Practical Philosophy Of Ai-assistants, The: An Engineering-humanities Conversation
The Practical Philosophy of AI-Assistants presents a formal conversation between an AI engineer, Peter, and a humanities researcher, Suman. The book ensures that specialist concepts in AI research are made comprehensible to a humanities researcher, while humanities theories can be easily grasped by an AI engineer.The authors establish ground rules to design an AI-Assistant, that is, an AI system that could act as a personal friend, consultant and confidante for every individual, to be integrated into our daily lives. These rules apply to four large areas of AI development: recognition and identification, communication, explanation, and civility.In discussing these areas, this book provides an accessible account of the current state of AI research, as well as adding nuance to the underpinning assumptions informing the relevant technologies, reflecting on their social implications.The broader ideological objective of The Practical Philosophy of AI-Assistants is captured by the phrase 'practical philosophy', which expresses a commitment to bringing AI development to work towards a good life for all.
Socialization to Civil Society
Using a life history approach, looks at what influences citizens to participate in the voluntary associations that comprise and promote civil society.
Mathematical Methods for Protein Structure Analysis and Design
The papers collected in this volume reproduce contributions by leading sch- arstoaninternationalschoolandworkshopwhichwasorganizedandheldwith thegoaloftakinga snapshotofadiscipline undertumultuous growth. Indeed, the area of protein folding, docking and alignment is developing in response to needs for a mix of heterogeneous expertise spanning biology, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, and statistics, among others. Some of the problems encountered in this area are not only important for the scienti?c challenges they pose, but also for the opportunities they disclose intermsofmedicalandindustrialexploitation.

Systems Biology and Computational Proteomics
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of two joint RECOMB 2006 satellite events: the Second Annual Workshop on Systems Biology, RSB 2006, and the First Biennial Workshop on Computational Proteomics, RCP 2006, held in San Diego, CA, USA in December 2006. The papers cover various aspects of systems biology and explore the use of computational mass spectrometry in various proteomic applications.
Research in Computational Molecular Biology
This volume contains the papers presented at the 10th Annual International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology (RECOMB 2006), which was held in Venice, Italy, on April 2–5, 2006
Comparative Genomics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th RECOMB Comparative Genomics Satellite Workshop, RECOMB-CG 2006. The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 34 initial submissions. The papers address a broad variety of aspects and components of the field of comparative genomics, ranging from new quantitative discoveries about genome structure and process to theorems on the complexity of computational problems inspired by genome comparison.
Handbook on Development and Social Change
This Handbook provides an accessible critical review of the complex issues surrounding development and social change today. With chapters from recognized experts, examining economic, political and social aspects, and covering key topics and developing regions, it goes beyond current theory and sets out the debates which will shape an approach better suited to the modern world.
Biomedical Ambiguity
Steadily increasing numbers of Americans have been diagnosed with asthma in recent years, attracting the attention of biomedical researchers, including those searching for a genetic link to the disease. The high rate of asthma among African American children has made race significant to this search for genetic predisposition. One of the primary sites for this research today is Barbados. The Caribbean nation is considered optimal because of its predominantly black population. At the same time, the government of Barbados has promoted the country for such research in an attempt to take part in the biomedical future. In Biomedical Ambiguity, Ian Whitmarsh describes how he followed a team of gene...
