This text covering the 1997 IEEE Signal Processing Workshop on High-Order Statistics is designed for researchers, professors, practitioners, students and other computing professionals.

Contains papers from a June 1999 workshop, covering theories, techniques, implementations, and applications of statistical signal processing, with particular emphasis on methods involving the use of higher order statistics (HOS). Papers represent the latest advances in areas of signal processing for communications, convolutive mixtures, HOS-based signal processing theory and methods, heavy-tailed models and processing, Bayesian methods of signal processing, non-stationary signal processing, and HOS-signal processing applications. Specific subjects include higher-order statistical models of visual images, cumulant matrix subspace algorithms for blind single FIR channel identification, and Bayesian wavelet denoising using Besov priors.

The four volume set assembled following The 2005 International Conference on Computational Science and its Applications, ICCSA 2005, held in Suntec International Convention and Exhibition Centre, Singapore, from 9 May 2005 till 12 May 2005, represents the ?ne collection of 540 refereed papers selected from nearly 2,700 submissions. Computational Science has ?rmly established itself as a vital part of many scienti?c investigations, a?ecting researchers and practitioners in areas ranging from applications such as aerospace and automotive, to emerging technologies such as bioinformatics and nanotechnologies, to core disciplines such as ma- ematics, physics, and chemistry. Due to the shear size of many challenges in computational science, the use of supercomputing, parallel processing, and - phisticated algorithms is inevitable and becomes a part of fundamental t- oretical research as well as endeavors in emerging ?elds. Together, these far reaching scienti?c areas contribute to shape this Conference in the realms of state-of-the-art computational science research and applications, encompassing the facilitating theoretical foundations and the innovative applications of such results in other areas.

Nonlinear signal and image processing methods are fast emerging as an alternative to established linear methods for meeting the challenges of increasingly sophisticated applications. Advances in computing performance and nonlinear theory are making nonlinear techniques not only viable, but practical. This book details recent advances in nonl

"The collection of the contributions to these volumes offers a flavor of the plethora of different approaches to attack structured matrix problems. The reader will find that the theory of structured matrices is positioned to bridge diverse applications in the sciences and engineering, deep mathematical theories, as well as computational and numberical issues. The presentation fully illustrates the fact that the technicques of engineers, mathematicisn, and numerical analysts nicely complement each other, and they all contribute to one unified theory of structured matrices"--Back cover.
