Activity, Behavior, and Healthcare Computing
Activity, Behavior, and Healthcare Computing relates to the fields of vision and sensor-based human action or activity and behavior analysis and recognition. As well as a series of methodologies, the book includes original methods, exploration of new applications, excellent survey papers, presentations on relevant datasets, challenging applications, ideas and future scopes with guidelines. Featuring contributions from top experts and top research groups globally related to this domain, the book covers action recognition, action understanding, gait analysis, gesture recognition, behavior analysis, emotion and affective computing, healthcare, dementia, nursing, Parkinson’s disease, and related areas. It addresses various challenges and aspects of human activity recognition – both in sensor-based and vision-based domains. This is a unique edited book covering both domains in the field of activity and behavior.

Fundamentals of Bank Risk Management
Banking today has become unduly complex because new forms of risk such as technological, compliance and reputational risks are evolving and growing. They amplify the fundamental risks inherent in any bank – those of credit, market, operational and liquidity. While established concepts and principles of risk management flourish, new prescribed practices such as those of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision continually unfold over the years. All in all, the discipline can appear complicated to many. Fortunately, there is universal consensus as to what constitutes sound risk management applicable to banks everywhere. Bank regulators and banks themselves are urging that staff, at all lev...
Biophysical Methods for Diagnosing Human Tissue Anomalies
Medical diagnosis of tissue anomalies, particularly cancer, is often limited by the constraints of current imaging technologies. This book introduces two approaches to address this issue: the imaging and the non-imaging methods. In the imaging category, the book unveils a pioneering technique based on radio tomosynthesis. Initially proven effective in detecting breast anomalies, this imaging method is now under evaluation for its potential in identifying brain anomalies. For non-imaging diagnostics, it delves into Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), a technique known for its speed and reliability. The book demonstrates its successful application in diagnosing a range of cancers, including oral, uterine, ovarian, gastrointestinal, colorectal, and skin cancers. Furthermore, it explores its utility in predicting embryo quality and assessing pressure injuries. To augment these methods, the book employs machine learning algorithms, evaluating their efficacy in creating discriminative models for tissue anomalies.
Image Processing and Intelligent Computing Systems
There is presently a drastic growth in multimedia data. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we observed that images helped doctors immensely in the rapid detection of Covid-19 infection in patients. There are many critical applications in which images play a vital role. These applications use raw image data to extract some useful information about the world around us. The quick extraction of valuable information from raw images is one challenge that academicians and professionals face in the present day. This is where image processing comes into action. Image processing’s primary purpose is to get an enhanced image or extract some useful information from raw image data. Therefore, there is a maj...

Health Economics & Public Health Book | Dr. Rafia Rahman
There is intimate connection with health and economics. Economy give stability to keep positive health. As investment on health depend on economic status and this is for individual and household. Beside this tools of economics assist health policy makers, managers and trusty to make effective plan and get highest efficiency. So, it’s very crucial to know basic reciprocation of economics role on health. This book discuss tools of economics along with health. like production of health, investment on health, health market, medical care prices, equity, healthcare service provides role, disability adjusted life, quality adjusted life, substitution in healthcare services, healthcare evaluation in public health, happiness, challenges and failure issues in health sector, international actions to keep positive state of health and health transformation decision(value based healthcare) of WHO.
