Springer Nature Switzerland AG Mechanistic Data Science for STEM Education and
Book SynopsisThis book introduces Mechanistic Data Science (MDS) as a structured methodology for combining data science tools with mathematical scientific principles (i.e., “mechanistic” principles) to solve intractable problems. Traditional data science methodologies require copious quantities of data to show a reliable pattern, but the amount of required data can be greatly reduced by considering the mathematical science principles. MDS is presented here in six easy-to-follow modules: 1) Multimodal data generation and collection, 2) extraction of mechanistic features, 3) knowledge-driven dimension reduction, 4) reduced order surrogate models, 5) deep learning for regression and classification, and 6) system and design. These data science and mechanistic analysis steps are presented in an intuitive manner that emphasizes practical concepts for solving engineering problems as well as real-life problems. This book is written in a spectral style and is ideal as an entry level textbook for engineering and data science undergraduate and graduate students, practicing scientists and engineers, as well as STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) high school students and teachers.Table of Contents1-Introduction to Mechanistic Data Science 2-Multimodal Data Generation and Collection 3-Optimization and Regression 4-Extraction of Mechanistic Features 5-Knowledge-Driven Dimension Reduction and Reduced Order Surrogate Models 6-Deep Learning for Regression and Classification 7-System and Design

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Synchronization of Multi-Agent Systems in the
Book SynopsisThis monograph explores the synchronization of large-scale, multi-agent dynamical systems in the presence of disturbances, delays, and time-varying networks. Drawing upon their extensive work in this area, the authors provide a thorough treatment of agents with higher-order dynamics, different classes of models for agents, and the underlying networks representing the agents’ actions. The high technical level of their presentation and their rigorous mathematical approach make this a timely and valuable resource that will fill a gap in the existing literature. Divided into two sections, the first part of the book focuses on state synchronization of homogeneous multi-agent systems. The authors consider state synchronization by determining control strategies for both continuous- and discrete-time systems that achieve state synchronization under both full- and partial-state coupling. The chapters that follow examine multi-agent systems with both linear and nonlinear time-varying agents, input-delays for continuous- and discrete-time systems, and communication delays for continuous-time systems. The second part of the book is dedicated to regulated output synchronization of heterogeneous multi-agent systems with linear and nonlinear agents. Both sections of the book include performance considerations in H2- and H-infinity norms in the presence of external disturbances.Research on synchronization of multi-agent systems has been growing in popularity and is highly interdisciplinary, with applications to automobile systems, aerospace systems, multiple-satellite GPS and high-resolution satellite imagery, aircraft formations, highway traffic platooning, industrial process control with multiple processes, and more. Synchronization of Multi-Agent Systems in the Presence of Disturbances and Delays will therefore be of interest to upper-level graduate students, researchers, and engineers in industry working on interconnected dynamical systems.Trade Review“This book presents a tangible overview of the theory and application of synchronization in a multi-agent system with an eye on disturbance and time delays. It is self-contained with preliminaries, theorem proofs and references. … This book is accessible to anyone studying systems and control theory with an undergraduate level of mathematics.” (Yilun Shang, Mathematical Reviews, October, 2022)Table of ContentsNotation and preliminaries.- Part I Synchronization of homogeneous systems.- Synchronization of continuous-time linear MAS.- Synchronization of discrete-time linear MAS.- Synchronization of linear MAS subject to actuator saturation.- Synchronization of continuous-time MAS with nonlinear time-varying agents.- Synchronization of continuous-time linear MAS with unknown input delay.- Synchronization of discrete-time linear MAS with unknown input delay.- Synchronization of continuous-time linear MAS with unknown communication delay.- Synchronization of discrete-time linear MAS with unknown communication delay.- Synchronization of linear MAS subject to actuator saturation and unknown input delay.- Synchronization of continuous-time linear time-varying MAS.- Synchronization of continuous-time nonlinear time-varying MAS.- H1 and H2 almost synchronization of continuous-time linear MAS.- Part II Synchronization of heterogeneous systems.- Necessary conditions for synchronization of heterogeneous MAS.- Regulated output synchronization of heterogeneous continuous-time linear MAS.- Regulated output synchronization of heterogeneous continuous-time nonlinear MAS.- Regulated output synchronization of heterogeneous continuous-time linear time-varying MAS.- Exact regulated output synchronization for heterogeneous continuous-time MAS in the presence of disturbances and measurement noise with known frequencies.- H1 almost output synchronization for heterogeneous continuous-time MAS.- H2 almost regulated output synchronization for heterogeneous continuous-time MAS.- Almost output synchronization of heterogeneous continuous-time linear MAS with passive agents.- Synchronization of heterogeneous continuous-/and discrete-time linear MAS with introspective agents.- A special coordinate basis (SCB) of linear multivariable systems.- Squaring down of general MIMO systems to invertible uniform rank systems via pre- and/or post-compensators.- Index.- References.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Fractional Dynamical Systems: Methods, Algorithms
