The purpose of this book is to help anyone involved in small-scale geophys- ical surveys. It is not a textbook in the traditional sense, in that it is designed for use in the field and concerns itself with practical matters – with the- ory taking second place. Where theory determines field practice ...

The purpose of this book is to present detailed fundamental information on a global positioning system (GPS) receiver. Although GPS receivers are popu- larly used in every-day life, their operation principles cannot be easily found in one book. Most other types of receivers process the input signals ...

This book is intended for researchers, teachers, and students willing to ex- plore conceptual bridges between the fields of Automatic Control and Power Electronics. The need to bring the two disciplines closer has been felt, for many years, both by Power Electronics specialists and by Automatic Cont ...

There exist two essentially different approaches to the study of dynamical systems, based on the following distinction: time-continuous nonlinear differential equations ⇋ time-discrete maps One approach starts from time-continuous differential equations and leads to time-discrete maps, which are ob ...

This book  is  an outgrowth of a course developed at Stanford University over the past  five  years. It  is  suitable as a self-contained textbook for second-level undergraduates  or  for first-level graduate students in almost every field that employs quantit ...

n recent years, there have been many books published on power system optimization. Most of these books do not cover applications of artifi cial intelligence based methods. Moreover, with the recent increase of artifi cial intelligence applications in various fi elds, it is becoming a new trend in so ...

A kinematically redundant manipulator is a serial robotic arm that has more independently driven joints than are necessary to define the desired pose (position and orientation) of its end-effector. With this definition, any planar manipulator (a manipulator whose end-effector motion is restrained in ...

Pattern recognition has its origins in engineering, whereas machine learning grew out of computer science. However, these activities can be viewed as two facets of the same field, and together they have undergone substantial development over the past ten years. In particular, Bayesian methods have g ...

Recent work has shown that convolutional networks can be substantially deeper, more accurate, and efficient to train if they contain shorter connections between layers close to the input and those close to the output. In this paper, we embrace this observation and introduce the Dense Convo- lutional ...

Current field forecast verification measures are inadequate, primarily because they compress the comparison between two complex spatial field processes into one number. Discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) applied to analysis and contemporaneous forecast fields prove to be an insightful approach to ve ...
