Understanding Vision explains the computational principles and models of biological visual processing, and in particular, of primate vision.
From the Foreword:"' a seminal text covering the simulation design and analysis of a broad variety of systems using two of the most modern software packages available today. ' particularly adept [at] enabling students new to the field to gain a thorough understanding of the basi…
This book provides a representative selection of the most relevant, innovative, and useful mathematical methods and models applied to the analysis and characterization of composites and their behaviour on micro-, meso-, and macroscale. It establishes the fundamentals for meaning…
Computational design has become widely accepted into mainstream architecture, but this is the first book to advocate applying it to create adaptable masterplans for rapid urban growth, urban heterogeneity, through computational urbanism. Practitioners and researchers here discus…
The book presents all the computational techniques and tools needed to start doing scientific research using computer simulations. A reader will have all the necessary basic background after working through this book, including program design, programming in C, fundamental algor…
