A realistic and comprehensive review of joint approaches to machine learning and signal processing algorithms, with application to communications, multimedia, and biomedical engineering systems Digital Signal Processing with Kernel Methods reviews the milestones in the mixing of classical digital signal processing models and advanced kernel machines statistical learning tools. It explains the fundamental concepts from both fields of machine learning and signal processing so that readers can quickly get up to speed in order to begin developing the concepts and application software in their own research. Digital Signal Processing with Kernel Methods provides a comprehensive overview of kernel methods in signal processing, without restriction to any application field. It also offers example applications and detailed benchmarking experiments with real and synthetic datasets throughout. Readers can find further worked examples with Matlab source code on a website developed by the authors: http://github.com/DSPKM • Presents the necessary basic ideas from both digital signal processing and machine learning concepts • Reviews the state-of-the-art in SVM algorithms for classification and detection problems in the context of signal processing • Surveys advances in kernel signal processing beyond SVM algorithms to present other highly relevant kernel methods for digital signal processing An excellent book for signal processing researchers and practitioners, Digital Signal Processing with Kernel Methods will also appeal to those involved in machine learning and pattern recognition.
SMART GRID TELECOMMUNICATIONS Discover the foundations and main applications of telecommunications to smart grids In Smart Grid Telecommunications, renowned researchers and authors Drs. Alberto Sendin, Javier Matanza, and Ramon Ferrús deliver a focused treatment of the fundamentals and main applications of telecommunication technologies in smart grids. Aimed at engineers and professionals who work with power systems, the book explains what smart grids are and where telecommunications are needed to solve their various challenges. Power engineers will benefit from explanations of the main concepts of telecommunications and how they are applied to the different domains of a smart grid. Telecommunication engineers will gain an understanding of smart grid applications and services and will learn from the explanations of how telecommunications need to be adapted to work with them. The authors offer a simplified vision of smart grids with rigorous coverage of the latest advances in the field, while avoiding some of the technical complexities that can hinder understanding in this area. The book offers: Discussions of why telecommunications are necessary in smart grids and the various telecommunication services and systems relevant for them An exploration of foundational telecommunication concepts ranging from system-level aspects, such as network topologies, multi-layer architectures and protocol stacks, to communications channel transmission- and reception-level aspects Examinations of telecommunication-related smart grid services and systems, including SCADA, protection and teleprotection, smart metering, substation and distribution automation, synchrophasors, distributed energy resources, electric vehicles, and microgrids A treatment of wireline and wireless telecommunication technologies, like DWDM, Ethernet, IP, MPLS, PONs, PLC, BPL, 3GPP cellular 4G and 5G technologies, Zigbee, Wi-SUN, LoRaWAN, and Sigfox, addressing their architectures, characteristics, and limitations Ideal for engineers working in power systems or telecommunications as network architects, operations managers, planners, or in regulation-related activities, Smart Grid Telecommunications is also an invaluable resource for telecommunication network and smart grid architects.
The focus of this book is practical spirituality. Recognizing the stresses and strains of our busy lifestyles, Brother Ramon offers numerous helpful insights and suggestions on how we can satisfy one of our deepest human longings - the need for time alone for prayer and reflection.
St. Francis of Assisi is probably the best-loved of all the mystics of the Christian tradition. his vision of God's goodness and richness embraced not only humanity but the whole of creation, and he expressed this vision in poems of powerful simplicity.
A series of reflections based on stories from the life of St Francis, St Clare and the town of Assisi, with one for each day of the month. The stories are accompanied by illustrations and meditations for each of the 31 days taking up a two-page spread in an unusual landscape format.
