Machine Learning A Bayesian and Optimization Perspective By Sergios Theodoridis

Description This tutorial text gives a unifying perspective on machine learning by covering both probabilistic and deterministic approaches -which are based on optimization techniques – together with the Bayesian inference approach, whose essence lies in the use of a hierarchy of probabilistic models. The book presents the major machine learning methods as they have been developed in different disciplines, such as statistics, statistical and adaptive signal processing and computer science. Focusing on the physical reasoning behind the mathematics, all the various methods and techniques are explained in depth, supported by examples and…

Solving Engineering Problems in Dynamics By Michael B. Spektor

INTRODUCTION Purposeful control and improvement of how existing mechanical systems perform is an important real-life problem, as is the development of new systems. We can obtain solutions to these problems by investigating the working processes of machines and their units and elements. These investigations should be based on fundamentals of dynamics combined with a variety of related sciences. The working processes that characterize system performance can be described by mathematical expressions that actually represent equations of motion of these systems. Analyzing these equations of motion reveals the relationship between the…

How to find A Reflection Image

To find a reflection image of a point or a shape,  there are some rules you can follow although it is not always possible to follow a rule. First, let us start with all situations where you can just follow a rule to quickly find the location of the reflected image on the coordinate system. Keep in mind that once you know how to find a reflection image for a point, you can easily find it for a shape. For example, if the shape has 3 points, just find the…

Mathematical Formulas for Industrial and Mechanical Engineering

Description Mathematical Formulas For Industrial and Mechanical Engineering serves the needs of students and teachers as well as professional workers in engineering who use mathematics. The contents and size make it especially convenient and portable. The widespread availability and low price of scientific calculators have greatly reduced the need for many numerical tables that make most handbooks bulky. However, most calculators do not give integrals, derivatives, series and other mathematical formulas and figures that are often needed. Accordingly, this book contains that information in an easy way to access in addition…
