Neutral Interfacing

Coates, Susanne D.

In the past 50 years there has been an explosion of interest in the development of technologies whose end goal is to connect the human brain and/or nervous system directly to computers. Once the subject of science fiction, the technologies necessary to accomplish this goal are rapidly becoming reali...

Applications of Zero-Suppressed Decision Diagrams

Sasao, Tsutomu / Butler, Jon T.

A zero-suppressed decision diagram (ZDD) is a data structure to represent objects that typically contain many zeros. Applications include combinatorial problems, such as graphs, circuits, faults, and data mining. This book consists of four chapters on the applications of ZDDs. The first chapter by...

Linguistic Structure Prediction

Smith, Noah A.

A major part of natural language processing now depends on the use of text data to build linguistic analyzers. We consider statistical, computational approaches to modeling linguistic structure. We seek to unify across many approaches and many kinds of linguistic structures. Assuming a basic underst...

The Transmission-Line Modeling (Tlm) Method in Electromagnetics

Christopoulos, Christos

This book presents the topic in electromagnetics known as Transmission-Line Modeling or Matrix method-TLM. While it is written for engineering students at graduate and advanced undergraduate levels, it is also highly suitable for specialists in computational electromagnetics working in industry, who...

Introduction to Semi-Supervised Learning

Zhu, Xiaojin / Goldberg, Andrew

Semi-supervised learning is a learning paradigm concerned with the study of how computers and natural systems such as humans learn in the presence of both labeled and unlabeled data. Traditionally, learning has been studied either in the unsupervised paradigm (e.g., clustering, outlier detection) wh...

Experience Design

Hassenzahl, Marc

In his In the blink of an eye, Walter Murch, the Oscar-awarded editor of The English Patient, Apocalypse Now, and many other outstanding movies, devises the Rule of Six -- six criteria for what makes a good cut. On top of his list is "to be true to the emotion of the moment," a quality more importan...

Statistics Is Easy! Second Edition

Shasha, Dennis / Wilson, Manda

Statistics is the activity of inferring results about a population given a sample. Historically, statistics books assume an underlying distribution to the data (typically, the normal distribution) and derive results under that assumption. Unfortunately, in real life, one cannot normally be sure of t...

Designing Asynchronous Circuits Using Null Convention Logic (Ncl)

Smith, Scott C. / Di, Jia

Designing Asynchronous Circuits using NULL Convention Logic (NCL) begins with an introduction to asynchronous (clockless) logic in general, and then focuses on delay-insensitive asynchronous logic design using the NCL paradigm. The book details design of input-complete and observable dual-rail and q...

Practical Global Illumination with Irradiance Caching

Krivanek, Jaroslav / Gautron, Pascal

Irradiance caching is a ray tracing-based technique for computing global illumination on diffuse surfaces. Specifically, it addresses the computation of indirect illumination bouncing off one diffuse object onto another. The sole purpose of irradiance caching is to make this computation reasonably f...

Hardware and Software Support for Virtualization

Bugnion, Edouard / Nieh, Jason / Tsafrir, Dan

This book focuses on the core question of the necessary architectural support provided by hardware to efficiently run virtual machines, and of the corresponding design of the hypervisors that run them. Virtualization is still possible when the instruction set architecture lacks such support, but the...

Fundamentals of Electronics

Schubert, Thomas F. / Kim, Ernest M.

This book, Electronic Devices and Circuit Application, is the first of four books of a larger work, Fundamentals of Electronics. It is comprised of four chapters describing the basic operation of each of the four fundamental building blocks of modern electronics: operational amplifiers, semiconducto...

Introduction to Embedded Systems

Russell, David

Many electrical and computer engineering projects involve some kind of embedded system in which a microcontroller sits at the center as the primary source of control. The recently-developed Arduino development platform includes an inexpensive hardware development board hosting an eight-bit ATMEL AT...
