Image synthesis, or rendering, is a field of transformation: it changes geometry and physics into meaningful images. Because the most popular algorithms frequently change, it is increasingly important for researchers and implementors to have a basic understanding of the principles of image synthesis. Focusing on theory, Andrew Glassner provides a comprehensive explanation of the three core fields of study that come together to form digital image synthesis: the human visual system, digital signal processing, and the interaction of matter and light. Assuming no more than a basic background in calculus, Glassner transforms his passion and expertise into a thorough presentation of each of these disciplines, and their elegant orchestration into modern rendering techniques such as radiosity and ray tracing.
A compact overview on signals and systems, with emphasis on analysis of continuous and discrete systems in time domain. Frequency-domain analysis, transform analysis and state-space analysis are also discussed in detail. With abundant examples and exercises to facilitate learning, it is an ideal texts for graduate students and lecturers in signal processing, and communication engineering.
Computer algebra systems are now ubiquitous in all areas of science and engineering. This highly successful textbook, widely regarded as the 'bible of computer algebra', gives a thorough introduction to the algorithmic basis of the mathematical engine in computer algebra systems. Designed to accompany one- or two-semester courses for advanced undergraduate or graduate students in computer science or mathematics, its comprehensiveness and reliability has also made it an essential reference for professionals in the area. Special features include: detailed study of algorithms including time analysis; implementation reports on several topics; complete proofs of the mathematical underpinnings; and a wide variety of applications (among others, in chemistry, coding theory, cryptography, computational logic, and the design of calendars and musical scales). A great deal of historical information and illustration enlivens the text. In this third edition, errors have been corrected and much of the Fast Euclidean Algorithm chapter has been renovated.

Digital Signal Processing:A Primer with MATLAB® provides excellent coverage of discrete-time signals and systems. At the beginning of each chapter, an abstract states the chapter objectives. All principles are also presented in a lucid, logical, step-by-step approach. As much as possible, the authors avoid wordiness and detail overload that could hide concepts and impede understanding. In recognition of requirements by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) on integrating computer tools, the use of MATLAB® is encouraged in a student-friendly manner. MATLAB is introduced in Appendix C and applied gradually throughout the book. Each illustrative example is immediately ...
Biomedical Signal Analysis Comprehensive resource covering recent developments, applications of current interest, and advanced techniques for biomedical signal analysis Biomedical Signal Analysis provides extensive insight into digital signal processing techniques for filtering, identification, characterization, classification, and analysis of biomedical signals with the aim of computer-aided diagnosis, taking a unique approach by presenting case studies encountered in the authors’ research work. Each chapter begins with the statement of a biomedical signal problem, followed by a selection of real-life case studies and illustrations with the associated signals. Signal processing, modeling,...
Exploring signals and systems, this work develops continuous-time and discrete-time concepts, highlighting the differences and similarities. Two chapters deal with the Laplace transform and the Z-transform. Basic methods such as filtering, communication an
