A thought-provoking look at statistical learning theory and its role in understanding human learning and inductive reasoning
A joint endeavor from leading researchers in the fields of philosophy and electrical engineering, An Elementary Introduction to Statistical Learning Theory is a comprehensive and accessible...
The wealth of insights into the brain’s functioning gained by neuroscience in recent years led to the development of new possibilities for intervening in the brain such as neurotransplantation, neural prostheses and brain stimulation techniques. Moreover, new and safer classes of psychopharmaceutical drugs lend themselves to...
This is a book whose time has come-again. The first edition (published by McGraw-Hill in 1964) was written in 1962, and it celebrated a number of approaches to developing an automata theory that could provide insights into the processing of information in brainlike machines, making it accessible to readers with no more than a college...
This handbook provides a comprehensive overview for students, clinicians and researchers planning to enter the field of neural regeneration, combining the latest knowledge with an understanding of all important model organisms in one handy volume. By covering the strengths and weaknesses as well as possible applications of different models it...
Make more of your data using Clojure and this brilliant cookbook full of real-world recipes. From creating revealing graphs to using data analysis libraries, you'll learn both the basics and advanced techniques.
Overview
Get a handle on the torrent of data the modern Internet has created
The book consists of 19 extended and revised chapters based on original works presented during a poster session organized within the 5th International Conference on Computational Collective Intelligence that was held between 11 and 13 of September 2013 in Craiova, Romania. The book is divided into three parts. The first part is titled...
The book presents some of the most efficient statistical and deterministic methods for information processing and applications in order to extract targeted information and find hidden patterns. The techniques presented range from Bayesian approaches and their variations such as sequential Monte Carlo methods, Markov Chain Monte Carlo filters,...
A range of new and innovative tools used for preformulation and formulation of medicines help optimize pharmaceutical development projects. Such tools also assist with the performance evaluation of the pharmaceutical process, allowing any potential gaps to be identified. These tools can be applied in both basic research and industrial...
These papers on Intelligent Data Analysis and Management (IDAM) examine issues related to the research and applications of Artificial Intelligence techniques in data analysis and management across a variety of disciplines. The papers derive from the 2013 IDAM conference in Kaohsiung ,Taiwan. It is an interdisciplinary research field involving...
Profiles potential treatment approaches for cardiac arrhythmias
Cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular origin are responsible for the deaths of nearly half a million Americans each year while atrial fibrillation accounts for about 2.3 million cases per year, a rate that is projected to increase 2.5 fold over the next half...
With the increasing applications of intelligent robotic systems in various fields, the design and control of these systems have increasingly attracted interest from researchers. This edited book entitled Design and Control of Intelligent Robotic Systems in the book series of Studies in Computational Intelligence is a collection of some...
This morning my newspaper contained the obituary of Sir Alan Hodgkin, Nobel
Laureate together with Andrew Huxley and John Eccles, in physiology and medicine.
What has this to do with our interest in electronics? Well, the prize was
awarded for the elucidation of the mechanism of the propagation of electrical
impulses along neural...
