This book constitutes the proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Modeling Decisions for Artificial Intelligence, MDAI 2016, held in Sant Julià de Lòria, Andorra, in September 2016. The 22 revised full papers presented together with three invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 36 submissions. Providing a forum for researchers to discuss models for decision and information fusion (aggregation operators) and their applications to AI, the papers address topics such as decision making, information fusion, social networks, data mining, and related subjects. Applications to data science and privacy technologies, as well as to real world problems are also discussed.

El material vitícola regional está experimentando un cambio sustancial en su composición y en su distribución espacial. Se incorporan variedades nuevas junto a otras autóctonas de indudable valor cultural, enológico y comercial. Sin embargo, la incidencia medioambiental de la variabilidad agrológica de cada entorno, manifiesta comportamientos distintos y como consecuencia aptitudes diferentes. Los programas de selección clonal pretenden concluir en un mejor conocimiento del material, de sus aptitudes y sobre todo de su estado sanitario. En este trabajo se ha apostado por la selección de material autóctono de gran interés en Castilla-La Mancha: las variedades Airén y Cencibel.
Parametric design and digital fabrication are enabling non-designers to mass produce non-standard, highly differentiated products – from shoes and tableware to furniture and even houses. The result of these newly available mass customization tools has been a ‘democratization’ of design. Mass Customization and Design Democratization is the first book to address this recent phenomenon. Demonstrating how the considerable potential of these tools can be realized in practice, it introduces essential technologies and design approaches and provides numerous examples of the latest, cutting edge work from leading design firms, manufacturers and thinkers. The book examines what mass customizatio...
In Gardens of the Roman Empire, the pioneering archaeologist Wilhelmina F. Jashemski sets out to examine the role of ancient Roman gardens in daily life throughout the empire. This study, therefore, includes for the first time, archaeological, literary, and artistic evidence about ancient Roman gardens across the entire Roman Empire from Britain to Arabia. Through well-illustrated essays by leading scholars in the field, various types of gardens are examined, from how Romans actually created their gardens to the experience of gardens as revealed in literature and art. Demonstrating the central role and value of gardens in Roman civilization, Jashemski and a distinguished, international team of contributors have created a landmark reference work that will serve as the foundation for future scholarship on this topic. An accompanying digital catalogue will be made available at: www.gardensoftheromanempire.org.
Publicada en 1990 y reeditada en 1999, Todo el amor en sus ojos es una novela sobre el movimiento estudiantil chileno. No sobre el que irrumpió en las calles en 2011, sino sobre el que bulle al interior de las universidades y los liceos a fines de los sesenta, y continúa clandestinamente durante los años más crudos de la dictadura militar. En los capítulos relativos al colegio, el narrador y protagonista (Valenzuela o Gorila) y sus compañeros de curso, además de organizarse políticamente, apodan a todo el que tenga la desventura de cruzarse en su camino. Pero la incontinencia rebautizadora del grupo es algo más que una muestra de la soez y productiva creatividad juvenil: es la neces...
