BOOKS with Alphabet P (Pa, Pb,Pc, Pd, Pe…... )

Overview: This edited volume addresses a subject which has been discussed inten­ sively in the computer vision community for several years. Performance characterization and evaluation of computer vision algorithms are of key importance, particularly with respect to the configuration of reliable and ro­ bust computer vision systems as well as the dissemination of reconfigurable systems in novel application domains. Although a plethora of literature on this subject is available for certain‘ areas of computer vision, the re­ search community still faces a lack of a well-grounded, generally accept

Overview: Examines proverbs as relatively autonomous texts that make up the "alphabet" of national cultures.Explores the current state-of-the-art in international paremiological research.Works with the two typeThis book examines how proverbs can carry ethnonyms and contradictory oppositions in everyday speech, and interrogates the belief that such nuances are national in nature by comparing across languages and cultures. The authors bring together linguistic terms and typologies from Slavonic, Germanic, Romance, Finno-Ugric and Somali proverbs (with their English parallels) to enrich contrasti

Overview: This book has been written for several reasons, not all of which are academic. This material was for many years the first half of a book in progress on information and ergodic theory. The intent was and is to provide a reasonably self-contained advanced treatment of measure theory, prob ability theory, and the theory of discrete time random processes with an emphasis on general alphabets and on ergodic and stationary properties of random processes that might be neither ergodic nor stationary. The intended audience was mathematically inc1ined engineering graduate students and visiting

Overview: Censored sampling arises in a life-testing experiment whenever the experimenter does not observe (either intentionally or unintentionally) the failure times of all units placed on a life-test. Inference based on censored sampling has been studied during the past 50 years by numerous authors for a wide range of lifetime distributions such as normal, exponential, gamma, Rayleigh, Weibull, extreme value, log-normal, inverse Gaussian, logistic, Laplace, and Pareto. Naturally, there are many different forms of censoring that have been discussed in the literature. In this book, we consider

Overview: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming, CP ‘96, held in Cambridge, MA, USA in August 1996..The 36 revised full papers presented in the volume were selected from over 100 submissions; also included are abstracts of 22 selected poster presentations and 3 special lectures. CP is the flagship conference series on constraint processing with a number of satellite activities; thus the volume reflects the state of the art in the field.978-3-540-61551-4978-3-540-70620-5Series ISSN 0302-9743 Ser

Overview: Is nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by the University of Tokyo.Provides the numerical methods to simulate special molecular systems.Presents an introduction to help the reader not familiar witThis book presents the latest theoretical studies giving new predictions and interpretations on the quantum correlation in molecular dynamics induced by ultrashort laser pulses. The author quantifies the amount of correlation in terms of entanglement by employing methods developed in quantum information science, in particular applied to the photoionization of a hydrogen molecule. It is a

Overview: Includes comprehensive coverage of traditional and modern tools of evaluation.Provides a framework of evaluation for policies, policy analysis, policy advice and impact analysis.Draws across a variety.Evaluation in recent decades has evolved from a tool for project appraisals to a more widely used framework for public decision-making and operational management. Most evaluation books are focused on traditional tools of analysis such as cost-effectiveness and cost-benefit analysis to the neglect of modern tools such as multi-criteria evaluation, social marginal cost of funds analysis,

Overview: Die Programmiersprache Logo kann auf eine vergleichsweise lange Tradition zurückblicken. Seit ihrer Definition durch Seymour Pa­ pert in den Jahren 1967 und 1968 wurde sie in verschiedenen Ver­ sionen auf diversen Rechnern implementiert. Inzwischen stehen auch leistungsfähige Logo-Systeme für viele Micro- und Personal­ Computer zur Verfügung. Damit verbunden hat sich der Kreis der Logo-Benutzer in den letzten Jahren erheblich ausgeweitet. Logo ist vor allem eine Sprache für "Lernende". Mögen es nun auf der einen Seite des Spektrums Kinder sein, die ihre ersten Ver­ suche auf dem Rech

Overview: Includes reaction mechanisms.Exclusively features multicomponent reactions.Focuses on the green chemistry aspects of multicomponent reactionsThis book emphasizes the atom economy aspect of multicomponent reactions. It describes how this methodology has been applied to several named reactions. Among the “twelve principles of green chemistry”, atom economy addresses ‘synthetic efficiency’. A multicomponent reaction can be defined as an energy, cost, and time efficient method for organic synthesis. Instead of making one or two bonds in a chemical transformation, multicomponent reactions
