Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A cornerstone of linear algebra, the determinant's utility in real and complex fields is undeniable, though traditionally limited to invertibility, rank, and solving linear systems. Quaternion Generalized Inverses: Foundations, Theory, Problems, and Solutions ventures into uncharted territory: extending these concepts to linear algebra over the noncommutative quaternion skew field. The author's groundbreaking theory of 'noncommutative' row-column determinants is central to this exploration, a significant advancement beyond the Moore determinant. This seven-chapter work thoroughly introduces the history of noncommutative determinants before delving into the author's theory and its application to inverse matrix computation and Cramer's rule for quaternion systems. The main portion of this work is dedicated to a comprehensive examination of quaternion generalized inverses, spanning the well-established Moore-Penrose and Drazin inverses to more recent developments such as core-EP and composite inverses. The book provides their definitions, properties, and, uniquely, their determinantal representations based on the author's noncommutative determinants. It culminates in demonstrating their powerful applications in solving a wide range of quaternion matrix equations, including Sylvester-type and constrained equations, as well as differential matrix equations.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Managing human resources, time allocation, and risk management in R&D projects, particularly in Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning/Data Analysis, poses unique challenges. Key areas such as model design, experimental planning, system integration, and evaluation protocols require specialized attention. In most cases, the research tends to focus primarily on one of the two main aspects: either the technical aspect of AI/ML/DA or the teams effort, or the typical management aspect and team members roles in such a project. Both are equally import for successful real-world R&D, but they are rarely examined together and tightly correlated. Data Science for Teams: 20 Lessons from the Fieldwork addresses the issue of how to deal with all these aspects within the context of real-world R&D projects, which are a distinct class of their own. The book shows the everyday effort within the team, and the adhesive substance in between that makes everything work. The core material in this book is organized over four main Parts with five Lessons each. Author Harris Georgiou goes into the difficulties progressively and dives into the challenges one step at a time, using a typical timeline profile of an R&D project as a loose template. From the formation of a team to the delivery of final results, whether it is a feasibility study or an integrated system, the content of each Lesson revisits hints, ideas and events from real-world projects in these fields, ranging from medical diagnostics and big data analytics to air traffic control and industrial process optimization. The scope of DA and ML is the underlying context for all, but most importantly the main focus is the team: how its work is organized, executed, adjusted, and optimized. Data Science for Teams presents a parallel narrative journey, with an imaginary team and project assignment as an example, running an R&D project from day one to its finish line. Every Lesson is explained and demonstrated within the team narrative, including personal hints and paradigms from real-world projects.…
