Elena Ferrante as World Literature is the first English-language monograph on Italian writer Elena Ferrante, whose four Neapolitan Novels (2011-2014) became a global phenomenon. The book proposes that Ferrante constructs a theory of feminine experience which serves as the scaffolding for her own literary practice....
With the vast development of Internet capacity and speed, as well as wide adoptation
of media technologies in people’s daily life, a large amount of videos have
been surging, and need to be efficiently processed or organized based on interest.
The human visual perception system could, without difficulty, interpret and recognize...
This edited volume assesses capabilities of data mining algorithms for spatial modeling of natural hazards in different countries based on a collection of essays written by experts in the field. The book is organized on different hazards including landslides, flood, forest fire, land subsidence, earthquake, and gully erosion. Chapters were...
?This book presents the outcomes of the symposium “NEW METROPOLITAN PERSPECTIVES,” held at Mediterranea University, Reggio Calabria, Italy on May 26–28, 2020.
Addressing the challenge of Knowledge Dynamics and Innovation-driven Policies Towards Urban and Regional Transition,...
In many decision support fields the data that is exploited tends to be more and more complex. To take this phenomenon into account, classical architectures of data warehouses or data mining algorithms must be completely re-evaluated.
Processing and Managing Complex Data for Decision Support provides readers with an overview of the emerging...
Reality, today's physicists tell us, is created by the vibrations of exquisitely tiny superstrings in ten spatial dimensions. Ten dimensions? Most of us have barely gotten used to the idea that there are four.
Using simple geometry and an easygoing writing style, author Rob Bryanton starts with the lower dimensions that we are...
Remote Sensing image analysis is mostly done using only spectral information on a pixel by pixel basis. Information captured in neighbouring cells, or information about patterns surrounding the pixel of interest often provides useful supplementary information. This book presents a wide range of innovative and advanced image processing methods for...
This book collects a wealth of information about spatial audio coding into one comprehensible volume. It is a thorough reference to the 3GPP and MPEG Parametric Stereo standards and the MPEG Surround multi-channel audio coding standard. It describes key developments in coding techniques, which is an important factor in the optimization of...
Using MATLAB® examples wherever possible, Multi-Sensor Data Fusion with MATLAB explores the three levels of multi-sensor data fusion (MSDF): kinematic-level fusion, including the theory of DF; fuzzy logic and decision fusion; and pixel- and feature-level image fusion. The authors elucidate DF...
The Second Edition of the best-selling Handbook of Computer Vision Algorithms in Image Algebra, continues to provide an outstanding introduction to Image Algebra. It describes more than 80 fundamental computer vision techniques and introduces the portable iac++ library, which supports image algebra programming in the C++ language. Revisions to...
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...
