Geometric Algorithms and Combinatorial Optimization (Algorithms and Combinatorics 2)

Springer, 1988

This book develops geometric techniques for proving the polynomial time solvability of problems in convexity theory, geometry, and - in particular - combinatorial optimization. It offers a unifying approach based on two fundamental geometric algorithms: - the ellipsoid method for finding a point in a convex set and - the basis reduction...

$Doing Math with Python: Use Programming to Explore Algebra, Statistics, Calculus, and More!$

Doing Math with Python: Use Programming to Explore Algebra, Statistics, Calculus, and More!

No Starch Press, 2015

Doing Math with Python shows you how to use Python to delve into high school–level math topics like statistics, geometry, probability, and calculus. You’ll start with simple projects, like a factoring program and a quadratic-equation solver, and then create more complex projects once you’ve gotten the hang of...

Quantum Computer Science (Synthesis Lectures on Quantum Computing)

Morgan and Claypool Publishers, 2008

In this text we present a technical overview of the emerging field of quantum computation along with new research results by the authors. What distinguishes our presentation from that of others is our focus on the relationship between quantum computation and computer science. Specifically, our emphasis is on the computational model of quantum...

Python Programming for Teens

Cengage Learning, 2014

If you want to learn how to program in Python, one of today's most popular computer programming languages, PYTHON PROGRAMMING FOR TEENS is the perfect first step.

Kinematic Analysis of Robot Manipulators

Cambridge University Press, 2008

This text provides a first-level understanding of the structure, mobility, and analysis of serial manipulators. A serial manipulator is an unclosed or open movable polygon consisting of a series of links and joints. One end is fixed to ground, and attached to the open end is a hand or end effector that can move freely in space.

The...

The Fractal Geometry of Nature

W. H. Freeman, 1983

Imagine an equilateral triangle. Now, imagine smaller equilateral triangles perched in the center of each side of the original triangle--you have a Star of David. Now, place still smaller equilateral triangles in the center of each of the star's 12 sides. Repeat this process infinitely and you have a Koch snowflake, a mind-bending geometric...

Topics in Geometry, Coding Theory and Cryptography (Algebra and Applications)

Springer, 2006

The purpose of this reviewarticle is to serve as an introduction and at the same time, as an invitation to the theory of towers of function fields over finite fields. More specifically, we treat here the case of explicit towers; i.e., towers where the function fields are given by explicit equations. The asymptotic behaviour of the genus and of the...

Geometric Fundamentals of Robotics (Monographs in Computer Science)

Springer, 2004

Geometric Fundamentals of Robotics provides an elegant introduction to the geometric concepts that are important to applications in robotics. This second edition is still unique in providing a deep understanding of the subject: rather than focusing on computational results in kinematics and robotics, it includes significant state-of-the...

Computational Studies of Human Motion: Part 1, Tracking and Motion Synthesis

Now Publishers, 2006

Computational Studies of Human Motion: Part 1, Tracking and Motion Synthesis reviews methods for kinematic tracking of the human body in video. The review confines itself to the earlier stages of motion, focusing on tracking and motion synthesis. There is an extensive discussion of open issues. The authors identify some puzzling phenomena...

Computational Geometry: An Introduction Through Randomized Algorithms

Prentice Hall, 1993

This introduction to computational geometry is designed for beginners. It emphasizes simple randomized methods, developing basic principles with the help of planar applications, beginning with deterministic algorithms and shifting to randomized algorithms as the problems become more complex. It also explores higher dimensional advanced...
