About the author

Timothy Masters received a PhD in mathematical statistics with a specialization in numerical computing. Since then he has continuously worked as an independent consultant for government and industry. His early research involved automated feature detection in high-altitude photographs while he developed applications for flood and drought prediction, detection of hidden missile silos, and identification of threatening military vehicles. Later he worked with medical researchers to develop computer algorithms for distinguishing between benign and malignant cells in needle biopsies. For the last twenty years he has focused primarily on automated financial market trading systems. He has authored numerous books on practical applications of neural networks and on developing and testing automated market trading systems.

In addition to his technical work, Timothy Masters is the author of two novels. Red Dust and Bones draws on his scientific background to create a hard-science-fiction mystery about humanity's first outpost on Mars and a discovery that could change our understanding of life itself. His other novel, Ixinia, ventures into fantasy.
