This informative publication collects neural network paradigms and reports on their promising new applications. World-renowned experts discuss the use of neural networks in pattern recognition, color induction, classification, cluster detection, and more. Engineers, scientists, and researchers will ..
While Dynamic Programming (DP) has helped solve control problems involving dynamic systems, its value was limited by algorithms that lacked practical scale-up capacity. In recent years, developments in Reinforcement Learning (RL), DP's model-free counterpart, has changed this. Focusing on continuous..

Although much literature exists on the subject of RSA and public-key cryptography, there was no single source that compiled recent developments in the area. This book provides a rigorous and detailed treatment of public-key cryptography (PKC), from RSA, the first public key system devised in 1978, t..
This reference provides a through analysis of sliding mode control principles, their application to power converters, and the practical realization of such controllers. Bridging the gap between power electronics and control theory, it presents a detailed description of the various theories, operatin..
The usefulness of strategic intelligence goes beyond military settings, as it applies toward improving the strategic decision making process of any organization. This volume demonstrates how executives can best use internal and external information toward making better decisions. Divided into two ma..
Sums of Squares of Integers is the first book to combine elementary methods with analytic methods of modular functions to study the representation of integers as sums of squares. It is the first to explain how to compute the number of representations of an integer n as the sum of s squares for any s..
This book, through an in-depth and multidisciplinary review, defines the makeup of the unconscious and conscious part of the mind and its integrated patterns. The author describes how designing the logic that approximates human thinking can be produced and implemented as computer hardware...
