Scientific Computing: Proceedings of the Workshop, 10 - 12 March 1997, Hong Kong, (Paperback)

This book concerns modern methods in scientific computing and linear algebra, relevant to image and signal processing. For these applications, it is important to consider ingredients such as: (1) sophisticated mathematical models of the problems, including a priori knowledge, (2) rigorous mathematical theories to understand the difficulties of solving problems which are ill-posed, and (3) fast algorithms for either real-time or data-massive computations. Such are the topics brought into focus by these proceedings of the Workshop on Scientific Computing (held in Hong Kong on March 10-12, 1997, the sixth in such series of Workshops held in Hong Kong since 1990), where the major themes were on numerical linear algebra, signal processing, and image processing. Readers will benefit from the lectures presented on the recent advances, trends and future directions for research in fast algorithms in scientific computing, written by leading experts in the field from around the world.
