Corpus Use in Cross-linguistic Research
Cross-linguistic research is a fruitful field of language inquiry that has benefited enormously from the use of corpora. As sources of linguistic data of various kinds and as tools for language processing, corpora have shaped the development of cross-linguistic research, enabling both language description and practical applications. This volume contains twelve studies that emphasize the usefulness and usability of parallel corpora in accurately exploring the structure and use of seven under-researched languages and language varieties. The first part emphasizes the role of corpus-based descriptive analyses at the lexicogrammatical and discursive levels, as a first step on the way towards concrete applications like translation or language teaching. The second part focuses on the role of parallel-corpus-based language processing techniques and applications that facilitate professional communication. This book will be of interest to scholars in contrastive linguistics, translation studies, discourse analysis, language teaching, and natural language processing.
Technocracy and Democracy in Latin America
Praised by some as islands of efficiency in a sea of unprofessional, politicized, and corrupt states, and criticized by others for removing wide areas of policy making from the democratic arena, technocrats have become prominent and controversial actors in Latin American politics. Through an in-depth analysis of economic and health policy in Colombia from 1958 to 2011 and in Peru from 1980 to 2011, Technocracy and Democracy in Latin America explains the source of these experts' power as well as the leverage they have across state policy sectors in Latin America.
Toletis
The trees are disappearing and the adults seem unconcerned. Toletis, his dog Amenophis, friends Claudia and Tutan are on a mission to find ingenious ways of replacing them and turning their little valley town, set deep in the mountains, lusciously green again.
Inorganic Reactions and Methods, The Formation of Bonds to Elements of Group IVB (C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) (Part 4)
For the first time the discipline of modern inorganic chemistry has been systematized according to a plan constructed by a council of editorial advisors and consultants, among them three Nobel laureates (E.O. Fischer, H. Taube and G. Wilkinson). Rather than producing a collection of unrelated review articles, the series creates a framework which reflects the creative potential of this scientific discipline. Thus, it stimulates future development by identifying areas which are fruitful for further research. The work is indexed in a unique way by a structured system which maximizes its usefulness to the reader. It augments the organization of the work by providing additional routes of access for specific compounds, reactions and other topics.
Quality Control of Herbal Medicines and Related Areas
The authors of this thematic issue provide a comprehensive summary of most recent knowledge and references on quality control in wide fields. Quality control is essential for natural products like natural medicine and related food products. In this issue fifteen chapters have been included, discussing in detail various aspects of quality control. It will certainly prove useful not only for phytochemical researchers, but also many scientists working in numerous fields. Much effort has been invested by the contributors to share current information. Without their efforts and input 'Quality Control of Herbal Medicine and Related Areas' could not exist.
Bajo el Cielo de América
10 premiados cronistas latinoamericanos convocados por la fundación América Solidaria, proponen un redescrubrimiento del continente a través de la narración de historias, a veces mínimas, que suelen ser invisibles. Su pluma las ilumina y las vuelve cercanas. Muy cercanas. El resultado está reunido en este libro: 10 crónicas que abordan realidades ignoradas en entornos asombrosos, situaciones dolorosas en comunidades dis´puestas a salir adelante o fortalezas que se duplican con el apoyo de voluntarios. Los invitamos a leerlas y a compartir de esta forma la celebración de los 15 años de trabajo de América Solidaria por cambiar la realidad del continente.
En busca del aula perdida
La pandemia COVID-19 colocó a cada ser humano ante riesgos y pérdidas, y amenazó con cortar lazos pedagógicos e interrumpir el ciclo lectivo. Pero el despliegue de una enorme fuerza de voluntad por parte de familiares y docentes logró impedirlo, en gran parte: hubo clases y aprendizajes, aunque también se produjo una nueva brecha de desigualdades en el estudiantado. Volver a las aulas ha sido la intención desde el inicio y la pregunta que atraviesa el retorno es qué escuela sucederá a esta experiencia: ¿cambiarán los modos de organizarse para enseñar y aprender? ¿Cambiarán las prioridades dentro de cada establecimiento? ¿Habrá nuevas situaciones conflictivas? ¿Surgirán nuevos enfoques? De todo eso habla este libro, por medio de testimonios de directivos de escuelas muy variadas y distantes, de niveles inicial, primario y secundario, que muestran su recorrido en tiempos de pandemia y prevén la etapa siguiente. En diálogo con ellos, Isabelino Siede analiza las tensiones que han atravesado la relación entre familias y escuelas durante el aislamiento social y el impacto que dejarán para el tiempo posterior.
Data Complexity in Pattern Recognition
Automatic pattern recognition has uses in science and engineering, social sciences and finance. This book examines data complexity and its role in shaping theory and techniques across many disciplines, probing strengths and deficiencies of current classification techniques, and the algorithms that drive them. The book offers guidance on choosing pattern recognition classification techniques, and helps the reader set expectations for classification performance.
Learning from Imbalanced Data Sets
This book provides a general and comprehensible overview of imbalanced learning. It contains a formal description of a problem, and focuses on its main features, and the most relevant proposed solutions. Additionally, it considers the different scenarios in Data Science for which the imbalanced classification can create a real challenge. This book stresses the gap with standard classification tasks by reviewing the case studies and ad-hoc performance metrics that are applied in this area. It also covers the different approaches that have been traditionally applied to address the binary skewed class distribution. Specifically, it reviews cost-sensitive learning, data-level preprocessing metho...
