    Digital Signal Processing: Fundamentals, Applications, and Deep Learning, Fourth Edition introduces students to the fundamental principles of digital signal processing (DSP) while also providing a working knowledge that they take with them into their engineering careers. Many instructive, worked examples are used to illustrate the material, and the use of mathematics is minimized for an easier grasp of concepts. As such, this title is also useful as a reference for non-engineering students and practicing engineers.This book goes beyond DSP theory, showing the implementation of algorithms in hardware and software. Additional topics covered include DSP for artificial intelligence, adaptive filtering with noise reduction and echo cancellations, speech compression, signal sampling, digital filter realizations, filter design, multimedia applications, over-sampling, etc. More advanced topics are also covered, such as adaptive filters, speech compression such as pulse-code modulation, µ-law, adaptive differential pulse-code modulation, multi-rate DSP, oversampling analog-to-digital conversion, sub-band coding, wavelet transform, and neural networks.

  • Approximation Theory and Applications

    Piecewise Linear and Generalized Functions
    • 1st Edition
    • Sergei Aliukov
    • English
    Approximation Theory and Applications: Piecewise Linear and Generalized Functions presents the main provisions of approximation theory, and considers existing and new methods for approximating piecewise linear and generalized functions, widely used to solve problems related to mathematical modeling of systems, processes, and phenomena in fields ranging from engineering to economics. The widespread use of piecewise linear and generalized functions is explained by the simplicity of their structure. However, challenges often arise when constructing solutions over the entire domain of these functions, requiring the use special mathematical methods to put theory into practice. This book first offers a first full foundation in approximation theory as it relates to piecewise linear and generalized functions, followed by staged methods to resolve common problems in practice, with applications examined across structural mechanics, medicine, quantum theory, signal theory, semiconductor theory, mechanical engineering, heat engineering, and other fields. Later chapters consider numerical verification of approximation methods, and approximation theory as the basis for new macroeconomic theory with impulse and jump characteristics. Each chapter includes questions for review and sample problems, accompanied by a separate Solutions Manual hosted for instructor access.

    • English
    Irreducible Tensorial Sets discusses mathematical methods originating from the theory of coupling and recoupling of angular momenta in atomic physics that constitute an extension of vector and tensor algebra. The book presents a unified treatment with a compact system of notations from different approaches, such as group theory, algebra, and quantum mechanical transformation theory. It discusses irreducible tensorial sets that cover different sets of quantities such as tensor components and states of atomic systems. It also explains quantum mechanical applications, coupling and recoupling of atomic and nuclear states, the Wigner-Eckart theorem, and the products of tensorial sets of operators. The text shows how to calculate the interaction energy between atomic systems couple with one another with a constant total angular momentum. The book also explains the correlations which are functions of the Euler angles between the frame of reference in which a radiation is observed and a frame of reference attached to the orienting radiation or field. It then cites sample problems related to the angular distribution of radiations. The book will prove useful for physicists, for mathematicians, or for readers with some knowledge in theoretical physics, particularly on theory of groups and quantum mechanics.

    • English
    Fractional Modeling of Fluid Flow and Transport Phenomena focuses on mathematical and numerical aspects of fractional-order modeling in fluid flow and transport phenomena. The book covers fundamental concepts, advancements, and practical applications, including modeling developments, numerical solutions, and convergence analysis for both time and space fractional order models. Various types of flows are explored, such as single- and multi-phase flows in porous media, involving different fluid types like Newtonian, non-Newtonian, nanofluids, and ferrofluids. This book serves as a comprehensive reference on fractional-order modeling of fluid flow and transport phenomena, offering a single resource that is currently unavailable.Fraction... modeling has gained traction in engineering and science, particularly in fluid dynamics and transport phenomena. However, its mathematical and numerical advancements have progressed relatively slowly compared to other aspects. Therefore, this book emphasizes the fractional-order modeling of fluid flow and transport phenomena to bridge this gap. Each chapter in the book delves into a specific topic closely related to the others, ensuring a cohesive and self-contained structure.