Book SynopsisThis book presents a wide and comprehensive spectrum of issues and problems related to fractional-order dynamical systems. It is meant to be a full-fledge, comprehensive presentation of many aspects related to the broadly perceived fractional-order dynamical systems which constitute an extension of the traditional integer-order-type descriptions. This implies far-reaching consequences, both analytic and algorithmic, because—in general—properties of the traditional integer-order systems cannot be directly extended by a straightforward generalization to fractional-order systems, modeled by fractional-order differential equations involving derivatives of an non-integer order. This can be useful for describing and analyzing, for instance, anomalies in the behavior of various systems, chaotic behavior, etc. The book contains both analytic contributions with state-of-the-art and theoretical foundations, algorithmic implementation of tools and techniques, and—finally—some examples of relevant and successful practical applications.Table of ContentsFractional Dynamical Systems: State-of-the-Art.- Fractional Dynamical Systems: Mathematical Introduction.- Mixed Logical Dynamical Modeling of Discrete-time Hybrid Fractional Systems.- Fractional Variable-Order Derivative and Difference Operators and Their Applications to Dynamical Systems Modelling.- Asymptotic Behavior of Discrete Fractional Systems.- Fractional Variable-Order Linear System State-State Description Transformations.- Balanced Truncation Model Reduction in Approximation of Nabla Difference-based Discrete-time Fractional-order Systems.- State Feedback Law for Discerte-time Nonlonear Fractional Systems.- Some Specific Properties of Positive Standard and Fractional Interval Systems.- Global Stability of Nonlinear Fractional Dynamical Systems.- Controllability and Minimum Energy Control of Linear Fractional Systems.- Selected Engineering Applications of Fractional-Order Calculus.- Fractional Order State Space Models of One-dimensional Heat Transfer Process.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Artificial Intelligence in Cardiothoracic Imaging
Book SynopsisThis book provides an overview of current and potential applications of artificial intelligence (AI) for cardiothoracic imaging. Most AI systems used in medical imaging are data-driven and based on supervised machine learning. Clinicians and AI specialists can contribute to the development of an AI system in different ways, focusing on their respective strengths. Unfortunately, communication between these two sides is far from fluent and, from time to time, they speak completely different languages. Mutual understanding and collaboration are imperative because the medical system is based on physicians’ ability to take well-informed decisions and convey their reasoning to colleagues and patients.This book offers unique insights and informative chapters on the use of AI for cardiothoracic imaging from both the technical and clinical perspective. It is also a single comprehensive source that provides a complete overview of the entire process of the development and use of AI in clinical practice for cardiothoracic imaging. The book contains chapters focused on cardiac and thoracic applications as well more general topics on the potentials and pitfalls of AI in medical imaging.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Soft Computing and Fuzzy Methodologies in
Book SynopsisThis book provides recent research on soft computing and fuzzy methodologies in innovation management and sustainability. The uncertainty in the business world is increasing. Significant changes are generated unexpectedly, so using fuzzy logic and soft computing methods allows us to create flexible scenarios adaptable to new realities. Within the book, we will find different applications of fuzzy methodologies that can apply to various topics such as sustainability, innovation, tourism, costs, exports, systems administration, among others. The book's main contribution is the applicability of the various methodologies to specific cases, which allows generating a relationship between theory and practice. In addition, it has some bibliometric studies on various topics that give us a visualization of what has happened and where multiple topics are headed. This book is recommended mainly for students who wish to know how the various fuzzy and soft computing tools can be taken to real situations, allowing a better understanding of these and generating new visions of future applicability.Table of ContentsRanking of Innovation and Sustainability of Tourist Destinations in Sinaloa: An Analysis with the Ordered Weighted Average Operator.- Dimensional Analysis under Pythagorean Fuzzy Set with Hesitant Linguists Term Entropy Information.- Conditions of Technology Access for Remote Work in the Quaternary Sector in Mexico in Times of COVID-19.
