序言

最近在看Introduction to Statistical Pattern Recognition ,Fukunaga,Keinosuke[1]2nd Elsevier Academic Press,1999.pdf

这个书不错，顺便参试翻译下。

 

This book presents an introduction to statistical pattern recognition.

这本书主要介绍了统计模式识别。
Pattern recognition in general covers a wide range of problems,

一般而言模式识别包含了很多要处理的领域，
and it is hard to find a unified view or approach. It is applied to

很难找到统一的观点或方法。它被应用到工程领域，
engineering problems, such as character readers and waveform analysis,

比如字符识别和波形分析，
as well as to brain modeling in biology and psychology. However,

以及生理学和心理学中的脑模型。
statistical decision and estimation, which are the subjects of this book,

但，本书主要讨论统计决策和统计估计，
are regarded as fundamental to the study of pattern recognition. Statistical

这些内容是学习模式识别的基础。
decision and estimation are covered in various texts on mathematical

统计分析和估计被很多书所涉及，
statistics, statistical communication, control theory, and so on. But

如数学上的统计学，统计通信，控制理论等。
obviously each field has a different need and view. So that workers in

显然，每个领域都有不同的需求和观点。
pattern recognition need not look from one book to another, this book is

因此，模式识别领域的工作人员无需看所有的书，
organized to provide the basics of these statistical concepts from the
viewpoint of pattern recognition.

这本书提供了主要的模式识别所需的统计学概念。
The material of this book has been taught in a graduate course at
Purdue University and also in short courses offered in a number of
locations. Therefore, it is the author’s hope that this book will serve as a
text for introductory courses of pattern recognition as well as a reference
book for the workers in the field.
