This book considers classical and current theory and practice, of supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised pattern recognition, to build a complete background for professionals and students of engineering. The authors, leading experts in the field of pattern recognition, have provided an up-to-date, self-contained volume encapsulating...
A practical and accessible guide to understanding digital signal processing
Introduction to Digital Signal Processing and Filter Design was developed and fine-tuned from the author's twenty-five years of experience teaching classes in digital signal processing. Following a step-by-step approach, students and...
Adaptive filtering is a branch of digital signal processing which enables the selective enhancement of desired elements of a signal and the reduction of undesired elements. Change detection is another kind of adaptive filtering for non-stationary signals, and is the basic tool in fault detection and diagnosis.
This text takes the...
MATLAB, a software package for high-performance numerical computation and visualization, is one of the most widely used tools in the engineering field today. Its broad appeal lies in its interactive environment, which features hundreds of built-in functions for technical computation, graphics, and animation. In addition, MATLAB provides easy...
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to complex variable theory and its applications to current engineering problems and is designed to make the fundamentals of the subject more easily accessible to readers who have little inclination to wade through the rigors of the axiomatic approach. Modeled after standard calculus books--both in...
Everything you need to use MATLAB and SIMULINK for interactive modeling.
With today's personal computers, students have the power to create simulations of electric machinery that allow them to study transient and control performance and test conceptual designs. The outcome of these simulations can reveal behaviors that may not have been readily...
A state-of-the-art introduction to the powerful mathematical and statistical tools used in the field of finance
The use of mathematical models and numerical techniques is a practice employed by a growing number of applied mathematicians working on applications in finance. Reflecting this development, Numerical Methods in Finance and...
Initial value ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations (PDEs) are among the most widely used forms of mathematics in science and engineering. However, insights from ODE/PDE-based models are realized only when solutions to the equations are produced with acceptable accuracy and with reasonable effort.
This is the first book on parallel MATLAB and the first parallel computing book focused on the design, code, debug, and test techniques required to quickly produce well-performing parallel programs.
MATLAB is currently the dominant language of technical computing with one million users worldwide, many of whom can benefit from the...
The intention of this booklet is a brief but general introduction into the treatment of the Finite Element Method (FEM). The FEM has become the leading method in computer–oriented mechanics, so that many scientific branches have grown up besides over the last decades. Nevertheless, the FEM today is a question of economy. On the one hand...
This book is designed to support a one-semester course in numerical methods. It has been
written for students who want to learn and apply numerical methods in order to solve problems
in engineering and science. As such, the methods are motivated by problems rather
than by mathematics. That said, sufficient theory is provided so...
To learn how to program a computer in a modern language with serious graphical capabilities,
is to take hold of a tool of remarkable flexibility that has the power to provide
profound insight. This text is primarily aimed at being a first course in programming, and
is oriented toward integration with science, mathematics, and...
