Generative Art

Manning Publications, 2011

As a young man, this career shift wasn’t entirely motivated by a need to restore the right-left hemisphere balance to my young brain; it may also have had something to do with the worry that knowing a lot about Alan Turing and C++ was probably not the best way to get a girlfriend.

My studies of early 1990s ideas...

Quantum Medicinal Chemistry (Methods and Principles in Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 17)

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

Everyone relies on the power of computers, including chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories. Increasingly faster and more exact simulation algorithms have made quantum chemistry a valuable tool in the search for bioactive substances. The much larger computational cost is more than compensated by a deeper understanding of...

The Marketing Agency Blueprint: The Handbook for Building Hybrid PR, SEO, Content, Advertising, and Web Firms

John Wiley & Sons, 2011

When I started HubSpot in June 2006 with my business partner, Dharmesh Shah, our experiences with marketing agencies led us to almost entirely avoid working with them. In fact, we designed our original business model around selling our marketing software directly to end customers, and developed an internal marketing team that would not be...

Springer, 2012

These proceedings contain the papers that were presented at the 5th International Conference on Language and Automata Theory and Applications (LATA 2011), held in Tarragona, Spain, during May 26–31, 2011.

The scope of LATA is rather broad, including: algebraic language theory; algorithms for semi-structured...

Bayesian Reasoning and Machine Learning

Cambridge University Press, 2012

We live in a world that is rich in data, ever increasing in scale. This data comes from many dierent sources in science (bioinformatics, astronomy, physics, environmental monitoring) and commerce (customer databases, nancial transactions, engine monitoring, speech recognition, surveillance, search). Possessing the knowledge as to...

Integrated Molecular and Cellular Biophysics

Springer, 2008

Biophysics represents perhaps one of the best examples of interdisciplinary research areas, where concepts and methods from disciplines such as physics, biology, biochemistry, colloid chemistry, and physiology are integrated. It is by no means a new field of study and has actually been around, initially as quantitative physiology...

Testing of Genetically Modified Organisms in Foods

CRC Press, 2004

Examine several methods of testing for genetically modified organisms and the reasons behind their strict regulation!

Testing of Genetically Modified Organisms in Foods is the first study of the screening methods and tools utilized for determining the presence of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food products. Leading...

How Do Witches Fly? A practical approach to nocturnal flights.

Dna Press, 1999

Books which examine the folklore of Europe's traditional "witch" plants are not uncommon, and some give some coverage to describing the psychotropic and hallucinogenic effects of these plants on the human body. However this book is rather more unusual than that in that the author is first and foremost a biochemist with an...

Random Polymer Models

Imperial College Press, 2007

This work deals with a well-defined class of probabilistic models. The focus is on polymers. More precisely I should say that the focus is on the equilibrium statistical mechanics of a class of polymers: dynamical and non-equilibrium phenomena are not treated, reflecting the fact that these directions are at the moment...

Constraint Processing (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Artificial Intelligence)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2003

A constraint is a restriction on a space of possibilities; it is a piece of knowledge that narrows the scope of this space. Because constraints arise naturally in most areas of human endeavor, they are the most general means for formulating regularities that govern our computational, physical, biological, and social worlds. Some...

Bioinformatics: The Machine Learning Approach, Second Edition (Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning)

MIT Press, 2001

We have been very pleased, beyond our expectations, with the reception of the first edition of this book. Bioinformatics, however, continues to evolve very rapidly, hence the need for a new edition. In the past three years, fullgenome sequencing has blossomed with the completion of the sequence of the fly and the first draft of the...
