Location-based Services (LBSs) are mobile services for providing information that has been created, compiled, selected or filtered under consideration of the users' current locations or those of other persons or mobile devices. Typical examples are restaurant finders, buddy trackers, navigation services or applications in the areas of mobile marketing and mobile gaming. The attractiveness of LBSs is due to the fact that users are not required to enter location information manually but are aut...

Robotic vision, the combination of robotics and computer vision, involves the application of computer algorithms to data acquired from sensors. The research community has developed a large body of such algorithms but for a newcomer to the field this can be quite daunting. For over 20 years the author has maintained two open-source MATLAB (R) Toolboxes, one for robotics and one for vision.

They provide implementations of many important algorithms and allow users to work with real problems, not...

Applied Statistics and Probability for Engineers provides a practical approach to probability and statistical methods. Students learn how the material will be relevant in their careers by including a rich collection of examples and problem sets that reflect realistic applications and situations. This product focuses on real engineering applications and real engineering solutions while including material on the bootstrap, increased emphasis on the use of p-value, coverage of equivalence testin...

Toegepaste wiskunde deel 1 (6e druk, 2016) behandelt de wiskundeleerstof voor de propedeusefase. Het boek is geschikt voor alle opleidingen in het hoger technisch onderwijs.

In deel 1 krijgt de student veel oefeningen aangereikt. Met voorbeelden wordt de student door de stof geleid. Er is veel gedaan om het inzicht en de routine in wiskundige concepten te vergroten, maar ook wiskundige contexten krijgen voldoende aandacht. Uitvoerige, formele bewijzen komen nauwelijks voor.

Elk hoofdstuk bevat...
