The growth in the use of sensor technology has led to the demand for image fusion: signal processing techniques that can combine information received from different sensors into a single composite image in an efficient and reliable manner. This book brings together classical and modern algorithms and design architectures, demonstrating through applications how these can be implemented. Image Fusion: Algorithms and Applications provides a representative collection of the recent advances in research and development in the field of image fusion, demonstrating both spatial domain and transform domain fusion methods including Bayesian methods, statistical approaches, ICA and wavelet domain techni...
This book focuses on novel design and systems engineering approaches, including theories and best practices, for promoting a better integration of people and engineering systems. It covers a range of hot topics related to: development of human-centered systems; interface design and human-computer interaction; usability and user experience; emergent properties of human behavior; innovative materials in manufacturing, biomechanics, and sports medicine, safety engineering and systems complexity business analytics, design and technology and many more. The book, which gathers selected papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Human Systems Engineering and Design: Future Trends and Applications (IHSED 2019), held on September 16-18, 2019, at Universität der Bundeswehr München, Munich, Germany, provides researchers, practitioners and program managers with a snapshot of the state-of-the-art and current challenges in the field of human systems engineering and design.
The functioning of intelligent autonomous systems requires constant situation awareness and cognition analysis. Thus, it needs a memory structure that contains a description of the surrounding environment (world model) and serves as a central information hub. This book presents a row of theoretical and experimental results in the field of world modeling. This includes areas of dynamic and prior knowledge modeling, information fusion, management and qualitative/quantitative information analysis.
In August 2022, Fraunhofer IOSB and IES of KIT held a joint workshop in a Schwarzwaldhaus near Triberg.

This book compiles the workshop's results and ideas, offering a comprehensive overview of the research program of IES and Fraunhofer IOSB.
These volumes convey what daily life is like in the Middle East, Asia and Africa. Entries will aid readers in understanding the importance of cultural sociology, to appreciate the effects of cultural forces around the world.
The author offers a scholarly dissection of "chick lit" from a post-feminist perspective. She analyzes the novel Bridget Jones' Diary and the HBO series Sex and the City while making parallels back to writings of Jane Austen and the Victorian novel in general. She looks at what these works say about women in society and whether they are just an escape or a serious reflection of women's concerns.
In The Right Relationship, John Borrows and Michael Coyle bring together a group of renowned scholars, both indigenous and non-indigenous, to cast light on the magnitude of the challenges Canadians face in seeking a consensus on the nature of treaty partnership in the twenty-first century.
On the annual Joint Workshop of the Fraunhofer IOSB and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Vision and Fusion Laboratory, the students of both institutions present their latest research findings on image processing, visual inspection, pattern recognition, tracking, SLAM, information fusion, non-myopic planning, world modeling, security in surveillance, interoperability, and human-computer interaction. This book is a collection of 16 reviewed technical reports of the 2010 Joint Workshop.
