Sedentary behaviour – too much sitting as distinct from too little physical activity – is now recognised as an independent risk factor for several health outcomes and premature mortality. This is problematic as technological advancements in transportation, communications, workplaces, and domestic entertainment has created environments that encourage engagement in sedentary behaviour. Evidence from observational epidemiology shows that prolonged sitting is associated with increased risk of disease and adverse risk marker levels including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, some cancers, obesity, glucose tolerance, and lipids. Importantly, the associations between prolonged sitting a...
Blind Source Separation intends to report the new results of the efforts on the study of Blind Source Separation (BSS). The book collects novel research ideas and some training in BSS, independent component analysis (ICA), artificial intelligence and signal processing applications. Furthermore, the research results previously scattered in many journals and conferences worldwide are methodically edited and presented in a unified form. The book is likely to be of interest to university researchers, R&D engineers and graduate students in computer science and electronics who wish to learn the core principles, methods, algorithms and applications of BSS. Dr. Ganesh R. Naik works at University of Technology, Sydney, Australia; Dr. Wenwu Wang works at University of Surrey, UK.
This book reports on the latest advances in concepts and further developments of principal component analysis (PCA), addressing a number of open problems related to dimensional reduction techniques and their extensions in detail. Bringing together research results previously scattered throughout many scientific journals papers worldwide, the book presents them in a methodologically unified form. Offering vital insights into the subject matter in self-contained chapters that balance the theory and concrete applications, and especially focusing on open problems, it is essential reading for all researchers and practitioners with an interest in PCA.
Advancements in digital technology continue to expand the image science field through the tools and techniques utilized to process two-dimensional images and videos. Image Processing: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications presents a collection of research on this multidisciplinary field and the operation of multi-dimensional signals with systems that range from simple digital circuits to computers. This reference source is essential for researchers, academics, and students in the computer science, computer vision, and electrical engineering fields.
Natural products present in the plant and animal kingdom offer a huge diversity of chemical structures, which are the result of biosynthetic processes that have been modulated over the millennia through genetic effects. With the rapid developments in spectroscopic techniques and accompanying advances in high-throughput screening techniques, it has become possible to isolate and then determine the structures and biological activity of natural products rapidly, thus opening up to the pharmaceutical industry exciting opportunities in the field of new drug development. The series covers all of the above as well as the synthesis, testing and recording of the medicinal properties of natural products. - Describes the chemistry of bioactive natural products - Contains contributions by leading authorities in the field - A valuable source for researchers in natural product and medicinal chemistry
