Neural Networks for Robotics
The book offers an insight on artificial neural networks for giving a robot a high level of autonomous tasks, such as navigation, cost mapping, object recognition, intelligent control of ground and aerial robots, and clustering, with real-time implementations. The reader will learn various methodologies that can be used to solve each stage on autonomous navigation for robots, from object recognition, clustering of obstacles, cost mapping of environments, path planning, and vision to low level control. These methodologies include real-life scenarios to implement a wide range of artificial neural network architectures.
Retos del Estado constitucional: transparencia y combate a la corrupción.
Entre los nuevos problemas que enfrenta el Estado constitucional de derecho destaca la corrupción. Este mal ha lacerado las democracias contemporáneas, ya que su impacto negativo no se circunscribe al ámbito económico, sino que afecta el funcionamiento del Estado, debilita la legitimidad institucional y reduce la calidad de vida de todos. Es un fenómeno que se extiende en todas latitudes y se encuentra lejos de ser exclusivo de los países cuyas democracias no se han consolidado o de aquellos en los que ni siquiera se visibiliza. Así, es fundamental fortalecer el combate a la corrupción, siendo necesario para la garantía de los derechos humanos y el afianzamiento de las democracias. Por ello, es un tema de actualidad cuyo análisis requiere de todos los sectores, a fin de ofrecer respuestas que abonen a los logros alcanzados. Con esa intención surge la idea de publicar el presente libro, como espacio plural e interdisciplinario que acoge las voces de personas expertas y especialistas, quienes desde una visión crítica nutren el debate en la materia y ofrecen propuestas que abonen al debate.
Dilemas ambientais-urbanos em duas metrópoles latino americanas
Esta obra contribui para refletir sobre as intempéries naturais e os impactos ambientais ocasionados pela ação humana sobre duas grandes cidades mundiais, São Paulo e Cidade do México. Apresenta análises sobre diferentes aspectos que se tornaram grandes dilemas ambientais-urbanos em cidades que cresceram, mas que não foram estruturadas para receber a quantidade de pessoas que ali habitam ou que por ali passam todos os dias e todo o fluxo decorrente delas. Por meio dos estudos é possível perceber que a trajetória de ambas as cidades a partir da segunda metade do século XX, se aproximam quanto aos problemas e a complexidade, bem como à emergência da questão ambiental como uma dimensão transversal e urgente.
Democracy in Practice
In spite of the expanding role of public participation in environmental decisionmaking, there has been little systematic examination of whether it has, to date, contributed toward better environmental management. Neither have there been extensive empirical studies to examine how participation processes can be made more effective. Democracy in Practice brings together, for the first time, the collected experience of 30 years of public involvement in environmental decisionmaking. Using data from 239 cases, the authors evaluate the success of public participation and the contextual and procedural factors that lead to it. Thomas Beierle and Jerry Cayford demonstrate that public participation has...
A Revision of the Dulcamaroid Clade of Solanum L. (Solanaceae)
This volume is a monograph of the 47 species of the Dulcamaroid clade of the large and diverse genus Solanum. Species in the group occur in North, Central and South America, and in Europe and Asia. The group is most species-rich in Peru and Brazil, and three of the component species, Solanum laxum of Brazil, Solanum seaforthianum of the Caribbean and and Solanum crispum of Chile are cultivated in many parts of the world. All species are illustrated and a distribution map of each is provided. All names are typified and nomenclatural and bibliographic details for all typifications presented. One new species from Ecuador is described. The monograph is the first complete taxonomic treatment of these species since the worldwide monograph of Solanum done by the French botanist Michel-Felix Dunal in 1852.
Monuments, Empires, and Resistance
From AD 1550 to 1850, the Araucanian polity in southern Chile was a center of political resistance to the intruding Spanish empire. In this book, Tom D. Dillehay examines the resistance strategies of the Araucanians and how they used mound building and other sacred monuments to reorganize their political and culture life in order to unite against the Spanish. Drawing on anthropological research conducted over three decades, Dillehay focuses on the development of leadership, shamanism, ritual, and power relations. His study combines developments in social theory with the archaeological, ethnographic, and historical records. Both theoretically and empirically informed, this book is a fascinating account of the only indigenous ethnic group to successfully resist outsiders for more than three centuries and to flourish under these conditions.
