El islam y la cultura occidental

En conclusión, diremos con convencimiento que Wolfgang Vogt y Celina Vázquez, en este libro, operan mediante presentación, explicación, argumentación y análisis valorativo, una especie de actualización a nivel altamente investigativo-científico, de la evolución de los temas de islam, las culturas islámicas (consideradas en Occidente como periféricas), la relación bilateral entre Occidente europeo y Oriente islámico, la mujer en el islam, la esencia y el postulado de la literatura y la idea inicial motivo de su creación, las literaturas nacionales o regionales, la religiosidad popular y el fenómeno de la integración en las sociedades occidentales. Tales procederes de los autores no solo expresan su visión sobre los fenómenos tratados, sino que ensanchan la comprensión de los receptores del libro sobre los mismos hechos alejándolos de generalidades arbitrarias, y ponen de manifiesto motivaciones y sentidos que conllevan esos temas de actualidad. En fin, este libro aborda con seriedad y disciplina temas que siguen nutriendo la historia cultural mundial por lo que, sin duda alguna, es una de las versiones más logradas en estas dos primeras décadas del siglo xxi.

Graph Representation Learning

Graph-structured data is ubiquitous throughout the natural and social sciences, from telecommunication networks to quantum chemistry. Building relational inductive biases into deep learning architectures is crucial for creating systems that can learn, reason, and generalize from this kind of data. Recent years have seen a surge in research on graph representation learning, including techniques for deep graph embeddings, generalizations of convolutional neural networks to graph-structured data, and neural message-passing approaches inspired by belief propagation. These advances in graph representation learning have led to new state-of-the-art results in numerous domains, including chemical sy...

The Physiological Ecology of Woody Plants

The efficient management of trees and other woody plants can be improved given an understanding of the physiological processes that control growth, the complex environmental factors that influence those processes, and our ability to regulate and maintain environmental conditions that facilitate growth. - Emphasizes genetic and environmental interactions that influence woody plant growth - Outlines responses of individual trees and tree communities to environmental stress - Explores cultural practices useful for efficient management of shade, forest, and fruit trees, woody vines, and shrubs

HOK

Since its founding in 1955, HOK has never been afraid to evolve. Its often subtle but always steady reinventions have created what today is an incredibly diverse practice. The firm's ability to connect designers across building types, design disciplines and regions of the world is unparalleled.Today, a huge variety of project types in every corner of the globe - from designing a corporate boardroom or suburban high school to planning an entire university or new city - are emerging from the intersection of many HOK minds and imaginations. HOK's global community of design thinkers has been galvanised by the increasingly urgent need to create a sustainable planet while satisfying an enormous spectrum of human activities.The projects in this book appear in architecture, interiors and planning categories. These inspiring built environments transcend their initial purposes to express timeless cultural, organisational and personal values. Also available in the Master Architect Series: ISBN 9781864702743 Mitchell Giurgola Architects ISBN 9781864702736 Gund Partnership ISBN 9781864703047 Wong & Ouyang

Federated Learning

This book provides a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to federated learning, ranging from the basic knowledge and theories to various key applications. Privacy and incentive issues are the focus of this book. It is timely as federated learning is becoming popular after the release of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Since federated learning aims to enable a machine model to be collaboratively trained without each party exposing private data to others. This setting adheres to regulatory requirements of data privacy protection such as GDPR. This book contains three main parts. Firstly, it introduces different privacy-preserving methods for protecting a federated lear...
