Success in Evolutionary Computation (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

Darwinian evolutionary theory is one of the most important theories in human history for it has equipped us with a valuable tool to understand the amazing world around us. There can be little surprise, therefore, that Evolutionary Computation (EC), inspired by natural evolution, has been so successful in providing high quality solutions in a large...

Expression in Speech: Analysis and Synthesis

Oxford University Press, 2006

"Extremely useful as a guide to anyone working on the interface between emotion in speech and speech synthesis. Tatham and Morton offer a far-sighted perspective to this topic and make explicit many issues the developer of synthesis systems might not think about at all. In this sense the book is also a very good example of how the linguist and...

Modern Image Quality Assessment (Synthesis Lectures on Image, Video, & Multimedia Processing)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2006

This book is about objective image quality assessment—where the aim is to provide computational models that can automatically predict perceptual image quality. The early years of the 21st century have witnessed a tremendous growth in the use of digital images as a means for representing and communicating information. A considerable percentage...

GPU-Based Techniques for Global Illumination Effects (Synthesis Lectures on Computer Graphics)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

Real-time rendering poses severe computational requirements to computers. In order to maintain a continuous looking motion for the human eye, at least 20 images need to be generated in each second. An image consists of about a million pixels, which means that for a single pixel the visible point and its color should be computed in less than 50 ns...

Constraint Logic Programming using Eclipse

Cambridge University Press, 2007

Constraint logic programming lies at the intersection of logic programming, optimisation and artificial intelligence. It has proved a successful tool in many areas including production planning, transportation scheduling, numerical analysis and bioinformatics. Eclipse is one of the leading software systems that realise its underlying...

Classical and New Paradigms of Computation and their Complexity Hierarchies

Springer, 2005

The notion of complexity is an important contribution of logic to theoretical computer science and mathematics. This volume attempts to approach complexity in a holistic way, investigating mathematical properties of complexity hierarchies at the same time as discussing algorithms and computational properties. A main focus of the volume is on some...

Design and Analysis of Learning Classifier Systems: A Probabilistic Approach (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the design and analysis of Learning Classifier Systems (LCS) from the perspective of machine learning. LCS are a family of methods for handling unsupervised learning, supervised learning and sequential decision tasks by decomposing larger problem spaces into easy-to-handle subproblems. Contrary to...

Microscope Image Processing

Academic Press, 2008

Digital image processing is an integral part of microscopy and is increasingly important to the fields of medicine and scientific research. This book provides a unique one-stop reference on the theory, techniques and applications of this technology.

Written by leading experts in the field, the book presents a unique practical perspective...

Intelligence and Security Informatics: Techniques and Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

The book is organized in four major areas. The first unit focuses on the terrorism informatics and data mining. The second unit discusses the intelligence and crime analysis. The third unit covers access control, infrastructure protection, and privacy. The fourth unit presents surveillance and emergency response.

Readers will find the book...

Analysis and Control of Nonlinear Process Systems (Advanced Textbooks in Control and Signal Processing)

Springer, 2004

Almost all process systems are nonlinear in nature. Nonlinear control is traditionally an area of interest in process systems engineering which is of great practical importance. These facts notwithstanding, many process engineers have difficulty with the paradigms and results of modern nonlinear control theory because they lack the mathematical...

Internet Based Workflow Management: Towards a Semantic Web

John Wiley & Sons, 2002

Today, an ever-expanding set of human activities, ranging from business processes to healthcare to education and research, is dependent upon the Internet. Most processes involve a workflow, the coordinated execution of multiple activities. In a given application, once the key stages of the workflow have been isolated, an infrastructure to...
