HOLODECK architects works
Analytical thinking and holistic concepts Low-tech buildings with strong architectural identities Selected works from 25 years of international architectural practice HOLODECK architects work on a wide variety of projects, from urban development to exhibitions. Their impressive body of work is proof that sophisticated architecture need not ignore ecological and social issues. The latter are consciously reflected from concept to realization. For example, HOLODECK have developed strategic solutions as alternatives to single-family homes, apply a sensitive approach to existing structures, and design buildings that make consistent use of natural conditions such as passive solar energy, airflow, cross-ventilation, and natural lighting. This volume also reinterprets the typical architecture book. It consists of two separate yet connected parts; the first presents sketches, plans, studies and models, while the second features texts and lavish photo series.
Quantum Machine Learning
This book presents the research into and application of machine learning in quantum computation, known as quantum machine learning (QML). It presents a comparison of quantum machine learning, classical machine learning, and traditional programming, along with the usage of quantum computing, toward improving traditional machine learning algorithms through case studies. In summary, the book: Covers the core and fundamental aspects of statistics, quantum learning, and quantum machines. Discusses the basics of machine learning, regression, supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms, and artificial neural networks. Elaborates upon quantum machine learning models, quantum machine learning approaches and quantum classification, and boosting. Introduces quantum evaluation models, deep quantum learning, ensembles, and QBoost. Presents case studies to demonstrate the efficiency of quantum mechanics in industrial aspects. This reference text is primarily written for scholars and researchers working in the fields of computer science and engineering, information technology, electrical engineering, and electronics and communication engineering.
Digitale Pioniere als Schlüsselakteure ländlicher Governance
Zentrale Aufgaben von Kommunen in Deutschland umfassen die Gewährleistung der Daseinsvorsorge, des öffentlichen Verkehrs, Wirtschaftsförderung, Zugang zu ausreichender Breitbandinfrastruktur, gesundheitliche und soziale Betreuung und Zugang zu kulturellem Leben. Kommunen in ländlichen Regionen stehen gleichzeitig vor zahlreichen gesellschaftlichen, wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und politischen Herausforderungen. Neuartige Ansätze und innovative Akteure und Netzwerke werden daher im Kontext der Schaffung von sozialen oder digitalen Innovationen von den Kommunen als Antwort auf diese Herausforderungen begrüßt, stoßen aber auch teilweise auf Barrieren. In dem Sammelband wird von den Heraus...
Unbinding Gentility
A Choice Outstanding Academic Title for 2022 Hearing southern women in the pauses of history Southern women of all classes, races, and walks of life practiced music during and after the Civil War. Candace L. Bailey examines the history of southern women through the lens of these musical pursuits, uncovering the ways that music's transmission, education, circulation, and repertory help us understand its meaning in the women's culture of the time. Bailey pays particular attention to the space between music as an ideal accomplishment—part of how people expected women to perform gentility—and a real practice—what women actually did. At the same time, her ethnographic reading of binder’s volumes, letters and diaries, and a wealth of other archival material informs new and vital interpretations of women’s place in southern culture. A fascinating collective portrait of women's artistic and personal lives, Unbinding Gentility challenges entrenched assumptions about nineteenth century music and the experiences of the southern women who made it.
