Building robots that sense and interact with their environment used to be tricky. Now, Arduino makes it easy. With this book and an Arduino microcontroller and software creation environment, you’ll learn how to build and program a robot that can roam around, sense its environment, and perform a wide variety of tasks. All you to...
Intelligent decision support relies on techniques from a variety of disciplines, including artificial intelligence and database management systems. Most of the existing literature neglects the relationship between these disciplines. By integrating AI and DBMS, Computational Intelligence for Decision Support produces what other texts...
Computer applications for image processing in radiological imaging have matured
over the past decade and are now considered an indispensable tool for extracting maximal
information from the enormous amount of data obtained with the new cross-sectional
techniques such as ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance...
PROBABILITY AND STATISTICS FOR ENGINEERS AND SCIENTISTS, Fourth Edition, continues the approach that has made previous editions successful. As a teacher and researcher at a premier engineering school, author Tony Hayter is in touch with engineers daily--and understands their vocabulary. The result of this familiarity with the professional...
Apple has been issuing checks to developers, and the 2012 figures indicate that it has so far been
to the tune of $5 billion. In the past, it used to be desktops with Microsoft-based products that were
raking in money for developers, with Visual Basic, or earlier with database products such as dBase
and FoxPro. While the major share...
Treatment of patients with a brain tumor remains one of the most challenging and difficult areas of modern oncology. Recent advances in the molecular biology of these neoplasms have improved our understanding of the malignant phenotype and have lead to the development of novel forms of chemotherapy, including "targeted” agents. The...
