Description
Discrete Signals and Inverse Problems Discrete Signals and Inverse Problems examines fundamental concepts necessary to engineers and scientists working with discrete signal processing and inverse problem solving, and places emphasis on the clear understanding of algorithms within the context of application needs.
Based on the original 'Introduction to Discrete Signals and Inverse Problems in Civil Engineering', this expanded and enriched version:
combines discrete signal processing and inverse problem solving in one book
covers the most versatile tools that are needed to process engineering and scientific data
presents step-by-step 'implementation procedures' for the most relevant algorithms
provides instructive figures, solved examples and insightful exercises
Discrete Signals and Inverse Problems is essential reading for experimental researchers and practicing engineers in civil, mechanical and electrical engineering, non-destructive testing and instrumentation. This book is also an excellent reference for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students in engineering and science.
