Analysis and Applications of Artificial Neural Networks by L.P.J. Veelenturf
|
|

Thorough, compact, and self-contained, this explanation and analysis of a broad range of neural nets is conveniently structured so that readers can first gain a quick global understanding of neural nets -- without the mathematics -- and can then delve into mathematical specifics as necessary. The behavior of neural nets is first explained from an intuitive perspective; the formal analysis is then presented; and the practical implications of the formal analysis are stated separately. Analyzes the behavior of the six main types of neural networks -- The Binary Perceptron, The Continuous Perceptron (Multi-Layer Perceptron), The Bidirectional Memories, The Hopfield Network (Associative Neural Nets), The Self-Organizing Neural Network of Kohonen, and the new Time Sequentional Neural Network. For technically-oriented individuals working with information retrieval, pattern recognition, speech recognition, signal processing, data classification.

Emerging Memories: Technologies and Trends, by Prince
|
|
 Springer | 0792376846 | 2006 | PDF | 296p | 22MB
Emerging Memories: Technologies and Trends attempts to provide background and a description of the basic technology, function and properties of emerging as well as discussing potentially suitable applications. This book explores a range of new memory products and technologies. The concept for some of these memories has been around for years. A few completely new. Some involve materials that have been in volume production in other type of devices for some time. Ferro-electrics, for example, have been used in capacitors for more than 30 years. In addition to looking at using known devices and materials in novel ways, there are new technologies being investigated such as DNA memories, light memories, molecular memories, and carbon nanotube memories, as well as the new polymer memories which hold the potential for the significant manufacturing reduction. Emerging Memories: Technologies and Trends is a useful reference for the professional engineer in the semiconductor industry.

USB Design by Example: A Practical Guide to Building I/O Devices & USBTrace
|
|
 Intel Press | 0970284659 | 2001 | PDF | 510p | 15MB
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) specification is a boon for users in that it makes the process of connecting peripherals to computers effortless, in most cases. As is often the case with user-friendliness, though, the cosmetic ease comes about as a result of behind-the-scenes complexity. USB Design by Example explains what USB means to hardware developers, taking an approach that combines academic elucidation of the official specification with some experimental setups. Though not everything a hardware developer could wish for, John Hyde's explanations represent a valuable supplement to the notably obtuse specification documents. This book does a good job of explaining USB input/output from both the hardware and software perspectives. You'll find both driver code and pinout diagrams here. All the software information has to do with the IBM-compatible PC platform and the Windows 98 operating system, so Macintosh developers will have to look elsewhere. Some of Hyde's explanations of how various hardware companies solved USB problems--Symbol Technologies' use of a keyboard emulator for its barcode scanners, for example--are intriguing, but more information (in the form of circuit diagrams, preferably) would be better. The clear explanation of what happens when a new device is plugged into a live USB bus is very intriguing, though. Overall, peripheral developers will find this book useful, but not encyclopedic. --David Wall
Topics covered: Universal Serial Bus (USB) architecture, packet contents, device detection, drivers and run-time software, and bridging older connection specifications (RS-232, parallel, SCSI and I2C) to USB. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Book Description This unique guide goes beyond all the Universal Serial Bus (USB) specification overviews to provide you with the expert knowledge and skills you need to design and implement USB I/O devices. It is organized around a series of fully documented, real-world examples, and is structured to serve as both a step-by-step guide for creating specific devices and a complete reference to USB. Design examples cover most USB classes (HID, communications, audio, mass-storage and hub) and provide insights into high-speed USB 2.0 devices, including a definition and a device driver for a vendor class, called blockio.
Intel insider John Hyde:
Provides examples, complete with schematics and source code, that gradually increase in complexity Describes many vendor solutions and shows how to pick the ones best suited to your project needs Explains how to design a vast array of devices, including data acquisition, audio, video and computer-telephony examples.

Linear Algebra and Its Applications by Gilbert Strang
|
|
![]() Renowned professor and author Gilbert Strang demonstrates that linear algebra is a fascinating subject by showing both its beauty and value. While the mathematics is there, the effort is not all concentrated on proofs. Strang's emphasis is on understanding. He explains concepts, rather than deduces. This book is written in an informal and personal style and teaches real mathematics. The gears change in Chapter 2 as students reach the introduction of vector spaces. Throughout the book, the theory is motivated and reinforced by genuine applications, allowing pure mathematicians to teach applied mathematics.
