Hillbilly: A Cultural History of an American Icon

Oxford University Press, 2003

Harkins, assistant professor of history at Western Kentucky University, means to examine the "cultural and ideological construct `the hillbilly'... rather than the actual people of the southern mountains." To this end, he examines some obscure early American printed material, Paul Webb's Esquire magazine cartoons from...

Multiple Abstraction Hierarchies for Mobile Robot Operation in Large Environments (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2007

This book focuses on the efficient performance of mobile robots through the use of multi-hierarchical symbolic representations of the environment.

A mobile robot intended to perform deliberative actions must possess some symbolic representation of its workspace, but such representations of real environments usually become so large that should...

Introduction to Chemical Engineering Analysis Using Mathematica

Academic Press, 2002

This book provides an introduction to chemical engineering analysis- which reviews the processes and designs used to manufacture, use, and dispose of chemical products-and to Mathematica, one of the most powerful mathematical software tools available for symbolic, numerical, and graphical computing. Analysis and computation are explained...

Knowledge-Based Neurocomputing: A Fuzzy Logic Approach (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2009

In this monograph, the authors introduce a novel fuzzy rule-base, referred to as the Fuzzy All-permutations Rule-Base (FARB). They show that inferring the FARB, using standard tools from fuzzy logic theory, yields an input-output map that is mathematically equivalent to that of an artificial neural network. Conversely, every standard...

Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation: Mathematical Methods

AK Peter, 2003

Computer algebra is the field of mathematics and computer science that is concerned with the development, implementation, and application of algorithms that manipulate and analyze mathematical expressions. This book and the companion text, Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation: Mathematical Methods, are an introduction to the subject that...

Handbook of Mathematical Formulas and Integrals, Fourth Edition

Academic Press, 2008

This book contains a collection of general mathematical results, formulas, and integrals that occur throughout applications of mathematics. Many of the entries are based on the updated fifth edition of Gradshteyn and Ryzhik’s ”Tables of Integrals, Series, and Products,” though during the preparation of the book, results were also...

Handbook of Natural Language Processing, Second Edition

CRC Press, 2010

As the title of this book suggests, it is an update of the first edition of the Handbook of Natural Language Processing which was edited by Robert Dale, Hermann Moisl, and Harold Somers and published in the year 2000. The vigorous growth of new methods in Natural Language Processing (henceforth, NLP) since then, strongly suggested that...

The Mathematica Book, Fifth Edition

Wolfram Media, 2003

As both a highly readable tutorial and a definitive reference for over a million Mathematica users worldwide, this book covers every aspect of Mathematica. It is an essential resource for all users of Mathematica from beginners to experts. This expanded fifth edition presents Mathematica Version 5 for the first time and is important for...

Heuristic Search: Theory and Applications

Morgan Kaufmann, 2011

Search has been vital to artificial intelligence from the very beginning as a core technique in problem solving. The authors present a thorough overview of heuristic search with a balance of discussion between theoretical analysis and efficient implementation and application to real-world problems. Current developments in search such as...

Computer Algebra Recipes: An Advanced Guide to Scientific Modeling

Springer, 2007

A computer algebra system (CAS) not only has the number \crunching" and plotting capability of traditional computing languages such as Fortran and C, but also allows one to perform the symbolic manipulations and derivations required in most mathematically based science and engineering courses. To introduce students in these disciplines to...

Solving Problems in Scientific Computing Using Maple and Matlab®

Springer, 1993

Modern computing tools like MAPLE (a symbolic computation package) and MATLAB (a numeric computation and visualization program) make it possible to use the techniques of scientific computing to solve realistic nontrivial problems in a classroom setting. These...

Conceptual Spaces: The Geometry of Thought

MIT Press, 2000

"This is a fearless book that casts a wide net around key issues in cognitive science. It offers the kind of coherent, unified view that the field badly needs." - Steven Sloman, Associate Professor, Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences, Brown University"

Within cognitive science, two approaches currently dominate...
