Does Overseas Experience Matter?
The book explores the academic characteristics, career development, and impacts of “foreignness” of Chinese overseas returnees in research universities. It provides valuable insights into the international mobility of academics and the challenges and opportunities that returnee scholars face in terms of research, teaching, international exchange, income, academic promotion, job satisfaction, and career mobility in their academic careers. Using first-hand large-scale survey data, the author presents quantitative analyses of the international mobility of Chinese academics at the individual level. She evaluates the impact of overseas experience on academic career development, and further proposes practical policy suggestions to attract and retain returnee talent in academia in China. The book’s findings have important implications for policy-makers, university administrators, and academics who seek to address the challenges and opportunities of international academic careers and promote the internationalization of research universities in China and beyond.
Advances in Machine Learning/Deep Learning-based Technologies
As the 4th Industrial Revolution is restructuring human societal organization into, so-called, “Society 5.0”, the field of Machine Learning (and its sub-field of Deep Learning) and related technologies is growing continuously and rapidly, developing in both itself and towards applications in many other disciplines. Researchers worldwide aim at incorporating cognitive abilities into machines, such as learning and problem solving. When machines and software systems have been enhanced with Machine Learning/Deep Learning components, they become better and more efficient at performing specific tasks. Consequently, Machine Learning/Deep Learning stands out as a research discipline due to its w...
Imagining Kurdistan
From the First Gulf War to the present upheaval in Syria, the Kurdish question has been a crucial issue within the Middle East region and in international politics. Spread across several countries, the Kurds constitute the largest stateless nation in the world. In this context, a striking question arises: how are Kurdish identity and the idea of the homeland - both as a symbol and as territorial space - constructed in writings from Turkish Kurdistan and its diaspora? Through a comparative analysis of Kurdish writing, Ozlem Galip here provides the first comprehensive look at modern Kurdish literature. Drawing on theories of space and collective memory and exploring the use of the historical past and personal memories in the literature of stateless nations, this book analyses the construction of the imaginary homeland and the concept of Kurdish identity.
Coherent Multidimensional Spectroscopy
This book will fulfill the needs of time-domain spectroscopists who wish to deepen their understanding of both the theoretical and experimental features of this cutting-edge spectroscopy technique. Coherent Multidimensional Spectroscopy (CMDS) is a state-of-the-art technique with applications in a variety of subjects like chemistry, molecular physics, biochemistry, biophysics, and material science. Due to dramatic advancements of ultrafast laser technologies, diverse multidimensional spectroscopic methods utilizing combinations of THz, IR, visible, UV, and X-ray radiation sources have been developed and used to study real time dynamics of small molecules in solutions, proteins and nucleic acids in condensed phases and membranes, single and multiple excitons in functional materials like semiconductors, quantum dots, and solar cells, photo-excited states in light-harvesting complexes, ions in battery electrolytes, electronic and conformational changes in charge or proton transfer systems, and excess electrons and protons in water and biological systems.
Novel Physical Processing of Starch-Based Products
From the perspective of physical action and materials science, this book reviews the structural modification of starch and evaluates novel physical processing of starch-based products. The contributors systematically explain the multi-scale structures of starches and explore various treatments of starch and starch-based materials, including hydrothermal treatment, high-pressure treatment, extrusion treatment, electric field treatment, microwave treatment, ultrasonic treatment, cold plasma treatment, and 3D printing. By thoroughly analyzing and summarizing the structural control of starch, they aim to obtain starch-based products with better physicochemical properties and texture. Furthermore, their industrial applications for future food supply are also demonstrated. This book will benefit researchers and graduate students in the fields of starch, starch-based materials, and food and non-food processing.
I'm Called By a Beautiful Cop
He had unwittingly become the game's biggest boss after staying in the game. For three days he had suddenly been summoned back to reality by a policewoman, the game backpack was still there the props were still there the gold coins were still there and most importantly the skills within the game were still there with so many heaven defying things in the real world who dares to provoke me.

Developing of a Novel Integrated MCDM MULTIMOOSRAL Approach for Supplier Selection
The main aim of the article is to propose a new multiple criteria decision-making approach for selecting alternatives, the newly-developed MULTIMOOSRAL approach, which integrates advantages of the three well-known and prominent multiple-criteria decision-making methods: MOOSRA, MOORA, and MULTIMOORA. More specifically, the MULTIMOOSRAL method has been further upgraded with an approach that can be clearly seen in the well-known WASPAS and CoCoSo methods, which rely on the integration of weighted sum and weighted product approaches.
