Foundations of Computer Vision: Computational Geometry, Visual Image Structures and Object Shape Detection (Intelligent Systems Reference Library)

Springer, 2017

This book introduces the fundamentals of computer vision (CV), with a focus on extracting useful information from digital images and videos. Including a wealth of methods used in detecting and classifying image objects and their shapes, it is the first book to apply a trio of tools (computational geometry, topology and algorithms) in solving...

Street-Fighting Mathematics: The Art of Educated Guessing and Opportunistic Problem Solving (The MIT Press)

MIT Press, 2010

Too much mathematical rigor teaches rigor mortis: the fear of making an unjustified leap even when it lands on a correct result. Instead of paralysis, have courage—shoot first and ask questions later. Although unwise as public policy, it is a valuable problem-solving philosophy, and it is the theme of this book: how to...

Problem Solving with C++

Addison Wesley, 2008

This book is meant to be used in a first course in programming and computer science using the C++ language. It assumes no previous programming experience and no mathematics beyond high school algebra.

If you have used the previous edition of this book, you should read the following section that explains the changes...

Nonlinear integrals and their applications in data mining (Advances in Fuzzy Systemss - Applications and Theory)

World Scientific Publishing, 2010

Regarding the set of all feature attributes in a given database as the universal set, this monograph discusses various nonadditive set functions that describe the interaction among the contributions from feature attributes towards a considered target attribute. Then, the relevant nonlinear integrals are investigated. These integrals can be...

Mathematical Logic for Computer Science

Springer, 2003

This is a mathematics textbook with theorems and proofs. The choice of topics has been guided by the needs of computer science students. The method of semantic tableaux provides an elegant way to teach logic that is both theoretically sound and yet sufficiently elementary for undergraduates. In order to provide a balanced treatment of logic,...

Numerical and Analytical Methods for Scientists and Engineers, Using Mathematica

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

Up to this point in your career you have been asked to use mathematics to solve rather elementary problems in the physical sciences. However, when you graduate and become a working scientist or engineer you will often be confronted with complex real-world problems. Understanding the material in this book is a first step toward...

Combinatorial Methods with Computer Applications (Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications)

CRC Press, 2007

Combinatorial Methods with Computer Applications provides in-depth coverage of recurrences, generating functions, partitions, and permutations, along with some of the most interesting graph and network topics, design constructions, and finite geometries. Requiring only a foundation in discrete mathematics, it can serve as the...

Raspberry Pi Supercomputing and Scientific Programming: MPI4PY, NumPy, and SciPy for Enthusiasts

Apress, 2017

Build an inexpensive cluster of multiple Raspberry Pi computers and install all the required libraries to write parallel and scientific programs in Python 3. This book covers setting up your Raspberry Pis, installing the necessary software, and making a cluster of multiple Pis.

Once the cluster is built, its power...

Matlab for Engineers

Prentice Hall, 2011

This book grew out of my experience teaching MATLAB® and other computing languages to freshmen engineering students at Salt Lake Community College. I was frustrated by the lack of a text that “started at the beginning.” Although there were many comprehensive reference books, they assumed a level of both mathematical and...

Ideals, Varieties, and Algorithms: An Introduction to Computational Algebraic Geometry and Commutative Algebra (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics)

Springer, 2008

This book details the heart and soul of modern commutative and algebraic geometry. It covers such topics as the Hilbert Basis Theorem, the Nullstellensatz, invariant theory, projective geometry, and dimension theory. In addition to enhancing the text of the second edition, with over 200 pages reflecting changes to enhance clarity and...
