Discovery Science
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Discovery Science, DS 2005, held in Singapore in October 2005, co-located with the International Conference on Algorithmic Learning Theory (ALT 2005). The 21 revised long papers and the 6 revised regular papers presented together with 9 project reports and 5 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions. The papers cover all issues in the area of automating scientific discovery or working on tools for supporting the human process of discovery in science.
River Basin Management
Many of the challenges facing farmers and human communities from hydrographical basins are not new. But, due to the fact that the nature and extents of the problems vary from one region to another and from one basin to another, the responses are highly diversified. There is no generally valid solution for all the problems. However, in addressing issues on ensuring the prevention or mitigation of the destructive consequences of flood damage or prolonged drought as for the optimal use of water by consumers, sustainable basin land use, biodiversity conservation, and environment protection as well, fourteen specialists and their colleagues present the state of the art in these important matters and new possible solutions to solve, identified from the scientific investigations undertaken.
Machine Learning
Machine Learning: A Constraint-Based Approach provides readers with a refreshing look at the basic models and algorithms of machine learning, with an emphasis on current topics of interest that includes neural networks and kernel machines. The book presents the information in a truly unified manner that is based on the notion of learning from environmental constraints. While regarding symbolic knowledge bases as a collection of constraints, the book draws a path towards a deep integration with machine learning that relies on the idea of adopting multivalued logic formalisms, like in fuzzy systems. A special attention is reserved to deep learning, which nicely fits the constrained- based appr...
Innovations in Machine Learning
Machine learning is currently one of the most rapidly growing areas of research in computer science. In compiling this volume we have brought together contributions from some of the most prestigious researchers in this field. This book covers the three main learning systems; symbolic learning, neural networks and genetic algorithms as well as providing a tutorial on learning casual influences. Each of the nine chapters is self-contained. Both theoreticians and application scientists/engineers in the broad area of artificial intelligence will find this volume valuable. It also provides a useful sourcebook for Postgraduate since it shows the direction of current research.
Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 4th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management, IC3K, held in Barcelona, Spain, in October 2012. The 29 best papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 347 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on knowledge discovery and information retrieval; knowledge engineering and ontology development; knowledge management and information sharing.
A Scientist: Journey of a Village Boy of Bihar, Bharat (India)
From ancient times to the present, India has been the birthplace of numerous remarkable scientists. The role models of average youth have shifted from scientists and ‘Gurus’ to individuals wielding power, fame, and wealth, such as politicians, celebrities, and influential government officials. With changing ‘Yugas,’ corruption has seeped into society, becoming the norm, and even academic institutions and their associated systems have not remained untouched by this persistent ailment. As a result, nurturing the next generation of scientists has been significantly impacted. Within the pages of this book unfolds the journey of a village boy from Bihar, India, who refused to let the flam...
International Handbook of Disaster Research
This handbook is a comprehensive source of information, analysis and directions in disaster studies. It goes beyond the oft-explored issues of management and science related to the topic and explores policies, governance, law and decision-making combined with the processes of implementation and enforcement, all the while integrating the latest science and technology updates related to the topic, such as artificial intelligence and early warning systems. It brings together studies which relate to sociology, politics and institutional economics, which work under the impact of resource availability, issues of leadership and international laws. Disasters are trans-boundary and disaster studie...
At the Threshold
This book examines the performance strategies used by contemporary Iranian artists and activists to reimagine “Iranian-ness” in the context of Iran’s local, regional, and global position. This study identifies the important social and political interventions made by theatrical and performance pieces, visual art, and electronic music that articulate and reformulate Iranian-ness by breaking away from fixed and constructed stereotypes projected on them by both the Islamic regime and Western power. This book explores the reception and context within which artworks become meaningful performative acts. Looking closely at the works of a notable female Iranian photographer, Shadi Ghadirian, in...
