Struggle for Empire
Struggle for Empire provides the first comprehensive modern biography in English of the late Qing dynasty statesman, strategist, and military commander, Zuo Zongtang (1812-1885). A national hero in China, Zuo’s remarkable story remains understudied in the West. Author Kenneth Swope traces Zuo's unlikely rise from poverty and obscurity in rural Hunan province to become the most powerful Han Chinese official in Manchu China. Zuo embodied a new practical type of Chinese official, grounded in the study of military history and strategic geography, who realized that the secret to China’s survival was to both live up to traditional Confucian norms and expectations while also adapting science and technology from the West. Zuo also pushed for self-strengthening, building China’s first modern naval yard and setting up arsenals, silk factories, and publishing houses across China. Zuo also helped the Qing put down the greatest civil war in human history, the Taiping Rebellion.
Regulatory Networks in Stem Cells
Stem cells appear to be fundamental cellular units associated with the origin of multicellular organisms and have evolved to function in safeguarding the cellular homeostasis in organ t- sues. The characteristics of stem cells that distinguish them from other cells have been the fascinating subjects of stem cell research. The important properties of stem cells, such as ma- tenance of quiescence, self-renewal capacity, and differentiation potential, have propelled this exciting ?eld and presently form a common theme of research in developmental biology and medicine. The derivation of pluripotent embryonic stem cells, the prospective identi?cation of multipotent adult stem cells, and, more rec...
Neural Information Processing
The seven-volume set of LNCS 11301-11307, constitutes the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Neural Information Processing, ICONIP 2018, held in Siem Reap, Cambodia, in December 2018. The 401 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 575 submissions. The papers address the emerging topics of theoretical research, empirical studies, and applications of neural information processing techniques across different domains. The first volume, LNCS 11301, is organized in topical sections on deep neural networks, convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and spiking neural networks.
Victims, Perpetrators, and the Role of Law in Maoist China
Eine erstmalige Analyse maoistischer Justiz auf Basis von Originalfallakten, die aufgrund ihrer plastischen Details einen tiefen Einblick in die chinesische Rechts-, Politik- und Sozialgeschichte geben. Durch die Betonung der Akteuersebene wird, jenseits von Metadiskursen, der totalitäre Charakter der frühen Volksrepublik China und der mehr oder minder großer Spielraum von Angeklagten, Richtern und politischer Führung ausgelotet. Der Band versammelt chinesische, europäische und amerikanische Wissenschaftler, um gemeinsam eine Revision des bisherigen Forschungsstandes zu ermöglichen.
The Nature of Disaster in China
Unearths the forgotten history of a catastrophic flood, examining its profound impact upon the environment and society of modern China.
Artificial Intelligence Technologies and Applications
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming an inescapable part of modern life, and the fact that AI technologies and applications will inevitably bring about significant changes in many industries and economies worldwide means that this field of research is currently attracting great interest. This book presents the proceedings of ICAITA 2023, the 5th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Technologies and Applications, held as a hybrid event from 30 June to 2 July 2023 in Changchun, China. The conference provided an international forum for academic communication between experts and scholars in the field of AI, promoting the interchange of scientific information between pa...
Performance Art in China
Performance Art in China takes as its subject one of the most dynamic and controversial areas of experimental art practice in China. In his comprehensive study, Sydney-based theorist and art historian Thomas J. Berghuis introduces and investigates the idea of the "role of the mediated subject of the acting body in art," a notion grounded in the realization that the body is always present in art practice, as well as its subsequent, secondary representations. Through a series of in-depth case studies, Berghuis reveals how, during the past 25 years, Chinese performance artists have "acted out" their art, often in opposition to the principles governing correct behavior in the public domain. In addition to a 25-year chronology of events, a systematic index of places, names and key terms, as well as a bibliography and a glossary in English and Chinese, this study also offers the reader numerous previously unpublished photos and documents.
Advances in Neural Networks Isnn 2009
The three volume set LNCS 5551/5552/5553 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Neural Networks, ISNN 2009, held in Wuhan, China in May 2009. The 409 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 1.235 submissions. The papers are organized in 20 topical sections on theoretical analysis, stability, time-delay neural networks, machine learning, neural modeling, decision making systems, fuzzy systems and fuzzy neural networks, support vector machines and kernel methods, genetic algorithms, clustering and classification, pattern recognition, intelligent control, optimization, robotics, image processing, signal processing, biomedical applications, fault diagnosis, telecommunication, sensor network and transportation systems, as well as applications.
