Trying to tackle algebra but nothing's adding up? No problem! Factor in Algebra Demystified, Second Edition and multiply your chances of learning this important branch of mathematics.
Written in a step-by-step format, this practical guide covers fractions, variables,...
Soft computing, as a collection of techniques exploiting approximation and tolerance for imprecision and uncertainty in traditionally intractable problems, has become very effective and popular especially because of the synergy derived from its components. The integration of constituent technologies provides complementary methods that allow...
Numerical analysis is the branch of mathematics that is used to find approximations to difficult
problems such as finding the roots of non-linear equations, integration involving complex
expressions and solving differential equations for which analytical solutions do not exist. It is
applied to a wide variety of disciplines such as...
The purpose of this book is to provide graduate students and practitioners with traditional methods and more recent results for model-based approaches in signal processing.
Firstly, discrete-time linear models such as AR, MA and ARMA models, their properties and their limitations are introduced. In addition, sinusoidal models are...
This updated third edition illustrates the mathematical concepts that a game developer needs to develop 3D computer graphics and game engines at the professional level. It starts at a fairly basic level in areas such as vector geometry and linear algebra, and then progresses to more advanced topics in 3D programming such as illumination and...
Wiley-Interscience Series in Discrete Mathematics and Optimization Advisory Editors Ronald L. Graham Jan Karel Lenstra Robert E. Tarjan Discrete Mathematics and Optimization involves the study of finite structures. It is one of the fastest growing areas in mathematics today. The level and depth of recent advances in the area and the wide...
The objective of this book is to present a substantial introduction to the ideas, phenomena and methods of the problems that are frequently observed in mathematics, mathematical physics and engineering technology. The book can be appreciated at a considerable number of levels and is designed for everyone from amateurs to research workmen.
This volume contains the papers presented at the 14th International Workshop
on Approximation Algorithms for Combinatorial Optimization Problems
(APPROX 2011) and the 15th International Workshop on Randomization and
Computation (RANDOM 2011), which took place concurrently in Princeton
University, USA, during August 17–19,...
These Lecture Notes are based on a series of lectures I gave at the Linkoping University
Department of Electrical Engineering in 1988. In these lectures 1 tried to give an overview
of the theory of representation of compact groups and some applications in the fields of
image science and pattern recognition.
Using mathematical tools from number theory and finite fields, Applied Algebra: Codes, Ciphers, and Discrete Algorithms, Second Edition presents practical methods for solving problems in data security and data integrity. It is designed for an applied algebra course for students who have had prior classes in abstract or linear...
This monograph presents a comparison of methods for organizing very large amounts of stored data called a very large database to facilitate fast retrieval of desired information on direct access storage devices. In a very large data base involving retrieval and updating, the major factor of immediate concern is the average number of accesses...
Formerly used mainly by specialists in signal processing and numerical
analysis, MATLAB® in recent years has achieved widespread and enthusiastic
acceptance throughout the engineering community. Many engineering
schools now require a course based entirely or in part on MATLAB early in
the curriculum. MATLAB is programmable and has...
