This book constitutes refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on New Trends in Information and Communications Technology Applications, NTICT 2021, held in Baghdad, Iraq, in November 2021. The 13 full papers presented were thoroughly reviewed and selected from 52 qualified submissions. The volume presents the latest research results in such areas as network protocols, overlay and other logical network structures, wireless access networks, computer vision, machine learning, artificial Intelligence, data mining, control methods.
This book presents fascinating, state-of-the-art research findings in the field of signal and image processing. It includes conference papers covering a wide range of signal processing applications involving filtering, encoding, classification, segmentation, clustering, feature extraction, denoising, watermarking, object recognition, reconstruction and fractal analysis. It addresses various types of signals, such as image, video, speech, non-speech audio, handwritten text, geometric diagram, ECG and EMG signals; MRI, PET and CT scan images; THz signals; solar wind speed signals (SWS); and photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals, and demonstrates how new paradigms of intelligent computing, like quantum computing, can be applied to process and analyze signals precisely and effectively. The book also discusses applications of hybrid methods, algorithms and image filters, which are proving to be better than the individual techniques or algorithms.
What if there was a book all about the world of ophthalmology? What if there was a book that covers clinical information, history, sports, and the arts—and all are related to eye disease? What if you only needed to spend 10 minutes a day to reap the daily benefits from inside the pages of this unique book? Around the Eye in 365 Days will do all this—one page and one day at a time. Around the Eye in 365 Days by Dr. Gary Schwartz is a quick look into the fascinating world of ophthalmology. It will take you on a daily journey of facts, testimonials, history, surgical techniques, as well as the future path of the profession. Following a daily calendar format, Around the Eye in 365 Days will ...
This book introduces readers to the latest exciting advances in human motion sensing and recognition, from the theoretical development of fuzzy approaches to their applications. The topics covered include human motion recognition in 2D and 3D, hand motion analysis with contact sensors, and vision-based view-invariant motion recognition, especially from the perspective of Fuzzy Qualitative techniques. With the rapid development of technologies in microelectronics, computers, networks, and robotics over the last decade, increasing attention has been focused on human motion sensing and recognition in many emerging and active disciplines where human motions need to be automatically tracked, anal...
"This book explores the complex world of computational intelligence, which utilizes computational methodologies such as fuzzy logic systems, neural networks, and evolutionary computation for the purpose of managing and using data effectively to address complicated real-world problems"--
With the global economy still in recovery, it is more important than ever for individuals and organizations to be aware of their money and its potential for both depreciation and growth. Banking, Finance, and Accounting: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications investigates recent advances and undertakings in the financial industry to better equip all members of the world economy with the tools and insights needed to weather any shift in the economic climate. With chapters on topics ranging from investment portfolios to credit unions, this multi-volume reference source will serve as a crucial resource for managers, investors, brokers, and all others within the banking industry.
As a strategic response to cognitive and CNS impairments, BCI is a theoretical outgrowth of several generations of endogenous devices for peripheral nerves, which have as a prime goal the direct replacement of lost neural function. In these earlier applications therapeutic intervention has been premised only on the restoration of signal generating capacity where nerve transmission is largely unidirectional and temporally sequenced. It is increasingly apparent, however, that the brain not only employs a very different type of syntax from that of peripheral nerves but also structures the semantic content of motor activity, fundamentally altering the conception of BCI as a therapeutic medium. The book presented here documents this change, proposing a multi-faceted strategy in which BCI therapy can restore the loss of multi-tiered, brain based motor function.
