This is the first book on the optimal estimation that places its major emphasis on practical applications treating the subject more from an engineering than a mathematical orientation Even so theoretical & mathematical concepts are introduced & developed sufficiently to make the book a self-contained source of instruction for readers without prior knowledge of the basic principles of the field The work is the product of the technical staff of the The Analytic Sciences Corporation (TASC) an organization whose success has resulted largely from its applications of optimal estimation techniques to a wide variety of real situations involving large-scale systems Arthur Gelb writes in the Foreword that It is our intent throughout to provide a simple & interesting picture of the central issues underlying modern estimation theory & practice Heuristic rather than theoretically elegant arguments are used extensively with emphasis on physical insights & key questions of practical importance Numerous illustrative examples many based on actual applications have been interspersed throughout the text to lead the student to a concrete understanding of the theoretical material The inclusion of problems with built-in answers at the end of each of the nine chapters further enhances the self-study potential of the text After a brief historical prelude the book introduces the mathematics underlying random process theory & state-space characterization of linear dynamic systems The theory & practice of optimal estimation is them presented including filtering smoothing & prediction Both linear & non-linear systems & continuous- & discrete-time cases are covered in considerable detail New results are described concerning the application of covariance analysis to non-linear systems & the connection between observers & optimal estimators The final chapters treat such practical & often pivotal issues as suboptimal structure & computer loading considerations This book is an outgrowth of a course given by TASC at a number of US Government facilities Virtually all of the members of the TASC technical staff have at one time & in one way or another contributed to the material contained in the work ...

Emphasizing application of knowledge active learning strategies critical thinking & evidence-based practice this updated 3rd Edition of Applied Pathophysiology A Conceptual Approach to the Mechanisms of Disease explores pathophysiology through the lens of body function concepts & what happens when function is altered through injury or disease This novel approach helps students understand that diseases are rarely confined to one body system & challenges them to apply what they've learned to a range of diseases rather than trying to memorize facts about specific conditions In the process they learn to think about pathophysiology in the same way practioners do in a clinical setting-by working from symptoms to the cause rather than the other way around The 3rd Edition features much that is new including a new chapter on mental illnesses new case studies in every chapter & a wide range of new clinically-focused features Updated Clinical models provide real-world examples of how pathophysiological concepts manifest themselves in the human body to help prepare students for practice New Just-in-time review sections refer students to online student resources & remediation to refresh their understanding of prerequisite A&P & Microbiology material New chapter-ending Case Studies (2-4 in every chapter) & related questions help students build critical thinking skills as they apply chapter material to real-world clinical scenarios New! Pathology Up Close features provide more detailed coverage of the cellular & tissue changes that accompany disease New! Clinical Practice features show students how they will apply what they are learning in real-world practice A new Chapter 11 on altered mood attention & behavior disorders prepares students for the mental illnesses they will encounter in practice Concept maps visually illustrate important interrelationships of key concepts making it easy for students to visualize how things fit together End-of-chapter learning tools include summaries practice exam questions & links to general web resources & chapter references From the Lab boxes help students understand common laboratory procedures & results Stop & Consider prompts challenge students to think beyond the information presented in the textbook Discussion & Application sections in every chapter help students gauge their understanding of what they've studied New!
