John Vince explains a wide range of mathematical techniques and problem-solving strategies associated with computer games, animation, virtual reality, CAD other areas graphics in this updated expanded fourth edition. The first four chapters revise number sets, algebra, trigonometry coordinate systems, which are employed the following on vectors, transforms, interpolation, 3D curves patches, ana...

Many optimization problems have complex search space, which either increase the solving problem time or finish searching without obtaining the best solution. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is an optimization technique used in solving many practical problems in science, engineering, and business domains. Parallel Genetic Algorithm (PGA) has been widely used to increase speed of GA, especially after the ...

The Key Findings Reporter (KEFIR) is a system for discovering and explaining \key ndings" in large, relational databases. This paper describes an application of KEFIR to the analysis of health-care information. The system performs an automatic analysis of data along multiple dimensions to determine the most interesting deviations of speciic quantitative measures relative to norms and previous v...
