Noise and Vibration Mitigation for Rail Transportation Systems ; Proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Railway Noise, Munich, Germany, 4 - 8 September 2007
This volume contains the contributions to the 9th International Workshop on Railway Noise, held Sept 04-08, 2007, in Munich, Germany. The workshop featured lectures by international leaders in the field of railway noise and vibration. All subjects relating to railway noise as noise sources (rolling noise, aerodynamic noise, bridge noise, sonic boom), prediction tools and theoretical models, new noise reduction, technology as well as ground-borne vibration are tackled.
Microphone Array Signal Processing
Microphone arrays have attracted a lot of interest in the last two decades. The reason behind this is that they have the potential to solve many important problems in both human-machine and human-human interfaces for different kinds of communications. But before microphone arrays can be deployed broadly, there is a strong need for a deep understanding of the problems encountered in the real world and their clear formulation in order that useful algorithms can be developed to process the sensor signals.
Computational Life Sciences ; Vol. 4216 ; 2nd International Symposium, CompLife 2006, Cambridge, UK, September 27-29, 2006, Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Computational Life Sciences, CompLife 2006. The papers are organized in topical sections on genomics, data mining, molecular simulation, molecular informatics, systems biology, biological networks/metabolism, and computational neuroscience.
Advanced Concepts for Intelligent Vision Systems ; Vol. 4179 ; 8th International Conference, ACIVS 2006, Antwerp, Belgium, September 18-21, 2006, Proceedings
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Advanced Concepts for Intelligent Vision Systems, ACIVS 2006, held in Antwerp, Belgium in September 2006. The 45 revised full papers and 65 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from around 242 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on noise reduction and restoration, segmentation, motion estimation and tracking, video processing and coding, camera calibration, image registration and stereo matching, biometrics and security, medical imaging, image retrieval and image understanding, as well as classification and recognition.

"Thisvolumecollectsthepapersacceptedforpresentationatthe7thInternational Conferenceon Advanced Conceptsfor IntelligentVision Systems (ACIVS 2005). ThoughACIVS is a conference on all areas in image processing, one of its major domains is image and video compression. A third of the selected papers dealt with compression, motion estimation, moving object detection and other video applications. This year, topics related to clustering, pattern recognition and biometrics constituted another third of the conference. The last third was more related to the fundamentals of image processing, namely noise reduction, ?ltering, restorationandimagesegmentation.We wouldliketothankthe invited speakers Fernando Pereira"
