In order to enhance the efficiency and reliability of the power grid, diversify energy
resources, improve power security, and reduce greenhouse gas emission, many
countries have been putting great efforts in designing and constructing their smart
grid(SG) infrastructures.Smart gridcommunicationsnetw ...
The author’s group has developed various chipless RFID tags and reader architectures
at 2.45, 4–8, 24, and 60 GHz. These results were published extensively in the form of
books, book chapters, refereed conference and journal articles, and finally, as patent
applications. However, there is still ro ...
With the continued growth in the world's population, there is a need to ensure availability of
enough food to feed everyone. Advances in science and technology have helped not only to
increase food production, but also to reduce food wastage. However, the latter has the
potential to be improved to a ...
LIKE SO MANY OTHERS , THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN BECAUSE WE COULDN ’ T FIND ONE LIKE IT . We
needed something to hand to all of those people who have come to us asking for “a good
book to read on RFID.” When we looked for candidates we found some great books, but
most were aimed at electrical engineer ...
Of the various applications that satellites have been used for, one of
the most promising is that of global positioning. Made possible by
Global Navigation Satellite Systems, global positioning enables any
user to know his or her exact position on Earth. Nowadays, the only
fully functioning system i ...
This book is an outgrowth of a course developed at Stanford University over
the past five years. It is suitable as a self-contained textbook for second-level
undergraduates or for first-level graduate students in almost every field that
employs quantit ...
Modern information technologies and the advent of machines powered by artificial
intelligence (AI) have already strongly influenced the world of work in the 21st century.
Computers, algorithms and software simplify everyday tasks, and it is impossible
to imagine how most of our life could be managed ...
The past decade has seen an explosion of machine learning research and appli-
cations; especially, deep learning methods have enabled key advances in many
applicationdomains,suchas computervision,speechprocessing,andgameplaying.
However, the performance of many machine learning methods is very sensi ...
Pattern recognition has its origins in engineering, whereas machine learning grew
out of computer science. However, these activities can be viewed as two facets of
the same field, and together they have undergone substantial development over the
past ten years. In particular, Bayesian methods have g ...
Much has been written concerning the manner in which healthcare is changing, with
a particular emphasis on how very large quantities of data are now being routinely
collected during the routine care of patients. The use of machine learning meth-
ods to turn these ever-growing quantities of data into ...
