This book describes fundamental computational methods for image reconstruction in computed tomography (CT) with a focus on a pedagogical presentation of these methods and their underlying concepts. Insights into the advantages, limitations, and theoretical and computational aspects of the methods are included, giving a balanced presentation that allows readers to understand and implement CT reconstruction algorithms. Unique in its emphasis on the interplay between modeling, computing, and algorithm development, Computed Tomography: Algorithms, Insight, and Just Enough Theory develops the mathematical and computational aspects of three main classes of reconstruction methods: classical filtere...
More than half the nations that exist today have gained their independence since 1945. During this period over 2,300 individuals have ruled the various nations of the world; this encyclopedia offers insight into the history of individual nations through the lives of their leaders.

Understand the art & science of why people choose you. Your message is your greatest tool to influence others to choose you. The problem is, most people fail because they don't know how to position and sell themselves. Their message gets lost in the noise. Because our brains are wired to pay attention to certain things, when you build your message on three key (research-backed) strategies, you will bypass the brain's defenses, stand out from the crowd, and influence Decision Makers to choose you...every single time. This book tells you how. Inside of the influence mindset you will learn: How the influence game has changed and how to quickly and easily influence anyone with 4 simple techniques How to succeed in the most competitive selective environments in the world How to stand out from the crowd as exemplary and unique (even if secretly you know you aren't) If you want to be more influential, compete with the best, and win, then this book is for you.

This book gives an introduction to the practical treatment of inverse problems by means of numerical methods, with a focus on basic mathematical and computational aspects. To solve inverse problems, we demonstrate that insight about them goes hand in hand with algorithms.

Individuals and firms can improve their performance through collaboration and competition. However, it is still an open question how collaboration and competition schemes can be optimally designed and incentivized in order to exploit their full potential. Jonas Heite investigates this question by assessing efforts to stimulate R&D collaboration and by examining properties as well as underlying mechanisms (e.g., effort, risk, confidence and stress) of ability configurations in contests. Based on three large-scale economic studies covering laboratory, field and natural experiments, the author applies novel and sophisticated econometric methods to provide causal empirical evidence that yields important implications for policymakers, managers and researchers.
Prior to 1862, when the Department of Agriculture was established, the report on agriculture was prepared and published by the Commissioner of Patents, and forms volume or part of volume, of his annual reports, the first being that of 1840.
