In the current age of information explosion, newly invented technological sensors and software are now tightly integrated with our everyday lives. Many sensor processing algorithms have incorporated some forms of computational intelligence as part of their core framework in problem solving. These algorithms have the capacity to generalize and discover knowledge for themselves and learn new information whenever unseen data are captured. The primary aim of sensor processing is to develop techniques to interpret, understand, and act on information contained in the data. The interest of this book is in developing intelligent signal processing in order to pave the way for smart sensors. This involves mathematical advancement of nonlinear signal processing theory and its applications that extend far beyond traditional techniques. It bridges the boundary between theory and application, developing novel theoretically inspired methodologies targeting both longstanding and emergent signal processing applications. The topic ranges from phishing detection to integration of terrestrial laser scanning, and from fault diagnosis to bio-inspiring filtering. The book will appeal to established practitioners, along with researchers and students in the emerging field of smart sensors processing.

The second volume will deal with a presentation of the main matrix and tensor decompositions and their properties of uniqueness, as well as very useful tensor networks for the analysis of massive data. Parametric estimation algorithms will be presented for the identification of the main tensor decompositions. After a brief historical review of the compressed sampling methods, an overview of the main methods of retrieving matrices and tensors with missing data will be performed under the low rank hypothesis. Illustrative examples will be provided.

The book is suitable to be used as a one-semester senior-level course for the undergraduate engineering technology program. However, the book could also be useful as a reference for undergraduate engineering students, science students, and practicing engineers.

This book offers an introduction to digital signal processing (DSP) with an emphasis on audio signals and computer music. It covers the mathematical foundations of DSP, important DSP theories including sampling, LTI systems, the z-transform, FIR/IIR filters, classic sound synthesis algorithms, various digital effects, topics in time and frequency-domain analysis/synthesis, and associated musical/sound examples. Whenever possible, pictures and graphics are included when presenting DSP concepts of various abstractions. To further facilitate understanding of ideas, a plethora of MATLAB® code examples are provided, allowing the reader tangible means to “connect dots” via mathematics, visuals, as well as aural feedback through synthesis and modulation of sound. This book is designed for both technically and musically inclined readers alike-folks with a common goal of exploring digital signal processing.

Taking a novel, less classical approach to the subject, the authors have written this book with the conviction that signal processing should be fun. Their treatment is less focused on the mathematics and more on the conceptual aspects, allowing students to think about the subject at a higher conceptual level, thus building the foundations for more advanced topics and helping students solve real-world problems. The last chapter pulls together the individual topics into an in-depth look at the development of an end-to-end communication system. Richly illustrated with examples and exercises in each chapter, the book offers a fresh approach to the teaching of signal processing to upper-level undergraduates.

The focus of this book is on "ill-posed inverse problems". These problems cannot be solved only on the basis of observed data. The building of solutions involves the recognition of other pieces of a priori information. These solutions are then specific to the pieces of information taken into account. Clarifying and taking these pieces of information into account is necessary for grasping the domain of validity and the field of application for the solutions built. For too long, the interest in these problems has remained very limited in the signal-image community. However, the community has since recognized that these matters are more interesting and they have become the subject of much greater enthusiasm. From the application field’s point of view, a significant part of the book is devoted to conventional subjects in the field of inversion: biological and medical imaging, astronomy, non-destructive evaluation, processing of video sequences, target tracking, sensor networks and digital communications. The variety of chapters is also clear, when we examine the acquisition modalities at stake: conventional modalities, such as tomography and NMR, visible or infrared optical imaging, or more recent modalities such as atomic force imaging and polarized light imaging.

This comprehensive and accessible textbook introduces students to the basics of modern signal processing techniques.

This book presents an up-to-date tutorial and overview on learning technologies such as random forests, sparsity, and low-rank matrix estimation and cutting-edge visual/signal processing techniques, including face recognition, Kalman filtering, and multirate DSP. It discusses the applications that make use of deep learning, convolutional neural networks, random forests, etc.
