Book Description
Online applications have been gaining wide acceptance among the general public. Companies like Amazon, Google, Yahoo! and NetFlicks have been doing extremely well over the last few years largely because of people becoming more comfortable and trusting of the Internet. The increasing acceptance of online products makes it increasingly important to address some of the scientific techniques involved in developing efficient 3D online systems.The topics discussed in this book broadly cover four categories: networking issues in online multimedia; joint texture-mesh simplification and view independent transmission; view dependent transmission and server-side rendering; content and background creation; and creating simple online games.

Proceedings. First International Symposium on 3D Data Processing Visualization and Transmission
2013 6th International Conference on BioMedical Engineering and Informatics (BMEI 2013)
Author:
Publisher: DEStech Publications, Inc
ISBN: 1605951633
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 1269
Book Description
SPBEI 2013 aims to be an excellent platform to facilitate international exchange of state-ofthe- art research and practice in image, video, and signal processing, biomedical engineering, informatics, and their cross-intersection to catalyze innovative research ideas and to dissimilate new scientific discoveries. The nature of the research demands collaboration in medicine, biology, physics, engineering, computer science, and statistics; and SPBEI attempts to expedite and strengthen the exploration and systemization of interdisciplinary knowledge. This year, the conference received a large number of submissions around the globe, and all papers have been rigorously reviewed by a large number of peer reviewers who have spent tremendous amount of time and effort on the evaluations, with each paper receiving three to six reviews. We would like to thank all those who submitted papers for considerations, and we extend our sincere gratitude to all those who devoted their time and effort professionally to ensuring the high standards of the technical program, including the authors, committee members, peer reviewers, and session chairs.

Handbook of Mathematical Models and Algorithms in Computer Vision and Imaging
Author: Ke Chen
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030986616
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 1981
Book Description
This handbook gathers together the state of the art on mathematical models and algorithms for imaging and vision. Its emphasis lies on rigorous mathematical methods, which represent the optimal solutions to a class of imaging and vision problems, and on effective algorithms, which are necessary for the methods to be translated to practical use in various applications. Viewing discrete images as data sampled from functional surfaces enables the use of advanced tools from calculus, functions and calculus of variations, and nonlinear optimization, and provides the basis of high-resolution imaging through geometry and variational models. Besides, optimization naturally connects traditional model-driven approaches to the emerging data-driven approaches of machine and deep learning. No other framework can provide comparable accuracy and precision to imaging and vision. Written by leading researchers in imaging and vision, the chapters in this handbook all start with gentle introductions, which make this work accessible to graduate students. For newcomers to the field, the book provides a comprehensive and fast-track introduction to the content, to save time and get on with tackling new and emerging challenges. For researchers, exposure to the state of the art of research works leads to an overall view of the entire field so as to guide new research directions and avoid pitfalls in moving the field forward and looking into the next decades of imaging and information services. This work can greatly benefit graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in imaging and vision; applied mathematicians; medical imagers; engineers; and computer scientists.

Introduction to Autonomous Robots
Author: Nikolaus Correll
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262047551
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
A comprehensive introduction to the field of autonomous robotics aimed at upper-level undergraduates and offering additional online resources. Textbooks that provide a broad algorithmic perspective on the mechanics and dynamics of robots almost unfailingly serve students at the graduate level. Introduction to Autonomous Robots offers a much-needed resource for teaching third- and fourth-year undergraduates the computational fundamentals behind the design and control of autonomous robots. The authors use a class-tested and accessible approach to present progressive, step-by-step development concepts, alongside a wide range of real-world examples and fundamental concepts in mechanisms, sensing and actuation, computation, and uncertainty. Throughout, the authors balance the impact of hardware (mechanism, sensor, actuator) and software (algorithms) in teaching robot autonomy. Features: Rigorous and tested in the classroom Written for engineering and computer science undergraduates with a sophomore-level understanding of linear algebra, probability theory, trigonometry, and statistics QR codes in the text guide readers to online lecture videos and animations Topics include: basic concepts in robotic mechanisms like locomotion and grasping, plus the resulting forces; operation principles of sensors and actuators; basic algorithms for vision and feature detection; an introduction to artificial neural networks, including convolutional and recurrent variants Extensive appendices focus on project-based curricula, pertinent areas of mathematics, backpropagation, writing a research paper, and other topics A growing library of exercises in an open-source, platform-independent simulation (Webots)

“And in Length of Days Understanding” (Job 12:12)
Author: Erez Ben-Yosef
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031273303
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1956
Book Description
This two-volume book presents cutting-edge archaeological research, primarily as practiced in the Eastern Mediterranean region. These volumes’ key foci are inspired by the work of Thomas E. Levy. Volume 1 provides an in-depth look at new archaeological research in the southern Levant (primarily in modern Israel and Jordan) inspired by Levy’s commitment to understanding social, political, and economic processes in a long-term or “deep time” perspective. Volume 2 focuses on new research in several key areas of 21st century anthropological archaeology and archaeological science. Volume 1 is organized around two major themes: 1) the later prehistory of the southern Levant, or the Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Bronze Age, and 2) new research in biblical archaeology, or the historical archaeology of the Iron Age. Each section contains a combination of new perspectives on key debates and studies introducing new research questions and directions. Volume 2 is organized around five major themes: 1) the archaeology of the Faynan copper ore district of southern Jordan, a key region for archaeometallurgical research in West Asia where Levy conducted field research for over a decade, 2) new research in archaeometallurgy beyond the Faynan region, 3) marine and maritime archaeology, focusing on issues of trade and environmental change, 4) cyber-archaeology, an important 21st century field Levy conceived as “the marriage of archaeology, engineering, computer science, and the natural sciences,” and 5) key issues in anthropological archaeological theory. In addition to presenting the reader with an up-to-date view of research in each of these areas, the volume also has chapters exploring the connections between these themes, e.g. the maritime trade of metals and cyber-/digital archaeological approaches to metallurgy. The work contains contributions from both up-and-coming early career researchers and key established figures in their fields. This book is an essential reference for archaeologists and scholars in related disciplines working in the southern Levant and the Eastern Mediterranean.
