Proceedings of the ... Annual Conference on Computational Learning Theory

Computational Learning Theory

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th Annual Conference on Computational Learning Theory, COLT 2002, held in Sydney, Australia, in July 2002. The 26 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on statistical learning theory, online learning, inductive inference, PAC learning, boosting, and other learning paradigms.

Computational Learning Theory

This book is tailored for students and professionals as well as novices from other fields to mass spectrometry. It will guide them from the basics to the successful application of mass spectrometry in their daily research. Starting from the very principles of gas-phase ion chemistry and isotopic properties, it leads through the design of mass analyzers and ionization methods in use to mass spectral interpretation and coupling techniques. Step by step the readers will learn how mass spectrometry works and what it can do as a powerful tool in their hands. The book comprises a balanced mixture of practice-oriented information and theoretical background. The clear layout, a wealth of high-quality figures and a database of exercises and solutions, accessible via the publisher's web site, support teaching and learning.
