The concept of a linguistic variable and its application to approximate reasoning-III

A default mode of brain function

A baseline or control state is fundamental to the understanding of most complex systems. Defining a baseline state in the human brain, arguably our most complex system, poses a ...

Atoms in Molecules

Abstract The molecular structure hypothesis - that a molecule is a collection of atoms linked by a network of bonds - was forged in the crucible of nineteenth-century experiment...

Neural Networks for Pattern Recognition

Abstract This book provides the first comprehensive treatment of feed-forward neural networks from the perspective of statistical pattern recognition. After introducing the basi...

Squeeze-and-Excitation Networks

The central building block of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is the convolution operator, which enables networks to construct informative features by fusing both spatial a...

The Hungarian method for the assignment problem

Abstract Assuming that numerical scores are available for the performance of each of n persons on each of n jobs, the “assignment problem” is the quest for an assignment of pers...

Global, regional, and national prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults during 1980–2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013

Scale-space and edge detection using anisotropic diffusion

The scale-space technique introduced by Witkin involves generating coarser resolution images by convolving the original image with a Gaussian kernel. This approach has a major d...

Generative adversarial networks

Generative adversarial networks are a kind of artificial intelligence algorithm designed to solve the generative modeling problem. The goal of a generative model is to study a c...

The concept of a linguistic variable and its application to approximate reasoning—I

Modularity and community structure in networks

Many networks of interest in the sciences, including social networks, computer networks, and metabolic and regulatory networks, are found to divide naturally into communities or...

Eigenfaces vs. Fisherfaces: recognition using class specific linear projection

We develop a face recognition algorithm which is insensitive to large variation in lighting direction and facial expression. Taking a pattern classification approach, we conside...
