A basic problem in computer vision is to understand the structure of a real world scene given several images of it. Techniques for solving this problem are taken from projective geometry and photogrammetry. Here, the authors cover the geometric principles and their algebraic representation in terms of camera projection matrices, the fundamental matrix and the trifocal tensor. The theory and methods of computation of these entities are discussed with real examples, as is their use in the reconstruction of scenes from multiple images. The new edition features an extended introduction covering the key ideas in the book (which itself has been updated with additional examples and appendices) and significant new results which have appeared since the first edition. Comprehensive background material is provided, so readers familiar with linear algebra and basic numerical methods can understand the projective geometry and estimation algorithms presented, and implement the algorithms directly fr

Unlock Pathway Codes, Reshape Cancer FightProfessor BENJAMIN YAT-MING YUNG, former Professor in the Department of Pharmacology at Chang Gung University College of Medicine, draws on forty years of accumulated research on NPM1/B23 to present the world's first network model of cancer drug resistance and recurrence pathways.This book breaks free from traditional therapy frameworks, delving into the four major characteristics of cancer to reveal the core pathogenesis of nucleolar imbalance and analyze the regulatory mechanisms of seven key pathway categories. The breakthrough QGCT® deconstructs personalized dysregulated pathways for patients, while providing pathway-based supplement applications and clinical solutions.More than just a popular science introduction to cancer knowledge, it offers patients new directions in precision treatment and provides scientific prevention strategies for health-conscious individuals. By integrating cutting-edge science with personalized care, it transform

Probabilistic numerical computation formalises the connection between machine learning and applied mathematics. Numerical algorithms approximate intractable quantities from computable ones. They estimate integrals from evaluations of the integrand, or the path of a dynamical system described by differential equations from evaluations of the vector field. In other words, they infer a latent quantity from data. This book shows that it is thus formally possible to think of computational routines as learning machines, and to use the notion of Bayesian inference to build more flexible, efficient, or customised algorithms for computation. The text caters for Masters' and PhD students, as well as postgraduate researchers in artificial intelligence, computer science, statistics, and applied mathematics. Extensive background material is provided along with a wealth of figures, worked examples, and exercises (with solutions) to develop intuition.
