Editorial Reviews

A self-study textbook for readers with the mathematical background of a sophomore student of engineering or science. Describes various forms of representing information, and establishes that both recognition and learning are transformations of those representations. The subsequent sections, on recognition and on learning, are self-contained. First published in Japanese in 1989. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
