This book carries forward recent work on visual patterns and structures in digital images and introduces a near set-based a topology of digital images. Visual patterns arise ...

This book teaches financial engineering in an innovative way by providing tools and a point of view to quickly and easily solve real, front-office problems. Projects and ...

Background: Estimated effects vary across studies, partly because of random sampling error and partly because of heterogeneity. In meta-analysis, the fraction of variance ...

In this talk we are going to discuss a particular style of Wolfram Language programming that allows the application of the Object-oriented paradigm (to a point). The approach ...

Background and objective: Binary response models are used in many real applications. For these models the Fisher information matrix (FIM) is proportional to the FIM of a ...

The book investigates the misapplication of conventional statistical techniques to fat tailed distributions and looks for remedies, when possible. Switching from thin tailed ...

This introductory text lays the foundation for understanding thin-film morphology and the response characteristics of optical sculptured thin film (STF) devices, enabling ...

"By the year 2000, American colleges and universities will be lean and mean, service oriented and science minded, multicultural and increasingly diverse---if they intend to ...

In Part I of this paper, we started from a dipole array model of elastic light scattering, and found the longwave asymptotic formulas for all 16 elements of the orientation ...

The broad categories of computational physics are Simulation, Visualisation and Modelling. At a finer scale, computational physics embraces a wide range of areas including ...
