Poverty as Subsistence
Poverty as Subsistence explores the "propertizing" land reform policy that the World Bank advocated throughout the transitioning countries of Eurasia, expecting poverty reduction to result from distributing property titles over agricultural land to local (rural) populations. China's early 1980s land reform offered support for this expectation, but while the spread of propertizing reform to post-communist Eurasia created numerous "subsistence" smallholders, it failed to stimulate entrepreneurship or market-based production among the rural poor. Varga argues that the World Bank advocated a simplified version of China's land reform that ignored a key element of successful reforms: the smallholders' immediate environment, the structure of actors and institutions determining whether smallholders survive and grow in their communities. With concrete insights from analysis of the land reform program throughout post-communist Eurasia and multisited fieldwork in Romania and Ukraine, this book details how and why land reform led to subsistence and the mechanisms underpinning informal commercialization.
Medical Computer Vision
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the International Workshop on Medical Computer Vision, MCV 2010, held in Beijing, China, in September 2010 as a satellite event of the 13th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2010. The 10 revised full papers and 11 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 initial submissions. The papers explore the use of modern image recognition technology in tasks such as semantic anatomy parsing, automatic segmentation and quantification, anomaly detection and categorization, data harvesting, semantic navigation and visualization, data organization and clustering, and general-purpose automatic understanding of medical images.
Medical Image Understanding and Analysis
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th Conference on Medical Image Understanding and Analysis, MIUA 2020, held in July 2020. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 29 full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions. They were organized according to following topical sections: image segmentation; image registration, reconstruction and enhancement; radiomics, predictive models, and quantitative imaging biomarkers; ocular imaging analysis; biomedical simulation and modelling.
Articulated Motion and Deformable Objects
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Articulated Motion and Deformable Objects, AMDO 2014, held in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, in July 2014. The 18 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions. The conference dealt with the following topics: geometric and physical deformable models; motion analysis; articulated models and animation; modeling and visualization of deformable models; deformable model applications; motion analysis applications; single or multiple human motion analysis and synthesis; face modeling, tracking, recovering and recognition models; virtual and augmented reality; haptics devices; biometric techniques.
The War for England's Shores
The War for England's Shores examines the Kriegsmarine's S-Boat offensive along the English Channel and the North Sea from 1940 to 1945, together with British and, later, Allied responses to nullify that threat. Very fast, and armed with torpedoes and mines, S-Boats posed a serious threat to the convoys that were forced to run close along the British coast on a daily basis. Despite the significance of this campaign and the real threat to the whole British war economy, it has been, until now, strangely overlooked by historians. Indeed, the book highlights issues around the maritime identity of those states and navies that see themselves in oceanic terms, at the expense of engagement with, and...
Best Practice Guide on the Control of Arsenic in Drinking Water
Arsenic in drinking water derived from groundwater is arguably the biggest environmental chemical human health risk known at the present time, with well over 100,000,000 people around the world being exposed. Monitoring the hazard, assessing exposure and health risks and implementing effective remediation are therefore key tasks for organisations and individuals with responsibilities related to the supply of safe, clean drinking water. Best Practice Guide on the Control of Arsenic in Drinking Water, covering aspects of hazard distribution, exposure, health impacts, biomonitoring and remediation, including social and economic issues, is therefore a very timely contribution to disseminating us...
