In Euclidean geometry, constructions are made with ruler and compass. In projective geometry one never measures anything, instead, one relates one set of points to another by a projectivity. The concluding chapters show the connections among projective, Euclidean, and analytic geometry.

From 1976 to the beginning of the millennium-covering the quarter-century life span of this book and its predecessor-something remarkable has happened to market response research: it has become practice.

"...the great feature of the book is that anyone can read it without excessive head scratching...You'll find plenty here to keep you occupied, amused, and informed. -IAN STEWART, NEW SCIENTIST"...a delightful look at numbers and their roles in everything from language to flowers to the imagination."

This book begins with an exposition of the basic theory of vector spaces and proceeds to explain the fundamental structure theorem for linear maps, including eigenvectors and eigenvalues, quadratic and hermitian forms, diagnolization of symmetric, hermitian, and unitary linear maps and matrices, triangulation, and Jordan canonical form.

This book is based on the author's experience with calculations involving polynomial splines, presenting those parts of the theory especially useful in calculations and stressing the representation of splines as weighted sums of B-splines.

The work reviewed in this book represents the synthesis of two important developments in modelling of complex stochastic phenomena. The book gives a thorough and rigorous mathematical treatment of the underlying ideas, structures, and algorithms.

This Open Access volume explores the latest advancements and challenges in standardized methodologies, efficient code management, and scalable data processing of neuroimaging datasets. The chapters in this book are organized in four parts. Part One shows the researcher how to access and download large datasets, and how to compute at scale. Part Two covers best practices for working with large data, including how to build reproducible pipelines and how to use Git. Part Three looks at how to do structural and functional preprocessing data at scale, and Part Four describes various toolboxes for interrogating large neuroimaging datasets, including machine learning and deep learning approaches. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include the kind of detail and key advice from the specialists needed to get successful results in your laboratory.Authoritative and comprehensive, Methods for Analyzing Large Neuroimaging Datasets is a valuable resource that will help researchers obtain the practical knowledge necessary for conducting robust and reproducible analyses of large neuroimaging datasets.
