Praticamente desde os meus primeiros dias no Brasil, seguindo o parecer dos meus colegas, interessei-me pelo trabalho dos movimentos sociais nas cidades do interior. Nas grandes cidades os movimentos trabalhavam em favor dos trabalhadores desempregados ou que ganhavam um salário muito precário, e no interior, em zonas rurais, lutavam a favor da reforma agrária. Na medida em que a ditatura militar estava se aproximando de seu fim, e estes movimentos sociais começaram a surgir no seio da Igreja, fruto da opção preferencial e evangélica que a Igreja na América Latina fez em favor dos pobres, e surgiram também diversas pastorais como a Pastoral Operária (PO) e a Comissão Pastoral da T...
É com alegria que apresento o livro “Pensadores da Caminhada – 30 anos vividos nas Cebs”, do meu, do nosso amigo Pe. João Caruana, por acreditar poder contribuir para o avanço da reflexão cristã, para estudo e para um aprofundamento do significado ser uma discípula e ser um discípulo de Jesus Cristo e por revelar as Cebs como realmente sendo o sonho de nosso Deus. Na primeira parte, dois momentos, trajeto da caminhada de Caruana, experiências vividas e algumas de suas reflexões. Na segunda parte, mais de 30 entrevistas que relatam sobre a trajetória das Comunidades Eclesiais de Base, as Cebs no Brasil e na América latina. Reflexões e entrevistas com diversos pensadores, bis...
Practically since my first days in Brazil, on the advice of my colleagues, I became involved in the work of the social movements, both in the city and in the interior. Those in the city worked in favour of the workers, victims of precarious jobs and unemployment; those in the interior tried to bring about land reform. As these movements were cropping up when the military regime was approaching its end, within the Church, as a result of the Latin American Church’s Evangelical Option For The Poor’, the Pastoral Operaria (PO), and the Pastoral Land Commission (CPT) were created. The Pastoral Operaria supported the small and various trade unions, while the CPT supported the social movements ...
The field of machine learning has matured to the point where many sophisticated learning approaches can be applied to practical applications. Thus it is of critical importance that researchers have the proper tools to evaluate learning approaches and understand the underlying issues. This book examines various aspects of the evaluation process with an emphasis on classification algorithms. The authors describe several techniques for classifier performance assessment, error estimation and resampling, obtaining statistical significance as well as selecting appropriate domains for evaluation. They also present a unified evaluation framework and highlight how different components of evaluation are both significantly interrelated and interdependent. The techniques presented in the book are illustrated using R and WEKA, facilitating better practical insight as well as implementation. Aimed at researchers in the theory and applications of machine learning, this book offers a solid basis for conducting performance evaluations of algorithms in practical settings.
Morson and Dawson's Gastrointestinal Pathology is one of the 'Gold Standards' of pathology textbooks. It has been completely revised to incorporate the latest advances in this rapidly evolving field including the developments in gastric cancer and Helicobacter pylori and the revised classification of other common gastrointestinal conditions. This new edition features a wealth of new material presented in full colour for the first time.
Society, globally, has entered into what might be called the "service economy." Services now constitute the largest share of GDP in most countries and provide the major source of employment in both developed and developing countries. Services permeate all aspects of peoples’ lives and are becoming inseparable from most aspects of economic activity. "Quality management" has been a dominating managerial practice since World War II. With quality management initially associated with manufacturing industries, one might assume the relevance of quality management might decrease with the emergence of the service economy. To the contrary, the emergence of the service economy strengthened the import...
This two-volume set constitutes the refereed proceedings of the workshops which complemented the 19th Joint European Conference on Machine Learning and Knowledge Discovery in Databases, ECML PKDD, held in Würzburg, Germany, in September 2019. The 70 full papers and 46 short papers presented in the two-volume set were carefully reviewed and selected from 200 submissions. The two volumes (CCIS 1167 and CCIS 1168) present the papers that have been accepted for the following workshops: Workshop on Automating Data Science, ADS 2019; Workshop on Advances in Interpretable Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence and eXplainable Knowledge Discovery in Data Mining, AIMLAI-XKDD 2019; Workshop on ...
This is the 9th edition of the International Conference on Energy and Environment Research, ICEER 2022, took place in the middle of September, ISEP, Porto, Portugal (Hybrid). This book includes all the well-presented papers in ICEER 2022. The maturity of this conference series has now been reached, with a large number of participants from academia, as well as a few coming from the professional field. Linking together energy and environment research is not an easy task. However, it is now understood that these fields are interconnected and that the answer to the challenge of a sustainable future depends enormously on the willingness and capability of problem thinking in an integrated manner. This book presents the participants in ICEER 2022 contribution toward sustainability, through energy and environment research, thanks for all.
