Three-dimensional structures will be needed to provide the performance required to implement computationally intensive tasks. 3-D Nanoelectronic Computer Architecture and Implementation reviews the state of the art in nanoelectronic device design and fabrication and discusses the architectural aspects of 3-D designs, including the possible use of molecular wiring and carbon nanotube interconnections. This is a valuable reference for those involved in the design and development of nanoelectronic devices and technology. To buy: Knudsen S. John Wiley & Sons; 2002; 144стр.; ISBN: 0471224901 Written for biologists without special training in data analysis and statistics, the Guide takes over where the image analysis software that accompanies DNA array equipment typically leaves off–with a file of signal intensities and fold changes compared to a control. The broad spectrum of established analysis approaches is covered, including cluster analysis, function prediction, and principal component analysis. A thorough, critical review of software programs is presented, and criteria for selecting programs are discussed. Each chapter contains a Further Reading section categorized by topic as well as a summary, and highlights numerous real examples to illustrate the key concepts. Chapter topics include:
Leroy F. CRC Press; 2003; 300стр.; ISBN: 0824708768 From School Library Journal Grade 9 Up--This eye-catching resource profiles no fewer than 450 scientists. The volume is arranged first by discipline, then by date, covering laureates from 1901 to 2001. The introduction to each section describes 20th-century advances, such as the synthesis of such compounds as ammonia, fertilizers, and plastics, and recent research in molecular, supra molecular, and materials chemistry. Individual entries include a portrait, birthdate and place, description and fruition of the research, and career development. Entry style varies slightly in the separately authored sections--physics essays contain quotes and hobbies, chemistry and medicine essays include fathers' occupations. Essays on notable laureates such as Enrico Fermi, Thomas Hunt Morgan, and Linus Pauling are longer than those on lesser-known people. Original artwork, colorful captioned drawings of models and structures, and diagrams illustrate complex scientific principles and may invite browsing. Collaborative awards are cross-referenced in bold type and non-Nobelist contributors to the work, including many women, are credited but not indexed. Name and subject indexes and a table of the science awards by year are included. Both George Thomas Kurian's The Nobel Scientists (Prometheus, 2002) and Nobel Prize Winners (1987) and Supplement (1997, both H. W. Wilson) have lengthier entries but lack Recipients' great graphics and appealing format.--Vicki Reutter, Cazenovia High School, NY Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Rayner J.C., Best D.J. 2000; 264стр.; ISBN: 1584881615 Book Description Most texts on nonparametric techniques concentrate on location and linear-linear (correlation) tests, with less emphasis on dispersion effects and linear-quadratic tests. Tests for higher moment effects are virtually ignored. Using a fresh approach, A Contingency Table Approach to Nonparametric Testing unifies and extends the popular, standard tests by linking them to tests based on models for data that can be presented in contingency tables. This approach unifies popular nonparametric statistical inference and makes the traditional, most commonly performed nonparametric analyses much more complete and informative. It also makes tied data easily handled, and almost exact Monte Carlo p-values can be obtained. With data in contingency tables, one can then calculate a Pearson-type, chi-squared statistic and its components. For univariate data, the initial tests based on these components detect mean differences between treatments. For bivariate data, they detect correlations. This approach leads to tests that detect variance, skewness, and higher moment differences between treatments with univariate data, and higher bivariate moment differences with bivariate data. Although the methods advanced in this book have their genesis in traditional nonparametrics, incorporating the power of modern computers makes the approach more complete and more valid than previously possible. The authors' unified treatment and readable style make the subject easy to follow and the techniques easily implemented, whether you are a fledgling or a seasoned researcher.

Landau S., Everitt B.S. 2003; 368стр.; ISBN: 1584883693 Book Description SPSS. Powerful, user-friendly, and useful, particularly in psychology, sociology, psychiatry, and other social sciences. But to fully exploit its capabilities and effectively execute its wide range of procedures, users need detailed, to-the-point guidance that other resources lack. A Handbook of Statistical Analyses Using SPSS clearly and concisely describes how to conduct univariate and multivariate statistical analyses using the latest release of SPSS, version 11. Each chapter addresses a different type of analytical procedure and applies it to real data sets, primarily, though not exclusively, from the social and behavioral sciences. The authors briefly review the theoretical background of many of the techniques, but they set that material apart in boxes so that the presentation of the various analyses proceeds without interruption. Each chapter ends with exercises, some related to the data sets introduced in that chapter, others introducing additional data sets. These data sets and answers to most of the exercises are available for download at www.iop.kcl.ac.uk/iop/departments/BioComp/SPSSBook.shtml. If you're a relative newcomer to performing statistical analyses, a new user of SPSS, or a veteran on both fronts, A Handbook of Statistical Analyses Using SPSS will be a welcome addition to your library. Researchers and students alike will find this a convenient, self-contained route to using SPSS for effective data analysis.

Developed decades ago, the Kalman filter remains an important, powerful tool for estimating the variables in a system in the presence of noise. However, when inundated with theory and vast notations, learning just how the Kalman filter works can be a daunting task. With its mathematically rigorous, "no frills" approach to the basic discrete-time Kalman filter, A Kalman Filter Primer builds a thorough understanding of the inner workings and basic concepts of Kalman filter recursions from first principles. Instead of the typical Bayesian perspective, the author develops the topic via least-squares and classical matrix methods using the Cholesky decomposition to distill the essence of the Kalman filter and reveal the motivations behind the choice of the initializing state vector. He supplies pseudo-code algorithms for the various recursions, enabling code development to implement the filter in practice. The book thoroughly studies the development of modern smoothing algorithms and methods for determining initial states, along with a comprehensive development of the "diffuse" Kalman filter. Using a tiered presentation that builds on simple discussions to more complex and thorough treatments, A Kalman Filter Primer is the perfect introduction to quickly and effectively using the Kalman filter in practice.

DLC: Science - Vocational guidance. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Harris R.J. Lawrence Erbaum Associates; 2001; 609стр.; ISBN: 0805832106 Drawing upon more than 30 years of experience in working with statistics, Dr. Richard J. Harris has updated A Primer of Multivariate Statistics to provide a model of balance between how-to and why. This classic text covers multivariate techniques with a taste of latent variable approaches. Throughout the book there is a focus on the importance of describing and testing one's interpretations of the emergent variables that are produced by multivariate analysis. This edition retains its conversational writing style while focusing on classical techniques. The book gives the reader a feel for why one should consider diving into more detailed treatments of computer-modeling and latent-variable techniques, such as non-recursive path analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and hierarchical linear modeling. Throughout the book there is a focus on the importance of describing and testing one's interpretations of the emergent variables that are produced by multivariate analysis. From Book News, Inc. As he was looking over materials for his multivariate course, Harris (U. of New Mexico) realized that the course had outstripped the current edition of his own textbook. He decided to revise it rather than use someone else's because he finds them veering too much toward math avoidance, and not paying enough attention to emergent variables or to structural equation modeling. He has updated the 1997 second edition with new coverage of structural equation modeling and various aspects of it, new demonstrations of the properties of the various techniques, and computer applications integrated into each chapter rather than appended.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR Kenkel J.
