Book Independent Component Analysis and Blind Signal Separation

Download or read book Independent Component Analysis and Blind Signal Separation written by Carlos G. Puntonet and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-10-27 with total page 1287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many situations found both in Nature and in human-built systems, a set of mixed signals is observed (frequently also with noise), and it is of great scientific and technological relevance to be able to isolate or separate them so that the information in each of the signals can be utilized. Blind source separation (BSS) research is one of the more interesting emerging fields now a days in the field of signal processing. It deals with the algorithms that allow the recovery of the original sources from a set of mixtures only. The adjective "blind" is applied because the purpose is to estimate the original sources without any a priori knowledge about either the sources or the mixing system. Most of the models employed in BSS assume the hypothesis about the independence of the original sources. Under this hypothesis, a BSS problem can be considered as a particular case of independent component analysis(ICA), a linear transformation technique that, starting from a multivariate representation of the data, minimizes the statistical dependence between the components of the representation. It can be claimed that most of the advances in ICA have been motivated by the search for solutions to the BSS problem and, the other way around, advances in ICA have been immediately applied to BSS. ICA and BSS algorithms start from a mixture model, whose parameters are estimated from the observed mixtures. Separation is achieved by applying the inverse mixture model to the observed signals(separating or unmixing model). Mixturem- els usually fall into three broad categories: instantaneous linear models, convolutive models and nonlinear models, the?rstone being the simplest but, in general, not near realistic applications. The development and test of the algorithms can be accomplished through synthetic data or with real-world data. Obviously, the most important aim(and most difficult) is the separation of real-world mixtures. BSS and ICA have strong relations also, apart from signal processing, with other fields such as statistics and artificial neural networks. As long as we can find a system that emits signals propagated through a mean, andthosesignalsarereceivedbyasetofsensorsandthereisaninterestinrecovering the original sources, we have a potential field of application for BSS and ICA. Inside that wide range of applications we can find, for instance: noise reduction applications, biomedical applications, audio systems, telecommunications, and many others. This volume comes out just 20 years after the first contributions in ICA and BSS 1 appeared . Therein after, the number of research groups working in ICA and BSS has been constantly growing, so that nowadays we can estimate that far more than 100 groups are researching in these fields. As proof of the recognition among the scientific community of ICA and BSS developments there have been numerous special sessions and special issues in several well- 1 J. Herault, B.

Book Braids  Links  and Mapping Class Groups   AM 82   Volume 82

Download or read book Braids Links and Mapping Class Groups AM 82 Volume 82 written by Joan S. Birman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-02 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central theme of this study is Artin's braid group and the many ways that the notion of a braid has proved to be important in low-dimensional topology. In Chapter 1 the author is concerned with the concept of a braid as a group of motions of points in a manifold. She studies structural and algebraic properties of the braid groups of two manifolds, and derives systems of defining relations for the braid groups of the plane and sphere. In Chapter 2 she focuses on the connections between the classical braid group and the classical knot problem. After reviewing basic results she proceeds to an exploration of some possible implications of the Garside and Markov theorems. Chapter 3 offers discussion of matrix representations of the free group and of subgroups of the automorphism group of the free group. These ideas come to a focus in the difficult open question of whether Burau's matrix representation of the braid group is faithful. Chapter 4 is a broad view of recent results on the connections between braid groups and mapping class groups of surfaces. Chapter 5 contains a brief discussion of the theory of "plats." Research problems are included in an appendix.

