Sustainable Development Goals and Institutions of Higher Education
This volume brings together both theoretical and case study based contributions to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Institutions of Higher Education (IHE), presenting an impactful combination of authors from both developing and developed countries. While most current publications addressing the SDGs and education focus on sustainable development in general and specific topics such as climate change or energy, this book attempts to accelerate the localisation of the SDGs by presenting opportunities and innovations offered in various universities and campuses regarding SDGs localisation. The book seeks to provide an important contribution to the global dialogue...
Entropy Measures for Data Analysis
Entropies and entropy-like quantities play an increasing role in modern non-linear data analysis. Fields that benefit from this application range from biosignal analysis to econophysics and engineering. This issue is a collection of papers touching on different aspects of entropy measures in data analysis, as well as theoretical and computational analyses. The relevant topics include the difficulty to achieve adequate application of entropy measures and the acceptable parameter choices for those entropy measures, entropy-based coupling, and similarity analysis, along with the utilization of entropy measures as features in automatic learning and classification. Various real data applications are given.
Educación superior pública: oportunidades que se crean
Es un texto que desde la dimensión cualitativa y cuantitativa explora las características de los estudiantes que, en las Instituciones de Educación Superior del municipio de Medellín - Colombia, financian sus estudios con dineros priorizados por las comunidades desde la estrategia de planeación local y presupuesto participativo.
Estudios de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad en América Latina. Balances y perspectivas
El Simposio 59, es la recopilación de textos presentados por investigadores y académicos de Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, España y México, en la tercera versión del encuentro internacional «Ciencia, tecnologías y culturas. Diálogo entre las disciplinas del conocimiento. Mirando al futuro de América Latina y el Caribe», realizado en la Universidad de Santiago de Chile, en enero de 2013. Allí, se abocó a la reflexión filosófica, teórico conceptual, así como también el análisis socio político de experiencias científico-tecnológicas particulares del continente americano. Las temáticas abordaron aspectos como la epistemología, historia política de la ciencia, perspectivas críticas sobre la práctica científica y tecnológica, análisis de discursos y prácticas CTS, sociología y política de la ciencia y la tecnología, educación y apropiación social de la ciencia y tecnología.
Advances in Nonlinear Speech Processing
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Nonlinear Speech Processing, NoLISP 2011, held in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, in November 2011. The purpose of the workshop is to present and discuss new ideas, techniques and results related to alternative approaches in speech processing that may depart from the main stream. The 33 papers presented together with 2 keynote talks were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in this book. The topics of NOLISP 2011 were non-linear approximation and estimation; non-linear oscillators and predictors; higher-order statistics; independent component analysis; nearest neighbors; neural networks; decision trees; non-parametric models; dynamics of non-linear systems; fractal methods; chaos modeling; and non-linear differential equations.
Advances in Artificial Intelligence – IBERAMIA 2022
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th Ibero-American Conference on Artificial Intelligence, IBERAMIA 2022, held in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, in November 2022. The 33 full and 4 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 67 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: applications of AI; ethics and smart city; green and sustainable AI; machine learning; natural language processing; robotics and computer vision; simulation and forecasting.
Advances in Computational Biology
This volume compiles accepted contributions for the 2nd Edition of the Colombian Computational Biology and Bioinformatics Congress CCBCOL, after a rigorous review process in which 54 papers were accepted for publication from 119 submitted contributions. Bioinformatics and Computational Biology are areas of knowledge that have emerged due to advances that have taken place in the Biological Sciences and its integration with Information Sciences. The expansion of projects involving the study of genomes has led the way in the production of vast amounts of sequence data which needs to be organized, analyzed and stored to understand phenomena associated with living organisms related to their evolution, behavior in different ecosystems, and the development of applications that can be derived from this analysis.
Materials Design and Applications II
This book highlights fundamental research on the design and application of engineering materials, and predominantly mechanical engineering applications. This area includes a wide range of technologies and materials, including metals, polymers, composites, and ceramics. Advanced applications include manufacturing cutting-edge materials, testing methods, and multi-scale experimental and computational aspects. The book introduces readers to a wealth of engineering applications in transport, civil, packaging and power generation.
Successful Innovation Systems
This book places a central question: why are some regions in the world more successful in innovation than others? It aims to increase readers ́ understanding of how innovation processes are accelerated or hindered by regional characteristics. A deep dive into differences of innovation ecosystems across global regions will provide a detailed mosaic of strengths and weaknesses. The audience will also learn to assess the resources and elements of regional innovation systems and to compare and contrast structures and processes in innovation management in Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. The speciality of the book lies in its focus on the patterns that are behind the development of many successful innovation regions and it defines the ingredients for right planning and policy development.
