| Machines capable of automatic pattern recognition have many fascinating uses in science & engineering as well as in our daily lives. Algorithms for supervised classification, where one infers a decision boundary from a set of training examples, are at the core of this capability.
This book takes a close view of data complexity & its role in shaping the theories & techniques in different disciplines & asks:
- What is missing from current classification techniques?
- When the automatic classifiers are not perfect, is it a deficiency of the algorithms by design, or is it a difficulty intrinsic to the classification task?
- How do we know whether we have exploited to the fullest extent the knowledge embedded in the training data?
Uunique in its comprehensive coverage & multidisciplinary approach from various methodological & practical perspectives, researchers & practitioners will find this book an insightful reference to learn about current available techniques as well as application areas. |

User-Centered Agile Methods (Synthesis Lectures on Human-Centered Informatics)
Agile methods have transformed how developers think about organizing the development of a
project. Rather than months (or years) of development, followed by months of field test leading
up to a release, agile methods organize development into short iterations with continuous testing
and a flexible release date. The agile approach... | | Image Recognition and Classification (Optical Engineering, 78)This book presents important recent advances in sensors, image processing algorithms, and systems for image recognition and classification with diverse applications in military, aerospace, security, image tracking, radar, biomedical, and intelligent transportation.
