| | Geometric Algebra for Computer Science: An Object-Oriented Approach to GeometryGeometric algebra is a powerful and practical framework for the representation and solution of geometrical problems. We believe it to be eminently suitable to those subfields of computer science in which such issues occur: computer graphics, robotics, and computer vision.We wrote this book to explain the basic structure of geometric algebra, and to... | | |

An Introduction to Hopf Algebras
The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to Hopf algebras. This
book differs from other texts in that Hopf algebras are developed from notions of
topological spaces, sheaves, and representable functors. This approach has certain
pedagogical advantages, the foremost being that algebraic geometry and category
theory... | | Geometry, Topology and Physics, Second Edition (Graduate Student Series in Physics)This book provides an introduction to the ideas and techniques of differential geometry and topology. It starts with a brief survey of quantum field theory, gauge theory, general relativity, vector spaces, and topology. Using many illustrations, exercises, and problems, the author demonstrates more elaborate concepts of topology and geometry,... | | Computer Vision: A Modern Approach (2nd Edition)
Computer vision as a field is an intellectual frontier. Like any frontier, it is
exciting and disorganized, and there is often no reliable authority to appeal to.
Many useful ideas have no theoretical grounding, and some theories are useless
in practice; developed areas are widely scattered, and ... |

Geometric Data Structures for Computer GraphicsData structures and tools from computational geometry help to solve problems in computer graphics; these methods have been widely adopted by the computer graphics community yielding elegant and efficient algorithms.
This book focuses on algorithms and data structures that have proven to be versatile, efficient, fundamental, and easy... | | Combinatorial Image Analysis: 12th International Workshop, IWCIA 2008, Buffalo, NY, USA, April 7-9, 2008, ProceedingsThis volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Workshop on Combinatorial Image Analysis, IWCIA 2008, held in Buffalo, NY, USA, in April 2008.
The 28 revised full papers and 10 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 117 initial submissions. The papers are organized in topical... | | Introduction to General RelativityA student-friendly style, over 100 illustrations, and numerous exercises are brought together in this textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students in physics and mathematics. Lewis Ryder develops the theory of general relativity in detail. Covering the core topics of black holes, gravitational radiation, and cosmology, he... |
