    Book SynopsisNumerical Recipes in Fortran 90 starts with a detailed introduction to the Fortran 90 language and then presents the basic concepts of parallel programming. All 350+ routines from the second edition of Numerical Recipes are presented in Fortran 90. Many are completely reworked algorithmically so as to be 'parallel-ready' and to utilise Fortran 90's advanced language features. Numerical Recipes in Fortran 90 emphasises general principles, but throughout there are also numerous hints and tips. This volume is intended for use with the original Numerical Recipes in Fortran, 2nd Edition (now called Numerical Recipes in Fortran 77) and does not discuss how the individual programs are used, or how the mathematical methods are used. An excellent guide for Fortran programmers interested in moving to Fortran 90, or C/C++ programmers interested in parallel programming.Trade Review'This new edition begins with three completely new chapters that provide a detailed introduction to the Fortran 90 language and then present the basic concepts of parallel programming, all with the same clarity and good cheer for which Numerical Recipes is famous.'

  • The Mathematics of Signal Processing Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics Series Number 48

    Cambridge University Press The Mathematics of Signal Processing Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics Series Number 48

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisArising from courses taught by the authors, this largely self-contained treatment is ideal for mathematicians who are interested in applications or for students from applied fields who want to understand the mathematics behind their subject. Early chapters cover Fourier analysis, functional analysis, probability and linear algebra, all of which have been chosen to prepare the reader for the applications to come. The book includes rigorous proofs of core results in compressive sensing and wavelet convergence. Fundamental is the treatment of the linear system y=Îx in both finite and infinite dimensions. There are three possibilities: the system is determined, overdetermined or underdetermined, each with different aspects. The authors assume only basic familiarity with advanced calculus, linear algebra and matrix theory and modest familiarity with signal processing, so the book is accessible to students from the advanced undergraduate level. Many exercises are also included.Trade Review'Damelin and Miller provide a very detailed and thorough treatment of all the important mathematics related to signal processing. This includes the required background information found in elementary mathematics courses, so their book is really self-contained. The style of writing is suitable not only for mathematicians, but also for practitioners from other areas. Indeed, Damelin and Miller managed to write their text in a form that is accessible to nonspecialists, without giving up mathematical rigor.' Kai Diethelm, Computing Reviews'In the last 20 years or so, many books on wavelets have been published; most of them deal with wavelets from either the engineering or the mathematics perspective, but few try to connect the two viewpoints. The book under review falls under the last category … Overall, the book is a good addition to the literature on engineering mathematics.' Ahmed I. Zayed, Mathematical ReviewsTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Normed vector spaces; 3. Analytic tools; 4. Fourier series; 5. Fourier transforms; 6. Compressive sensing; 7. Discrete transforms; 8. Linear filters; 9. Windowed Fourier transforms, continuous wavelets, frames; 10. Multiresolution analysis; 11. Discrete wavelet theory; 12. Biorthogonal filters and wavelets; 13.

    Book SynopsisThis comprehensive, accessible textbook covers the basics of signal processing, building up from fundamental principles to practical applications. It uses engineering notation to make mathematical concepts easy to follow, includes numerous homework problems and is accompanied by an extensive Mathematica® companion and instructor solutions manual.Trade Review'This is a major book about a serious subject - the combination of engineering and mathematics that goes into modern signal processing: discrete time, continuous time, sampling, filtering, and compression. The theory is beautiful and the applications are so important and widespread.' Gil Strang, Massachusetts Institute of Technology'A refreshing new approach to teaching the fundamentals of signal processing. Starting from basic concepts in algebra and geometry, [the authors] bring the reader to deep understandings of modern signal processing. Truly a gem!' Rico Malvar, Microsoft Research'A wonderful book that connects together all the elements of modern signal processing … it's all here and seamlessly integrated, along with a summary of history and developments in the field. A real tour-de-force, and a must-have on every signal processor's shelf!' Robert D. Nowak, University of Wisconsin, Madison'Finally a wonderful and accessible book for teaching modern signal processing to undergraduate students.' Stéphane Mallat, École Normale Supérieure'Most introductory signal processing textbooks focus on classical transforms, and study how these can be used. Instead, Foundations of Signal Processing encourages readers to think of signals first. It develops a 'signal-centric' view, one that focuses on signals, their representation and approximation, through the introduction of signal spaces. Unlike most entry-level signal processing texts, this general view, which can be applied to many different signal classes, is introduced right at the beginning. From this, starting from basic concepts, and placing an emphasis on intuition, this book develops mathematical tools that give the readers gets a fresh perspective on classical results, while providing them with the tools to understand many state of the art signal representation techniques.' Antonio Ortega, University of Southern California'Foundations of Signal Processing … is a pleasure to read. Drawing on the authors' rich experience of research and teaching of signal processing and signal representations, it provides an intellectually cohesive and modern view of the subject from the geometric point of view of vector spaces. Emphasizing Hilbert spaces, where fine technicalities can be relegated to backstage, this textbook strikes an excellent balance between intuition and mathematical rigor, that will appeal to both undergraduate and graduate engineering students. The last two chapters, on sampling and interpolation, and on localization and uncertainty, take full advantage of the machinery developed in the previous chapters to present these two very important topics of modern signal processing, that previously were only found in specialized monographs. The explanations of advanced topics are exceptionally lucid, exposing the reader to the ideas and thought processes behind the results and their derivation. Students will learn … why things work, at a deep level, which will equip them for independent further reading and research. I look forward to using this text in my own teaching.'

    Book SynopsisThis textbook develops the fundamental skills of numerical analysis: designing numerical methods, implementing them in computer code, and analyzing their accuracy and efficiency. A number of mathematical problems—interpolation, integration, linear systems, zero finding, and differential equations—are considered, and some of the most important methods for their solution are demonstrated and analyzed. Notable features of this book include the development of Chebyshev methods alongside more classical ones; a dual emphasis on theory and experimentation; the use of linear algebra to solve problems from analysis, which enables students to gain a greater appreciation for both subjects; and many examples and exercises.Numerical Analysis: Theory and Experiments is designed to be the primary text for a junior- or senior-level undergraduate course in numerical analysis for mathematics majors. Scientists and engineers interested in numerical methods, particularly those seeking an accessible introduction to Chebyshev methods, will also be interested in this book.
