Understanding Computational Bayesian Statistics (Wiley Series in Computational Statistics)

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

In theory, Bayesian statistics is very simple. The posterior is proportional to the prior times likelihood. This gives the shape of the posterior, but it is not a density so it cannot be used for inference. The exact scale factor needed to make this a density can be found only in a few special cases. For other cases, the scale...

Introduction to Video and Image Processing: Building Real Systems and Applications

One of the first times I ever encountered video and image processing was in a semester project at my fourth year of studying. The aim of the project was to design a system that automatically located the center and size of mushrooms in an image. Given this information a robot should pick the mushrooms. I was intrigued by the...

Verifying Concurrent Processes Using Temporal Logic (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) (v. 129)

Springer, 1982

Concurrent processes can exhibit extremely complicated behavior, and neither informal reasoning nor testing is reliable enough to establish their correctness.
