Networks of Learning Automata: Techniques for Online Stochastic Optimization is a comprehensive account of learning automata models with emphasis on multiautomata systems. It considers synthesis of complex learning structures from simple building blocks and uses stochastic algorithms for refining probabilities of selecting actions. Mathematical analysis of the behavior of games and feedforward networks is provided. Algorithms considered here can be used for online optimization of systems based on noisy measurements of performance index. Also, algorithms that assure convergence to the global optimum are presented. Parallel operation of automata systems for improving speed of convergence is described. The authors also include extensive discussion of how learning automata solutions can be constructed in a variety of applications.
Biography of Valangiman Sankaranarayana Srinivasa Sastri, 1869-1946, freedom fighter and nationalist who also wrote commentary on the Rāmāyana.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Pattern Recognition and Machine Intelligence, PReMI 2009, held in New Delhi, India in December 2009. The 98 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 221 initial submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on pattern recognition and machine learning, soft computing andapplications, bio and chemo informatics, text and data mining, image analysis, document image processing, watermarking and steganography, biometrics, image and video retrieval, speech and audio processing, as well as on applications.
The cutting-edge science that is taking the measure of the universe The Little Book of Cosmology provides a breathtaking look at our universe on the grandest scales imaginable. Written by one of the world's leading experimental cosmologists, this short but deeply insightful book describes what scientists are revealing through precise measurements of the faint thermal afterglow of the Big Bang—known as the cosmic microwave background, or CMB—and how their findings are transforming our view of the cosmos. Blending the latest findings in cosmology with essential concepts from physics, Lyman Page first helps readers to grasp the sheer enormity of the universe, explaining how to understand th...
