Inverse Projection is a method for estimating accurate demographic indicators of a population where vital registration data are available, but population censuses are lacking or unreliable. The book o
Well founded and reliable emission data are necessary to implement strategies to investigate and control air pollution caused by the transport and chemical transformation of air pollutants. This book
Organic Reaction Mechanisms shows readers how to interpret the experimental data obtained from an organic reaction, and specifically how an organic reaction mechanism can be considered or rejected bas
With their images practically ubiquitious in the daily media, weather radar systems provide data not only for understanding weather systems and improving forecasts (especially critical for severe weat
Now available in paperback, this book introduces basic concepts and methods useful in the analysis and modeling of multivariate time series data. It concentrates on the time-domain analysis of multiva
Statistical Tools for Nonlinear Regression presents methods for analyzing data. It has been expanded to include binomial, multinomial and Poisson non-linear models. The examples are analyzed with the
In this era of heterogeneous and distributed data sources, ranging from semistructured documents to knowledge about coordination processes or workflows, logic provides a rich set of tools and techniqu
The setting of limit values for environmental noxae is essentially based on measurements and data from single exposures. To an increasing degree, however, there are demands also to consider combined e
Sample data alone never suffice to draw conclusions about populations. Inference always requires assumptions about the population and sampling process. Statistical theory has revealed much about how s
In the mid-1990s new treatment options introduced a new era of AIDS. This book is a sophisticated study of the shaping of this new era. Well informed by ethnographic as well as statistical data, it re
This excellently written monograph provides – for the first time ever - a thorough introduction and systematic overview of all aspects of intelligent data processing on the Web. It presents both the c
The German research satellite CHAMP had been launched in summer 2000. Its modern instruments and near Earth orbit allow for the first time to collect data of the gravitational and magnetic fields and
In this newly revised, expanded and updated edition, the authors have provided a definitive resource about and for women physicians. From statistical data regarding practicing women physicians in the
Due to the popularity of knowledge discovery and data mining, in practice as well as among academic and corporate R&D professionals, association rule mining is receiving increasing attention.The a
An authoritative and comprehensive guide to the Rijndael algorithm and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is expected to gradually replace the present Data Encryption Standard (DES) as the most w
This book will equip graduate students in the mathematical sciences to understand and model the epidemiological and experimental data encountered in genetics research. This second edition expands the
Specialists in economics and agriculture explain how recent theories and methods are being and can be used to measure agricultural productivity in the US, and describe and utilize new data sets recent
Getting the most out of neural networks and related data modelling techniques is the purpose of this book. The text, with the accompanying Netlab toolbox, provides all the necessary tools and knowledg
This book will open up a large body of data previously inaccessible or unknown to non-francophone geomorphologists, geologists and geographers. It provides an insight into the regional geomorphology o
Increasing possibilities of computer-aided data processing have caused a new revival of optical techniques in many areas of mechanical and chemical engi- neering. Optical methods have a long tradition
The book is aimed at applied statisticians, graduate students of statistics, and students and researchers with a strong interest in statistics and data analysis. This second edition is extensively rev
These volumes cover non-linear filtering (prediction and smoothing) theory and its applications to the problem of optimal estimation, control with incomplete data, information theory, and sequential t
The book deals with two central themes: data modeling and management for 3D objects during different time states and the opening of geoinformation systems to a new generation of component-based GIS. T
This book focuses on the methodology and analysis of state and local population projections. It describes the most commonly used data sources and application techniques within each of three classes
