  • Two- and Three-Dimensional Patterns of the Face

    by Peter W. Hallinan, Gaile Gordon, A. L. Yuille, Peter Giblin, David Mumford ...
    The human face is perhaps the most familiar and easily recognized object in the world, yet both its three-dimensional shape and its two-dimensional images are complex and hard to characterize. This book develops the vocabulary of ridges and parabolic curves, of illumination eigenfaces and elastic warpings for describing the perceptually salient fea ... Read more

  • Local Features in Natural Images via Singularity Theory

    by James Damon, Peter Giblin, Gareth Haslinger ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This monograph considers a basic problem in the computer analysis of natural images, which are images of scenes involving multiple objects that are obtained by a camera lens or a viewer’s eye. The goal is to detect geometric features of objects in the image and to separate regions of the objects with distinct visual properties. When the scene is illuminated by a single principal light source, we ... Read more

  • Analysis

    by Ekkehard Kopp ...
    Series series Modular Mathematics Series
    Building on the basic concepts through a careful discussion of covalence, (while adhering resolutely to sequences where possible), the main part of the book concerns the central topics of continuity, differentiation and integration of real functions. Throughout, the historical context in which the subject was developed is highlighted and particular attention is paid to showing how precision allows ... Read more

  • Numerical Analysis

    by Larkin Ridgway Scott ...
    Computational science is fundamentally changing how technological questions are addressed. The design of aircraft, automobiles, and even racing sailboats is now done by computational simulation. The mathematical foundation of this new approach is numerical analysis, which studies algorithms for computing expressions defined with real numbers. Emphasizing the theory behind the computation, this ... Read more

  • Topics in Physical Mathematics

    by Kishore Marathe ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    As many readers will know, the 20th century was a time when the fields of mathematics and the sciences were seen as two separate entities. Caused by the rapid growth of the physical sciences and an increasing abstraction in mathematical research, each party, physicists and mathematicians alike, suffered a misconception; not only of the opposition’s theoretical underpinning, but of how the two ...

  • Numerical Analysis for Engineers and Scientists

    by G. Miller ...
    Striking a balance between theory and practice, this graduate-level text is perfect for students in the applied sciences. The author provides a clear introduction to the classical methods, how they work and why they sometimes fail. Crucially, he also demonstrates how these simple and classical techniques can be combined to address difficult problems. Many worked examples and sample programs are ... Read more

  • Numerical Models for Differential Problems

    by Alfio Quarteroni ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    In this text, we introduce the basic concepts for the numerical modelling of partial differential equations. We consider the classical elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic linear equations, but also the diffusion, transport, and Navier-Stokes equations, as well as equations representing conservation laws, saddle-point problems and optimal control problems. Furthermore, we provide numerous physical ... Read more
