My Date with Editors

The book unfolds my professional performance. I have revealed my best and the worst both. It is a saga of a journalist though many would doubt whether work as proof -reader counts for journalism as it was not considered the mainstream of journalism, rather a stigma attached with the likes of me for 16 years in a row. Then there is reporting stint for 20 years which had its pitfalls and glory. Expressing views on contemporary issues has been changeable because I hold opinion and opinion does not hold me. Non-payment to my contribution to periodicals as free-lance journalist may sound grumbling, but it is pain of a pen- pusher who at last surmises that one cannot survive with free-lancing in B...

For more than three centuries when India was controlled and exploited by the British Empire, its people were not considered fit to have a say in the running of their own country, let alone to be given any political power. Around the turn of the 19th century, four men helped to change that forever: Dadabhai Naoroji, Mancherjee Bhownaggree, Shapurji Saklatvala and Satyendra Sinha. They were the first four Indians to achieve Parliamentary office in the United Kingdom, three of them as MPs, all for different parties, the last as a Cabinet Minister. While you could scarcely find four more contrasting personalities, the four Indian pioneers had several vital points in common: all four loved and fought for their country, all four were highly motivated and fiercely intelligent, and all four shared a passion for justice and equity. Between them they earned India, and Indians, a long-overdue respect in the West, and opened the door for many of their countrymen to be welcomed into the ranks of government in their wake. This book tells their stories. Published by Mereo Books.

Wavelet Transform and Some of Its Real-World Applications

The book contains six chapters. The use of the progressive regressive strategy for biometrical authentication through the use of human gait and face images was investigated. A new lossy image compression technique that uses singular value decomposition and wavelet difference reduction technique was proposed. The best wavelet packet based selection algorithm and its application in image denoising was discussed. The scaling factor threshold estimator in different color models using a discrete wavelet transform for steganographic algorithms was presented. The extraction of features appearing in current signal using wavelet analysis when there is rotor fault of eccentricity and broken rotor bar was debated. The application of the empirical wavelet transform for seismic anomalies detection in ultralow-frequency geomagnetic signals was illustrated.

Discrete Wavelet Transforms

The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) algorithms have a firm position in processing of signals in several areas of research and industry. As DWT provides both octave-scale frequency and spatial timing of the analyzed signal, it is constantly used to solve and treat more and more advanced problems. The present book: Discrete Wavelet Transforms - Biomedical Applications reviews the recent progress in discrete wavelet transform algorithms and applications. The book reviews the recent progress in DWT algorithms for biomedical applications. The book covers a wide range of architectures (e.g. lifting, shift invariance, multi-scale analysis) for constructing DWTs. The book chapters are organized int...

  • Publisher: Elsevier

The first part of the book provides a pedagogical introduction to the physics of complex systems driven far from equilibrium. In this part we discuss the basic concepts and theoretical techniques which are commonly used to study classical stochastic transport in systems of interacting driven particles. The analytical techniques include mean-field theories, matrix product ansatz, renormalization group, etc. and the numerical methods are mostly based on computer simulations. In the second part of the book these concepts and techniques are applied not only to vehicular traffic but also to transport and traffic-like phenomena in living systems ranging from collective movements of social insects ...

Digital images have several benefits, such as faster and inexpensive processing cost, easy storage and communication, immediate quality assessment, multiple copying while preserving quality, swift and economical reproduction, and adaptable manipulation. Digital medical images play a vital role in everyday life. Medical imaging is the process of producing visible images of inner structures of the body for scientific and medical study and treatment as well as a view of the function of interior tissues. This process pursues disorder identification and management. Medical imaging in 2D and 3D includes many techniques and operations such as image gaining, storage, presentation, and communication....
