with approximate mechanism of dissipation (FLUX dissipative monotone...

Elementary Functions: Algorithms and Implementation

Birkhauser, 2005

"An important topic, which is on the boundary between numerical analysis and computer science…. I found the book well written and containing much interesting material, most of the time disseminated in specialized papers published in specialized journals difficult to find. Moreover, there are very few books on these topics and they are...

The Theory of Matrices in Numerical Analysis

Dover Publications, 1975

This book represents an effort to select and present certain aspects of the theory of matrices that are most useful in developing and appraising computational methods for solving systems of linear equations (including the inversion of matrices) and for finding characteristic roots. The solution of linear inequalities and the problems of linear...

Alternative Methods of Regression (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)

John Wiley & Sons, 1993

Since its discovery almost 200 years ago, least squares has been the most popular method of regression analysis. A statistics book with the word "regression" in its title, without any qualifying adjective such as "robust" or "nonparametric" or "alternative", can be assumed to be about least-squares...

Invariant Algebras And Geometric Reasoning

World Scientific Publishing, 2008

The demand for more reliable geometric computing in robotics, computer vision and graphics has revitalized many venerable algebraic subjects in mathematics among them, Grassmann Cayley algebra and Geometric Algebra. Nowadays, they are used as powerful languages for projective, Euclidean and other classical geometries.

This book contains the...
