Most of the research and experiments in the fields of modeling and control systems have spent significant efforts to find rules from various complicated phenomena by principles, observations, measured data, logic derivations. The rules are normally summarized as concise and quantitative expressions or “models”....
Until recently, experimental philosophy has been associated with the questionnaire-based study of intuitions. This volume brings together established and emerging research leaders from several areas of experimental philosophy to explore how new empirical methods from the behavioural sciences and digital humanities can contribute to...
The book is based on interdisciplinary research on various aspects and dynamics of human multimodal signal exchanges. It discusses realistic application scenarios where human interaction is the focus, in order to
identify new methods for data processing and data flow coordination through synchronization, and...
A feminist media history of quantification, uncovering the stories behind the tools and technologies we use to count, measure, and weigh our lives and realities.
Anglo-American culture has used media to measure and quantify lives for centuries. Historical journal entries map the details of everyday life, while death...
Stochastic differential equations are differential equations whose solutions are stochastic processes. They exhibit appealing mathematical properties that are useful in modeling uncertainties and noisy phenomena in many disciplines. This book is motivated by applications of stochastic differential equations in target tracking and medical...
Nanodelivery of drugs is an area of growing interest. Some key factors such as small size and high
surface area, along with drug loading capability, make these ideal drug delivery systems. These can
easily be modified to cater to diverse therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Nanoparticles bridge
the gap between biomedical and...

This form of marketing?currently utilized with great success on Instagram and YouTube?is not a short-lived fad, but a tectonic shift for the future of digital advertising. It's the way of the future, and the responsibility is on...
Have you been on projects where halfway down the road it seems increasingly
unlikely that you will finish as desired, but you can’t put your finger on it and
simply push through with a growing resentment? Have you been in meetings
where scope discussions get increasingly difficult and depressing, ultimately
sucking the...
This book is a collection of carefully selected works presented at the Third International Conference on Computer Vision & Image Processing (CVIP 2018). The conference was organized by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering of PDPM Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design & Manufacturing, Jabalpur, India...
Virtual reality is quickly becoming the next medium to communicate your ideas. Once siloed in make-believe world of science fiction, virtual reality can now touch any aspect of your life. This book shows you how to create original virtual reality content using the Unity game engine and the Virtual Reality Tool Kit. By the end 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...
