In this book, lichens collected in 2015 and 2016 in the Brazilian states Amapá, Tocantins and some from Pará and São Paulo are treated, including several species that were not illustrated before. Pará is one of the largest states in the Amazon. Some specimens are illustrated here from near the border of this state with Manahão. Amapá and Tocantins are tropical states in Northern Brazil. Amapá is the only Brazilian state that lies largely in the Northern Hemisphere. For many tropical species that were described from Brazil, it is their only known occurence on the Northern Hemisphere. The natural vegetation of Amapá is tropical rainforest; in Tocantins it is partly tropical rainforest, partly Cerrado with gallery forests.
Controlling, measuring, and "designing" the color of food are critical concerns in the food industry, as the appeal of food is chiefly determined visually, with color the most salient visual aspect. In 2010 at the International Color Association Interim Meeting held in Mar del Plata, Argentina, a multidisciplinary panel of food experts gathered to discuss the importance of color in food from perspectives ranging from chemistry to psychology to engineering. Select individuals from this elite symposium were invited to expand upon their presentations for publication in Color in Food: Technological and Psychophysical Aspects. The thematic scope of this volume comprises issues related to color re...
Soft computing is a new, emerging discipline rooted in a group of technologies that aim to exploit the tolerance for imprecision and uncertainty in achieving solutions to complex problems. The principal components of soft computing are fuzzy logic, neurocomputing, genetic algorithms and probabilistic reasoning.This volume is a collection of up-to-date articles giving a snapshot of the current state of the field. It covers the whole expanse, from theoretical foundations to applications. The contributors are among the world leaders in the field.
We never create anything, We discover and reproduce. The Twelfth International Conference on Industrial and Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems has a distinguished theme. It is concerned with bridging the gap between the academic and the industrial worlds of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Expert Systems. The academic world is mainly concerned with discovering new algorithms, approaches, and methodologies; however, the industrial world is mainly driven by profits, and concerned with producing new products or solving customers’ problems. Ten years ago, the artificial intelligence research gap between academia and industry was very broad. Recently, this ga...
This book presents the proceedings of the 24th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI 2020), held in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, from 29 August to 8 September 2020. The conference was postponed from June, and much of it conducted online due to the COVID-19 restrictions. The conference is one of the principal occasions for researchers and practitioners of AI to meet and discuss the latest trends and challenges in all fields of AI and to demonstrate innovative applications and uses of advanced AI technology. The book also includes the proceedings of the 10th Conference on Prestigious Applications of Artificial Intelligence (PAIS 2020) held at the same time. A record number of ...
The LNAI 12299 constitutes the papers of the 18th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, AIME 2020, which will be held online in August 2020. The 42 full papers presented together with 1short papers in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 103 submissions. The AIME 2020 goals were to present and consolidate the international state of the art of AI in biomedical research from the perspectives of theory, methodology, systems, and applications.
The World Cup is the biggest stage in international soccer, and the 2022 edition in Qatar will be no different. A total of 32 teams will compete for the title, with 64 matches taking place across eight stadiums in the country. The World Cup will be held in Qatar from November 21 to December 18, 2022. It will be the first World Cup held in the Middle East and the first World Cup held in an Islamic country. Qatar was selected as the host country by FIFA's Executive Committee on December 2, 2010. There is no denying that Qatar is a deserving host country. It has the financial resources to build the infrastructure needed to host a World Cup, and it has a proven track record of delivering large-s...