Book Quantum Computing for Everyone

Download or read book Quantum Computing for Everyone written by Chris Bernhardt and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible introduction to an exciting new area in computation, explaining such topics as qubits, entanglement, and quantum teleportation for the general reader. Quantum computing is a beautiful fusion of quantum physics and computer science, incorporating some of the most stunning ideas from twentieth-century physics into an entirely new way of thinking about computation. In this book, Chris Bernhardt offers an introduction to quantum computing that is accessible to anyone who is comfortable with high school mathematics. He explains qubits, entanglement, quantum teleportation, quantum algorithms, and other quantum-related topics as clearly as possible for the general reader. Bernhardt, a mathematician himself, simplifies the mathematics as much as he can and provides elementary examples that illustrate both how the math works and what it means. Bernhardt introduces the basic unit of quantum computing, the qubit, and explains how the qubit can be measured; discusses entanglement—which, he says, is easier to describe mathematically than verbally—and what it means when two qubits are entangled (citing Einstein's characterization of what happens when the measurement of one entangled qubit affects the second as “spooky action at a distance”); and introduces quantum cryptography. He recaps standard topics in classical computing—bits, gates, and logic—and describes Edward Fredkin's ingenious billiard ball computer. He defines quantum gates, considers the speed of quantum algorithms, and describes the building of quantum computers. By the end of the book, readers understand that quantum computing and classical computing are not two distinct disciplines, and that quantum computing is the fundamental form of computing. The basic unit of computation is the qubit, not the bit.

Book Adversarial Machine Learning

Download or read book Adversarial Machine Learning written by Yevgeniy Tu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing abundance of large high-quality datasets, combined with significant technical advances over the last several decades have made machine learning into a major tool employed across a broad array of tasks including vision, language, finance, and security. However, success has been accompanied with important new challenges: many applications of machine learning are adversarial in nature. Some are adversarial because they are safety critical, such as autonomous driving. An adversary in these applications can be a malicious party aimed at causing congestion or accidents, or may even model unusual situations that expose vulnerabilities in the prediction engine. Other applications are adversarial because their task and/or the data they use are. For example, an important class of problems in security involves detection, such as malware, spam, and intrusion detection. The use of machine learning for detecting malicious entities creates an incentive among adversaries to evade detection by changing their behavior or the content of malicius objects they develop. The field of adversarial machine learning has emerged to study vulnerabilities of machine learning approaches in adversarial settings and to develop techniques to make learning robust to adversarial manipulation. This book provides a technical overview of this field. After reviewing machine learning concepts and approaches, as well as common use cases of these in adversarial settings, we present a general categorization of attacks on machine learning. We then address two major categories of attacks and associated defenses: decision-time attacks, in which an adversary changes the nature of instances seen by a learned model at the time of prediction in order to cause errors, and poisoning or training time attacks, in which the actual training dataset is maliciously modified. In our final chapter devoted to technical content, we discuss recent techniques for attacks on deep learning, as well as approaches for improving robustness of deep neural networks. We conclude with a discussion of several important issues in the area of adversarial learning that in our view warrant further research. Given the increasing interest in the area of adversarial machine learning, we hope this book provides readers with the tools necessary to successfully engage in research and practice of machine learning in adversarial settings.

Book Random Circulant Matrices

Download or read book Random Circulant Matrices written by Arup Bose and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-11-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Circulant matrices have been around for a long time and have been extensively used in many scientific areas. This book studies the properties of the eigenvalues for various types of circulant matrices, such as the usual circulant, the reverse circulant, and the k-circulant when the dimension of the matrices grow and the entries are random. In particular, the behavior of the spectral distribution, of the spectral radius and of the appropriate point processes are developed systematically using the method of moments and the various powerful normal approximation results. This behavior varies according as the entries are independent, are from a linear process, and are light- or heavy-tailed. Arup Bose obtained his B.Stat., M.Stat. and Ph.D. degrees from the Indian Statistical Institute. He has been on its faculty at the Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Unit, Kolkata, India since 1991. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, and of all three national science academies of India. He is a recipient of the S.S. Bhatnagar Prize and the C.R. Rao Award. He is the author of three books: Patterned Random Matrices, Large Covariance and Autocovariance Matrices (with Monika Bhattacharjee) and U-Statistics, M_m-Estimators and Resampling (with Snigdhansu Chatterjee). Koushik Saha obtained a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandiara, Belur and an M.Sc. in Mathematics from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. He obtained his Ph.D. degree from the Indian Statistical Institute under the supervision of Arup Bose. His thesis on circulant matrices received high praise from the reviewers. He has been on the faculty of the Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay since 2014.
