Abstract

Mathematik in Aktion im Zentrum der technologischen Forschung und Entwicklung. In diesem Buch geht es um die Rolle der Mathematik in zahlreichen technologischen Anwendungen. Die ausgewählten Anwendungen sind überwiegend modern und geben den Studenten einen Einblick in die Mathematik in Aktion. Das Buch ist hauptsächlich für Studenten der mittleren und höheren Studienjahre konzipiert, da eine gewisse mathematische Reife erforderlich ist. Der Text eignet sich auch für angehende Gymnasiallehrer. Es werden jedoch nur Grundkenntnisse der linearen Algebra, der Wahrscheinlichkeitstheorie, der euklidischen Geometrie und der Funktionen mehrerer Variabler vorausgesetzt. Das Buch behandelt noch viele weitere Themen, aber alle notwendigen mathematischen Werkzeuge (Gruppentheorie, endliche Körper usw.) werden auf elementare Weise eingeführt und in die Darstellung des betreffenden Themas eingearbeitet. Zu den ausgewählten Themen gehören: Kryptografie mit öffentlichem Schlüssel, fehlerkorrigierende Codes, das Global Positioning System (GPS) und Kartografie, Bildkompression mit Fraktalen und JPEG-Format, digitalisierte Musikwiedergabe, Roboterbewegung, DNA-Computing, Googles PageRank-Algorithmus, Sparen und Kredite, Gammastrahlenchirurgie und Zufallszahlengeneratoren. Die Kapitel können unabhängig voneinander behandelt werden. Einige Kapitel untergliedern sich in einen elementaren Teil und einen fortgeschrittenen Teil. An alle Kapitel schließen sich Übungsaufgaben an. Das Buch stellt einige Aspekte der Mathematik vor, die nicht Bestandteil einer typischen Mathematikausbildung sind: die Leistungsstärke der mathematischen Werkzeuge außerhalb der reinen Mathematik, die Rolle der Modellbildung sowie die Wechselwirkung zwischen technologischen und mathematischen Entwicklungen. Der Text präsentiert die Mathematik als elegantes wissenschaftliches Gebiet, dessen zahlreiche Anwendungen dazu beigetragen haben, unser Verständnis der uns umgebenden Welt zu formen und zu vertiefen.

Abstract

Our knowledge of the surrounding world is obtained by our senses, of which vision is the most important for the information it can provide. In artificial systems, the field of Computer Vision aims to identify physical objects and scenes from captured images, to make useful decisions. This involves the processing and analysis of images, video data, and multi-dimensional data like medical scans. In this context, motion provides a stimulus for detecting objects in movement within the observed scene. Moreover, motion allows other characteristics to be obtained, such as object shape, speed or trajectory, which are meaningful for detection and recognition. However, the motion observable in a visual input can be due to different factors: movement of the imaged objects, movement of the observer, motion of the light sources, or a combination of these. This work focuses on motion detection from images captured by perspective and fisheye still cameras, proposing a complete sensor-independent visual system that provides robust target motion detection. First, the way sensors obtain images is studied, allowing a spatial analysis of motion to be carried out. Then, a novel background maintenance approach for robust target motion detection is implemented. Two different situations are considered: a fixed camera observing a constant background where objects are moving; and a still camera observing objects in movement against a dynamic background. This permits the development of a surveillance mechanism that removes the constraint of observing a scene free of foreground elements to obtain a reliable background model, since this situation cannot be guaranteed when operating in an unknown environment. Other problems are also addressed for the successful handling of changes in illumination, the distinction between foreground and background elements, and non-uniform vacillating backgrounds.

Abstract

The “digital revolution” of the last two decades has pervaded innumerable aspects of our daily lives and changed our planet irreversibly. The shift from analog to digital broadcasting has facilitated a seemingly infinite variety of new applications—audience interactivity being but one example. The greater efficiency and compression of digital media have endowed broadcasters with a “digital dividend” of spare transmission capacity over and above the requirements of terrestrial broadcasting. The question is, who will use it, and how? Comparing the European experience with that of broadcasters elsewhere in the world, the author sketches the current status of international frequency management, quantifies the value of the “dividend” itself, analyzes the details of the analog-to-digital switchovers already completed, and posits what the future holds for the sector. As we grapple with new devices, inconceivable a mere generation ago, that allow us to access digital media instantly, anywhere and at any time of day, this book is a potent reminder that what we have witnessed so far may be just the first wavering steps along a road whose destination we can only guess at.

Abstract

The data deluge problem is increasing. Every day the results of scientific experiments, monitoring instruments, medical analysis, and social networks add petabytes to the world’s information. Many future experiments will generate data that will be substantially more than has been collected throughout history. How can we effectively translate this into meaningful information, particularly if there is a time critical element to the data? Although Moore’s law results in an ever-decreasing cost of processing, storage, and transmission – so that the data can be stored and transmitted – it does not necessarily follow that the data can be processed effectively. Visual analytics seeks to facilitate analytical reasoning supported by interactive visual interfaces in order to integrate the human into the analysis process. Expanding the Frontiers of Visual Analytics and Visualization contains international contributions by leading researchers from within the field. Dedicated to the memory of Jim Thomas, the book begins with the dynamics of evolving a vision based on some of the principles that Jim and colleagues established and in which Jim’s leadership was evident. This is followed by chapters in the areas of visual analytics, visualization, interaction, modelling, architecture, and virtual reality, before concluding with the key area of technology transfer to industry. Visual analytics and visualization bring together the areas of computer science, information visualization, cognitive and perceptual sciences, interactive design, graphic design, and social sciences.

Abstract

Matrix transforms are ubiquitous within the world of computer graphics, where they have become an invaluable tool in a programmer’s toolkit for solving everything from 2D image scaling to 3D rotation about an arbitrary axis. Virtually every software system and hardware graphics processor uses matrices to undertake operations such as scaling, translation, reflection and rotation. Nevertheless, for some newcomers to the world of computer games and animation, matrix notation can appear obscure and challenging. Matrices and determinants were originally used to solve groups of simultaneous linear equations, and were subsequently embraced by the computer graphics community to describe the geometric operations for manipulating two- and three-dimensional structures. Consequently, to place matrix notation within an historical context, the author provides readers with some useful background to their development, alongside determinants. Although it is assumed that the reader is familiar with everyday algebra and the solution of simultaneous linear equations, Matrix Transforms for Computer Games and Animation does not expect any prior knowledge of matrix notation. It includes chapters on matrix notation, determinants, matrices, 2D transforms, 3D transforms and quaternions, and includes many worked examples to illustrate their practical use.
