Henri Poincare (1854-1912) was one of the greatest scientists of his time, perhaps the last one to have mastered and expanded almost all areas in mathematics and theoretical physics. He created new mathematical branches, such as algebraic topology, dynamical systems, and automorphic functions, and he opened the way to complex analysis with several variables and to the modern approach to asymptotic expansions. He revolutionized celestial mechanics, discovering deterministic chaos. In physics, he is one of the fathers of special relativity, and his work in the philosophy of sciences is illuminat

Provides an applications-oriented introduction to robust regression and outlier detection, emphasising °high-breakdown° methods which can cope with a sizeable fraction of contamination. Its self-contained treatment allows readers to skip the mathematical material which is concentrated in a few sections. Exposition focuses on the least median of squares technique, which is intuitive and easy to use, and many real-data examples are given. Chapter coverage includes robust multiple regression, the special case of one-dimensional location, algorithms, outlier diagnostics, and robustness in relate

This reference provides biographical, historical, and critical information on Neo-Impressionist painting and its most significant painters. Neo-Impressionism, also called Divisionism and Pointillism, was one of the most innovative and startling late 19th-century French avant-garde styles. Over 2,000 books, articles, manuscripts, and audiovisual materials as well as chronologies, biographical sketches, and exhibition lists are cited. Also provided are both primary and secondary bibliographies for each artist. Secondary bibliographies capture details about each artist’s life and career, re
