Modeling, Analysis, and Visualization of Anisotropy (Mathematics and Visualization) - Hardcover

Hardcover

ISBN 10: 331961357X ISBN 13: 9783319613574

Publisher: Springer, 2017

Synopsis

This book focuses on the modeling, processing and visualization of anisotropy, irrespective of the context in which it emerges, using state-of-the-art mathematical tools. As such, it differs substantially from conventional reference works, which are centered on a particular application. It covers the following topics: (i) the geometric structure of tensors, (ii) statistical methods for tensor field processing, (iii) challenges in mapping neural connectivity and structural mechanics, (iv) processing of uncertainty, and (v) visualizing higher-order representations. In addition to original research contributions, it provides insightful reviews.

This multidisciplinary book is the sixth in a series that aims to foster scientific exchange between communities employing tensors and other higher-order representations of directionally dependent data. A significant number of the chapters were co-authored by the participants of the workshop titled Multidisciplinary Approaches to MultivaluedData: Modeling, Visualization, Analysis, which was held in Dagstuhl, Germany in April 2016.

It offers a valuable resource for those working in the field of multi-directional data, vital inspirations for the development of new models, and essential analysis and visualization techniques, thus furthering the state-of-the-art in studies involving anisotropy.
