Multimodal Brain Image Analysis and Mathematical Foundations of Computational Anatomy
This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Multimodal Brain Image Analysis, MBAI 2019, and the 7th International Workshop on Mathematical Foundations of Computational Anatomy, MFCA 2019, held in conjunction with the 22nd International Conference on Medical Imaging and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2019, in Shenzhen, China, in October 2019. The 16 full papers presented at MBAI 2019 and the 7 full papers presented at MFCA 2019 were carefully reviewed and selected. The MBAI papers intend to move forward the state of the art in multimodal brain image analysis, in terms of analysis methodologies, algorithms, software systems, validation approaches, benchmark datasets, neuroscience, and clinical applications. The MFCA papers are devoted to statistical and geometrical methods for modeling the variability of biological shapes. The goal is to foster the interactions between the mathematical community around shapes and the MICCAI community around computational anatomy applications.
Nanoelectronic Materials
This book presents synthesis techniques for the preparation of low-dimensional nanomaterials including 0D (quantum dots), 1D (nanowires, nanotubes) and 2D (thin films, few layers), as well as their potential applications in nanoelectronic systems. It focuses on the size effects involved in the transition from bulk materials to nanomaterials; the electronic properties of nanoscale devices; and different classes of nanomaterials from microelectronics to nanoelectronics, to molecular electronics. Furthermore, it demonstrates the structural stability, physical, chemical, magnetic, optical, electrical, thermal, electronic and mechanical properties of the nanomaterials. Subsequent chapters address...
Paper Swordsmen
The martial arts novel is one of the most distinctive and widely-read forms of modern Chinese fiction. John Christopher Hamm offers the first in-depth English-language study of this fascinating and influential genre, focusing on the work of its undisputed twentieth-century master, Jin Yong.

This book, Management Information and Optoelectronic Engineering, is a collection of papers presented at the 2015 International Conference on Management, Information and Communication and the 2015 International Conference on Optics and Electronics Engineering which was held on October 24-25, 2015 in Xia Men, China. The book provides state-of-the-art research results and development activities in Optics and Electronics Engineering, Management, Information and Communication and will benefit researchers and practitioners in the field.
Public Health, Public Health Education, and their Future Prospects
A number of studies have pointed out that currently, medical schools may have failed to supply self-directed lifelong learners and qualified healthcare workers. Therefore, in recent years, the medical teaching modes have been consistently reformed. The new generation of novel education modes such as Research-Based Learning (RBL), Problem-Based Learning PBL), Team-Based Learning (TBL) have the characteristics of universality, interactivity, and promptness, which empower instructors and students to learn and grow together. Moreover, the reform of medical teaching modes has been significantly facilitated in the COVID19 era due to public’s rising awareness of public health and more obviously, pandemic prevention policies such as travel restrictions. For instance, many countries have launched remote teaching mode in order to provide consistent education service with high quality. These novel teaching modes can provide amelioration to the traditional education modes and may lead the education system to another prosperity.
Mechatronics and Automatic Control Systems
This book examines mechatronics and automatic control systems. The book covers important emerging topics in signal processing, control theory, sensors, mechanic manufacturing systems and automation. The book presents papers from the 2013 International Conference on Mechatronics and Automatic Control Systems in Hangzhou, held in China during August 10-11, 2013.
Nudging Choices Through Media
This book addresses the growing use of computerized systems to influence people’s decisions without their awareness, a significant but underappreciated sea-change in the way the world works. To assess these systems, this volume’s contributors explore the philosophical and ethical dimensions of algorithms that guide people’s behavior by nudging them toward choices preferred by systems architects. Particularly in an era of heightened awareness of bias and discrimination, these systems raise profound concerns about the morality of such activities. This volume brings together a diverse array of thinkers to critically examine these nudging systems. Not only are high-level perspectives prese...
Bone metastasis in the milieu of Osteoimmunology
Bone metastases are common in many cancers and associated with skeletal-related events such as spinal cord compression, fractures, pain, disability, and impaired quality of life. Bone metastasis is most prominent in breast, prostate, and lung cancer patients and is the leading cause of cancer-associated death. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts control each other’s functions to maintain normal bone homeostasis. In addition, bone remodeling is governed by the balanced activity of the bone and immune cells. Bone metastasis is a multistage process, and the bone microenvironment influences the seeding and colonization of the disseminated cancer cells. Disruption of bone homeostasis and immune population provides fertile soil to facilitate cancer cell seeding. Despite the advancement of our understanding to treat primary tumors, most of the treatments for bone metastasis are palliative. Proper understanding of the immune component of the bone and their involvement in bone metastasis niche formation will help to explore future directions of bone metastasis research.
