Adiabatic Quantum Computation and Quantum Annealing

McGeoch, Catherine C.

Adiabatic quantum computation (AQC) is an alternative to the better-known gate model of quantum computation. The two models are polynomially equivalent, but otherwise quite dissimilar: one property that distinguishes AQC from the gate model is its analog nature. Quantum annealing (QA) describes a ty...

Modeling a Ship S Ferromagnetic Signatures

Holmes, John

Ferromagnetic models of ships and submarines that predict or reproduce their magnetic signatures have found applications in the development of both offensive and defensive military systems from World War II to the present. The mathematical basis of generalized coordinate systems will be presented an...

Incentive-Centric Semantic Web Application Engineering

Simperl, Elena / Cuel, Roberta / Stein, Martin

While many Web 2.0-inspired approaches to semantic content authoring do acknowledge motivation and incentives as the main drivers of user involvement, the amount of useful human contributions actually available will always remain a scarce resource. Complementarily, there are aspects of semantic cont...

Survive and Thrive

Crone, Wendy C.

The experience of an untenured faculty member is highly dependent on the quality of the mentoring they receive. This mentoring may come from a number of different sources, and the concept of developing a constellation of mentors is highly recommended, but a mentoring relationship that is guided by t...

Outlier Detection for Temporal Data

Gupta, Manish / Gao, Jing / Aggarwal, Charu

Outlier (or anomaly) detection is a very broad field which has been studied in the context of a large number of research areas like statistics, data mining, sensor networks, environmental science, distributed systems, spatio-temporal mining, etc. Initial research in outlier detection focused on time...

The Taxobook

Hlava, Marjorie

This book outlines the basic principles of creation and maintenance of taxonomies and thesauri. It also provides step by step instructions for building a taxonomy or thesaurus and discusses the various ways to get started on a taxonomy construction project. Often, the first step is to get managemen...

Developing Embedded Software Using DaVinci and Omap Technology

Pawate, B. I.

This book discusses how to develop embedded products using DaVinci & OMAP Technology from Texas Instruments Incorporated. It presents a single software platform for diverse hardware platforms. DaVinci & OMAP Technology refers to the family of processors, development tools, software products, and sup...

Basic Probability Theory for Biomedical Engineers

Enderle, John / Farden, David / Krause, Daniel

This is the first in a series of short books on probability theory and random processes for biomedical engineers. This text is written as an introduction to probability theory. The goal was to prepare students, engineers and scientists at all levels of background and experience for the application o...

Analysis Techniques for Information Security

Datta, Anupam / Jha, Somesh / Li, Ninghui

Increasingly our critical infrastructures are reliant on computers. We see examples of such infrastructures in several domains, including medical, power, telecommunications, and finance. Although automation has advantages, increased reliance on computers exposes our critical infrastructures to a wid...

Exploratory Search

White, Ryen / Roth, Resa

As information becomes more ubiquitous and the demands that searchers have on search systems grow, there is a need to support search behaviors beyond simple lookup. Information seeking is the process or activity of attempting to obtain information in both human and technological contexts. Explorator...

Computational Modeling of Human Language Acquisition

Alishahi, Afra

Human language acquisition has been studied for centuries, but using computational modeling for such studies is a relatively recent trend. However, computational approaches to language learning have become increasingly popular, mainly due to advances in developing machine learning techniques, and th...

Advanced Probability Theory for Biomedical Engineers

Enderle, John D. / Farden, David C. / Krause, Daniel J.

This is the third in a series of short books on probability theory and random processes for biomedical engineers. This book focuses on standard probability distributions commonly encountered in biomedical engineering. The exponential, Poisson and Gaussian distributions are introduced, as well as imp...
