The Solution Path by Tasos Sioukas Pdf

Problem solving is one of the most valuable skills for managers, supervisors, and executives. In The Solution Path, Tasos Sioukas combines practical techniques and tools with spirituality, life skills, and an emphasis on relationships and teams. He presents proven methods that enable readers to take action and create solutions. Unlike other books on the subject that leave readers thirsty for inspiration, Sioukas inspires readers to capitalize on positive thinking and their own creative abilities. He assists readers to understand themselves and others so that they can build effective problem-solving teams and enables them to use facilitation, a set of techniques that help team members maximize their time together. The Solution Path supports readers in taking action on a specific challenge. It provides a step-by-step path to solutions, which begins by visualizing ideal outcomes and using creativity exercises to generate as many ideas as possible, continues with synthesizing the ideas into the best workable solution, and ends with designing an action plan to make the solution a reality. The Solution Path maximizes the collective genius of teams while achieving buy-in and commitment for lasting organizational change.

The Solution Path of the Generalized Lasso by Ryan Joseph Tibshirani Pdf

We present a path algorithm for the generalized lasso problem. This problem penalizes the l1 norm of a matrix D times the coefficient vector, and has a wide range of applications, dictated by the choice of D. Our algorithm is based on solving the dual of the generalized lasso, which facilitates computation and conceptual understanding of the path. For D=I (the usual lasso), we draw a connection between our approach and the well-known LARS algorithm. For an arbitrary D, we derive an unbiased estimate of the degrees of freedom of the generalized lasso fit. This estimate turns out to be quite intuitive in many applications.

Handbook of Mathematical Models and Algorithms in Computer Vision and Imaging by Ke Chen,Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb,Xue-Cheng Tai,Laurent Younes Pdf

This handbook gathers together the state of the art on mathematical models and algorithms for imaging and vision. Its emphasis lies on rigorous mathematical methods, which represent the optimal solutions to a class of imaging and vision problems, and on effective algorithms, which are necessary for the methods to be translated to practical use in various applications. Viewing discrete images as data sampled from functional surfaces enables the use of advanced tools from calculus, functions and calculus of variations, and nonlinear optimization, and provides the basis of high-resolution imaging through geometry and variational models. Besides, optimization naturally connects traditional model-driven approaches to the emerging data-driven approaches of machine and deep learning. No other framework can provide comparable accuracy and precision to imaging and vision. Written by leading researchers in imaging and vision, the chapters in this handbook all start with gentle introductions, which make this work accessible to graduate students. For newcomers to the field, the book provides a comprehensive and fast-track introduction to the content, to save time and get on with tackling new and emerging challenges. For researchers, exposure to the state of the art of research works leads to an overall view of the entire field so as to guide new research directions and avoid pitfalls in moving the field forward and looking into the next decades of imaging and information services. This work can greatly benefit graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in imaging and vision; applied mathematicians; medical imagers; engineers; and computer scientists.

Computers for Artificial Intelligence Processing by Benjamin W. Wah,C. V. Ramamoorthy Pdf

The present book supports the increasing complexity and the growing need for computational power of artificial intelligence (AI) by providing comprehensive treatments of new hardware and software engineering met in AI language design and applications. The book is a collection of 16 substantial papers (chapters), the contributors being 51 well-known researchers in the AI fields. The papers are grouped into the following five sections: Section 1 represents a well documented survey on symbolic processing computers. Section 2 (Language-based AI Architectures) supports the design and implementation of AI language-oriented computers. Three (2-4) chapters are devoted to (computer architecture concerning) sequential Lisp processing: architectural features of Lisp computers, Symbolics’ Lisp computer architecture, memory management and performance evaluation of a Lisp machine system. Other three (5-7) chapters discuss multiprocessing and parallel processing of Lisp (and general functional) programs. The last two chapters of section 2 are presenting architectures supporting object-oriented programming (Smalltalk) and production systems. Section 3 (Multiprocessor AI Architecture) contains two (10-11) chapters, dealing with Connection Machine architecture and its applications, and with the design of data/knowledge base machines for AI processing. Section 4 (Connectionist Architectures and Applications) include two (12-13) chapters, illustrating the connectionist model architecture design and learning. Section 5 (Software Architectures for AI Applications) is made up of three (14-16) chapters, analysing the relationship between AI and software engineering, the development tools for AI programs, and the problem of AI hardware and software reliability. This book addresses a wide range of AI readers, from beginners to professionals. It carries forth doubtless qualities: compact and well-dimensioned chapters, comprehensively written by AI remarkable professionals, covering up-to-date AI topics and trends.
