Artificial Intelligence
Infinity Science Press 2007; US$ 69.95This book offers students and AI programmers a new perspective on the study of artificial intelligence concepts. The essential topics and theory of AI are presented, but it also includes practical information on data input & reduction as well as data output (i.e., algorithm usage). Because traditional AI concepts such as pattern recognition, numerical... more...
3-D Shape Estimation and Image Restoration
Springer 2007; US$ 54.99Presents a coherent framework for the analysis and design of algorithms to estimate 3-D shape from defocused and motion blurred images, and to eliminate defocus and motion blur to yield "restored" images. This book provides a collection of algorithms that are optimal with respect to the chosen model & estimation criterion. more...
Data Complexity in Pattern Recognition
Springer 2006; US$ 119.99Machines capable of automatic pattern recognition have many fascinating uses. Algorithms for supervised classification, where one infers a decision boundary from a set of training examples, are at the core of this capability. This book looks at data complexity and its role in shaping the theories and techniques in different disciplines. more...
Markov Models for Pattern Recognition
Springer 2007; US$ 54.99Markov models are used to solve challenging pattern recognition problems on the basis of sequential data as, e.g., automatic speech or handwriting recognition. This comprehensive introduction to the Markov modeling framework describes both the underlying theoretical concepts of Markov models - covering Hidden Markov models and Markov chain models -... more...
Active Sensor Planning for Multiview Vision Tasks
Springer 2008; US$ 139.99Describes strategies to generate a sequence of viewing poses and sensor settings for optimally completing a perception task. This book offers implementation examples with theoretical methods for testing in a real robot system. more...
Digitally Archiving Cultural Objects
Springer 2008; US$ 139.99A large number of cultural heritage objects around the world are deteriorating or being destroyed due to the work of natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods, and human-inflicted destruction, such as war and vandalism. In the wake of these threats, 3D data becomes a critical component to permanently recording the shapes of these important... more...
