"Take fundamental principles of psychology. Illustrate. Combine with Fundamental Principles of Design. Stir gently until fully blended. Read daily until finished. Caution: The mixture is addictive."-- Don Norman, Nielsen Norman group, Author of Design of Future Things.
Human behavior is never an exact science, making the design and programming of artificial intelligence that seeks to replicate human behavior difficult. Usually, the answers cannot be found in sterile algorithms that are often the focus of artificial intelligence programming. However, by analyzing why people behave the way we do, we can break...
The breakthrough of Raman, mid - infrared and near - infrared spectroscopy as practical imaging tools with rational measurement and evaluation times has only taken place in recent years, although Raman and infrared spectroscopy are well - established analytical techniques for research, quality assurance and process control since many decades....
