Applied Graph Theory in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2007

This book will serve as a foundation for a variety of useful applications of graph theory to computer vision, pattern recognition, and related areas. It covers a representative set of novel graph-theoretic methods for complex computer vision and pattern recognition tasks. The first part of the book presents the application of graph theory to...

A Unified Framework for Video Summarization, Browsing & Retrieval: with Applications to Consumer and Surveillance Video

Academic Press, 2005

Large volumes of video content can only be easily accessed by the use of rapid browsing and retrieval techniques. Constructing a video table of contents (ToC) and video highlights to enable end users to sift through all this data and find what they want, when they want are essential. This reference puts forth a unified framework to integrate these...

Strained Hydrocarbons: Beyond the van't Hoff and Le Bel Hypothesis

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

In clearly structured chapters, this book covers the fascinating world of hydrocarbons, providing an insight into the fundamental principles of chemistry. The monograph covers modern aspects of the topic, such as carbon nanotubes, molecular flask inclusion, and fullerenes, with new synthetic procedures for the build up of the structural lattice...

Computational and Instrumental Methods in EPR (Biological Magnetic Resonance)

Springer, 2006

Electron magnetic resonance in the time domain has been greatly facilitated by the introduction of novel resonance structures and better computational tools, such as the increasingly widespread use of density-matrix formalism. This second volume in our series, devoted both to instrumentation and computation, addresses applications and...

Spatial Augmented Reality: Merging Real and Virtual Worlds

AK Peter, 2005

Like virtual reality, augmented reality is becoming an emerging platform in new application areas for museums, edutainment, home entertainment, research, industry, and the art communities using novel approaches which have taken augmented reality beyond traditional eye-worn or hand-held displays.

In this book, the authors discuss spatial...

Hybrid Methods in Pattern Recognition

Wordware Publishing, 2002

The discipline of pattern recognition has seen enormous progress since its beginnings more than four decades ago. Over the years various approaches have emerged, based on statistical decision theory, structural matching and parsing, neural networks, fuzzy logic, artificial intelligence, evolutionary computing, and others. Obviously, these...

Organic Semiconductors in Sensor Applications (Springer Series in Materials Science)

Springer, 2008

Organic semiconductors offer unique characteristics such as tunability of electronic properties via chemical synthesis, compatibility with mechanically flexible substrates, low-cost manufacturing, and facile integration with chemical and biological functionalities. These characteristics have prompted the application of organic semiconductors and...

Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramics: Twenty-First Century Materials with Diverse Applications

Elsevier Limited, 2005

A single source of for the science and applications of chemically bonded phosphate ceramics

The first chemically bonded phosphate ceramics (zinc phosphate dental cements) were developed over a century ago. However it has only been in the last 30 years that a new breed of materials has been discovered. This book brings...

ThermoPoetics: Energy in Victorian Literature and Science

MIT Press, 2010

In ThermoPoetics, Barri Gold sets out to show us how analogous, intertwined, and mutually productive poetry and physics may be. Charting the simultaneous emergence of the laws of thermodynamics in literature and in physics that began in the 1830s, Gold finds that not only can science influence literature, but literature can influence...

Ambient Assisted Living: Italian Forum 2018 (Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering)

Springer, 2019

This book documents the state of the art in the field of ambient assisted living (AAL), highlighting the impressive potential of novel methodologies and technologies to enhance well-being and promote active ageing. The coverage is wide ranging, with sections on care models and algorithms, enabling technologies and assistive...

Energy-Based Control of Electromechanical Systems: A Novel Passivity-Based Approach (Advances in Industrial Control)

Springer, 2020

This book introduces a passivity-based approach which simplifies the controller design task for AC-motors. It presents the application of this novel approach to several classes of AC motors, magnetic levitation systems, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and rigid robot manipulators actuated by AC motors.

The novel...
