Book Description
This book provides problem-solving techniques ideal for students and young engineers just starting out in the their careersEach subtopic under Electronics is addressed in a separate section and begins with a brief explanation of the topic. Then the math derivations are provided. This information does not intend to teach the topic but rather provides a reference to the topic. After the derivations 5 fully worked out problems and 5 practice problems make use of practical issues forcing the reader to look at the same problem from various angles, thereby driving home the problem-solving technique ...

Miscalculations
If you are writing a book that is solely text and you misspell a word, the concept will still be clear from the context of what is being written.

However when you are writing a technical book where math is being manipulated and you write 12 instead of 10 it is unacceptable.

It is diffcult to determine if the initial number was correct or the subsequent number is.Half the problem is in one number and half the problem is in the second number.You can just assert one of them but there is still a question in you mind about the book's answer.

There is no errata sheet for this book on the McGraw-Hill web site.You will not get as much from this book as you expect, due to the errors. ... Read more

Book Description
This volume contains selected papers that focus on the use of linear algebra, computational statistics, and computer science in the development of algorithms and software systems for text retrieval. Experts in information modeling and retrieval share their perspectives on the design of scalable but precise text retrieval systems, revealing many of the challenges and obstacles that mathematical and statistical models must overcome to be viable for automated text processing. This very useful proceedings is an excellent companion for courses in information retrieval, applied linear algebra, and applied statistics.

Computational Information Retrieval provides background material on vector space models for text retrieval that applied mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists may not be familiar with. For graduate students in these areas, several research questions in information modeling are exposed. In addition, several case studies concerning the efficacy of the popular Latent Semantic Analysis (or Indexing) approach are provided. ... Read more
