Deep learning algorithms have brought a revolution to the computer vision community by introducing non-traditional and efficient solutions to several image-related problems that had long remained unsolved or partially addressed. This book presents a collection of eleven chapters where each individual chapter explains the deep learning principles of a specific topic, introduces reviews of up-to-date techniques, and presents research findings to the computer vision community. The book covers a broad scope of topics in deep learning concepts and applications such as accelerating the convolutional neural network inference on field-programmable gate arrays, fire detection in surveillance applications, face recognition, action and activity recognition, semantic segmentation for autonomous driving, aerial imagery registration, robot vision, tumor detection, and skin lesion segmentation as well as skin melanoma classification. The content of this book has been organized such that each chapter can be read independently from the others. The book is a valuable companion for researchers, for postgraduate and possibly senior undergraduate students who are taking an advanced course in related topics, and for those who are interested in deep learning with applications in computer vision, image processing, and pattern recognition.

"Computers in Education: Trends, Applications and Challenges summarizes various reactions to school closure due to COVID-19, particularly focusing on the digitization of education, government, schools, and the private sector. The authors aim to demonstrate connections that exist between the notion of technology immune-technology enabled mathematics problem-solving pedagogy and the theory of instrumental genesis. This theory has been used by educational researchers to demonstrate the modern-day pedagogical appropriation of an artifact as a material object. The development, implementation and evaluation of a mixed-mode delivery method involving a well-designed user interface and mobile learning applications is discussed. The concluding study presents some implementations of Newton-Cotes integration methods to nonlinear 2D integrals with a new calculator: TWOD integral calculator designed with the help of Matlab Graphical User Interface"--

The Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) recently endorsed the use of computers in food science education. The minimum standards for degrees in food science, as suggested by IFT,"require the students to use computers in the solution of problems, the collection and analysis of data, the control processes, in addition to word processing."Because they are widely used in business, allow statistical and graphical of experimental data, and can mimic laboratory experimentation, spreadsheets provide an ideal tool for learning the important features of computers and programming. In addition, they are ideally suited for food science students, who usually do not have an extensive mathematical background.Drawing from the many courses he has taught at UC Davis, Dr. Singh covers the general basics of spreadsheets using examples specific to food science. He includes more than 50 solved problems drawn from key areas of food science, namely food microbiology, food chemistry, sensory evaluation, statistical quality control, and food engineering. Each problem is presented with the required equations and detailed steps necessary for programming the spreadsheet. Helpful hints in using the spreadsheets are also provided throughout the text.Key Features* The first book to integrate speadsheets in teaching food science and technology* Includes more than 50 solved examples of spreadsheet use in food science and engineering* Presents a step-by-step introduction to spreadsheet use* Provides a food composition database on a computer disk
