Soft Sensors for Monitoring and Control of Industrial Processes
Springer 2007; US$ 149.99The non-linear behaviour exhibited by many industrial processes can be usefully modelled with the techniques of computational intelligence: neural networks, fuzzy systems and nonlinear partial least squares. This book underlines the usefulness of the approaches and the sensitivity of the individual steps in soft-sensor design. more...
Smart Sensor Systems
Wiley 2008; US$ 115.00Information processing systems need sensors to acquire the physical, mechanical and chemical information to be able to function. For extended use of sensors in industrial production tools and consumer components, such as smart cars and smart homes, the reliability of the sensors should be improved and the cost dramatically reduced. The improvement... more...
Introduction to Image Stabilization
SPIE 2006; US$ 43.35The use of image stabilization has grown to the point that it is now a common component of modern optical systems for imaging, communications, and remote-sensing applications. The benefits of image stabilization to astronomical research alone are so rich that it is common for astronomical telescopes, built over the last century, to be retrofitted... more...

Dynamic Vision
World Scientific Publishing Company 2000; US$ 72.80Face recognition is a task that the human vision system seems to perform almost effortlessly, yet the goal of building computer-based systems with comparable capabilities has proven to be difficult. The task implicitly requires the ability to locate and track faces through often complex and dynamic scenes. Recognition is difficult because of variations... more...
Biometrics
RAND Corporation 2003; US$ 9.95John D. Woodward presented this briefing to the Virginia State Crime Commission Facial Recognition Sub-committee in September 2002. This briefing defines biometrics and discusses examples of the technology, explaining how biometrics may be used for authentication and surveillance purposes. more...

High Performance Instrumentation and Automation
CRC Press 2005; US$ 139.95This book is the first to integrate advanced sensor-based measurement instrumentation design and automated system design with case studies into a single, comprehensive presentation. more...
Modern sensors
ISTE 2007; US$ 270.00Sensors are one of the key elements in modern systems, as they determine the quality of the information that is acquired from real life and used for control and decision making. The global market for sensors is fast growing and the innovation rate is extremely high. Despite the conservative attitudes held by some towards sensor innovations, it is vitally... more...
