In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the practices, perspectives and challenges of pattern recognition. Topics include the practical usage of algorithmic probability in pattern recognition; application of pattern recognition in optimization-simulation techniques; pattern recognition applied to spectroscopy;...
This book examines fuzzy relational calculus theory with applications in various engineering subjects. The scope of the text covers unified and exact methods with algorithms for direct and inverse problem resolution in fuzzy relational calculus. Extensive engineering applications of fuzzy relation compositions and fuzzy linear systems...

An exciting new text for the advanced controls course, Control Engineering: A Modern Approach breaks with tradition by introducing a number of new topics--robust controls, for example--and omitting a number of topics dated by the use of digital computers. Bélanger gives the student a real introduction to control engineering...
This book is an essential guide to the implementation of image processing and computer vision techniques, with tutorial introductions and sample code in Matlab. Algorithms are presented and fully explained to enable complete understanding of the methods and techniques demonstrated. As one reviewer noted, "The main strength of the...
The first edition of Fuzzy Logic with Engineering Applications (1995) was the first classroom text for undergraduates in the field. Now updated for the second time, this new edition features the latest advances in the field including material on expansion of the MLFE method using genetic algorithms, cognitive mapping, fuzzy agent-based...
Mathematics and mathematical modelling are of central importance in computer science. For this reason the teaching concepts of mathematics in computer science have to be constantly reconsidered, and the choice of material and the motivation have to be adapted. This applies in particular to mathematical analysis, whose significance has to be...
The first author, Said Elnashaie, and his wife, Shadia Elshishini, moved next door to
the second author, Frank Uhlig, and his family in 2000. The two families became good
neighbors and friends. Their chats covered the usual topics and occasionally included
random teaching, departmental, and...
With the availability of chips offering constantly increasing computational performance and
functionality, design of more and more complex applications becomes possible. This is particularly
true for the domain of image processing, which is characterized by huge computation
efforts. Unfortunately, this evolution risks to be stopped by...
This book presents an introduction to the principles of the fast Fourier transform
(FFT). It covers FFTs, frequency domain filtering, and applications to video and
audio signal processing.
As fields like communications, speech and image processing, and related areas
are rapidly developing, the FFT as one of the essential...
The origin of evolutionary algorithmswas an attempt tomimic some of the processes taking place in natural evolution. Although the details of biological evolution are not completely understood (even nowadays), there exist some points supported by strong experimental evidence:
• Evolution is a process operating over chromosomes...
