This book provides an extensive review of three interrelated issues: land fragmentation, land consolidation, and land reallocation, and it presents in detail the theoretical background, design, development and application of a prototype integrated planning and decision support system for land consolidation. The system integrates geographic information systems (GIS) and artificial intelligence techniques including expert systems (ES) and genetic algorithms (GAs) with multi-criteria decision methods (MCDM), both multi-attribute (MADM) and multi-objective (MODM). The system is based on four...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Computer Vision and Graphic, ICCVG 2016, held in Warsaw, Poland, in September 2016. The 68 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. They show various opportunities for valuable research at the border of applied information sciences, agribusiness, veterinary medicine and the broadly understood domains of biology and economy.

This book treats three planning problems arising in public railway transportation planning: line planning, timetabling, and delay management, with the objective to minimize passengers' travel time. While many optimization approaches simplify these problems by assuming that passengers' route choice is independent of the solution, this book focuses on models which take into account that passengers will adapt their travel route to the implemented planning solution. That is, a planning solution and passengers' routes are determined and evaluated simultaneously.

This work is technically...

Artificial Intelligence is the most exciting technology of the century, and Deep Learning is, quite literally, the "brain" behind the world's smartest Artificial Intelligence systems out there.

Grokking Deep Learning is the perfect place to begin the deep learning journey. Rather than just learning the "black box" API of some library or framework, readers will actually understand how to build these algorithms completely from scratch.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.

The three-volume set LNCS 9913, LNCS 9914, and LNCS 9915 comprises the refereed proceedings of the Workshops that took place in conjunction with the 14th European Conference on Computer Vision, ECCV 2016, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in October 2016.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th Chinese Conference on Biometric Recognition, CCBR 2016, held in Chengdu, China, in October 2016.

The 84 revised full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 138 submissions. The papers focus on Face Recognition and Analysis; Fingerprint, Palm-print and Vascular Biometrics; Iris and Ocular Biometrics; Behavioral Biometrics; Affective Computing; Feature Extraction and Classification Theory; Anti-Spoofing and Privacy; Surveillance; and DNA and Emerging Biometrics.

Mathematical algorithms are a fundamental component of Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems. This book provides a bridge between algebraic geometry and geometric modelling algorithms, formulated within a computer science framework.

Apart from the algebraic geometry topics covered, the entire book is based on the unifying concept of using algebraic techniques - properly specialized to solve geometric problems - to seriously improve accuracy, robustness and efficiency of CAD-systems. It provides new approaches as well as industrial applications to deform surfaces...

This book presents a gradual path toward "educating" readers in understanding how Control Systems truly operate and in recognizing, simulating and improving them in all fields of activity. Starting from the hypothesis that knowledge of Control Systems is not only a technical fact but also represents a discipline - that is, "A discipline is a developmental path for acquiring certain skills or competencies. (...) To practice a discipline is to be a lifelong learner. You "never arrive"; you spend your life mastering disciplines." (Senge, 2006, p. 10) - Piero Mella has set the objective of...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Data Privacy Management, DPM 2016 and the 5th International Workshop on Quantitative Aspects in Security Assurance, QASA 2016, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece, in September 2016. 9 full papers and 4 short papers out of 24 submissions are included in the DPM 2016 Workshop. They are organized around areas related to the management of privacy-sensitive informations, such as translation of high-level business goals into system-level privacy policies; administration of sensitive identifiers; data integration...

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 42nd International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science, WG 2016, held in Istanbul, Turkey, in June 2016.
The 25 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 74 submissions.The WG conferences aim to connect theory and practice by demonstrating how graph-theoretic concepts can be applied to various areas of computer science and by extracting new graph problems from applications. Their goal is to present new research results and to identify and explore directions of future research....
