Audiovisual translation is the fastest growing strand within translation studies. This book addresses the need for more robust theoretical frameworks to investigate emerging text- types, address new methodological challenges (including the compilation, analysis and reproduction of audiovisual data), and understand new discourse communities bound together by the production and consumption of audiovisual texts. In this clear, user- friendly book, Luis Pérez-González introduces and explores the field, presenting and critiquing key concepts, research models and methodological approaches. Features include: • introductory overviews at the beginning of each chapter, outlining aims and relevant ...
Researchers and professionals in the field will find the papers in this new volume essential reading. Topically arranged, they cover a multitude of subjects, from new steganographic schemes to computer security and from watermarking to fingerprinting. Complete with online files and updates, this fascinating book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Information Hiding, IH 2007, held in Saint Malo, France, in June 2007.
The Oxford Handbook of The Auditory Brainstem provides an introduction as well as an in-depth reference to the organization and function of ascending and descending auditory pathways in the mammalian brainstem. Individual chapters are organized along the auditory pathway beginning with the cochlea and ending with the auditory midbrain. Each chapter provides an introduction to the respective area, and summarizes our current knowledge before discussing disputes and challenges the field currently faces. A major emphasis throughout this book is on the numerous forms of plasticity that are increasingly observed in many areas of the auditory brainstem. Several chapters focus on neuronal modulation...
This book constitutes the revised post-conference proceedings of the 15th International Workshop on Digital Forensics and Watermarking, IWDW 2016, held in Beijing, China, in September 2016. The 45 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions. The contributions are organized in topical sections on digital forensics, visual cryptography, reversible data hiding, and steganography and steganalysis.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Digital Watermarking, IWDW 2008, held in Busan, Korea, in November 2008. The 36 regular papers included in the volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 62 submissions. Areas of interest to the conference are mathematical modeling of embedding and detection; information theoretic, stochastic aspects of data hiding; security issues, including attacks and counter-attacks; combination of data hiding and cryptography; optimum watermark detection and reliable recovery; estimation of watermark capacity; channel coding techniques for watermarking; large-scale experimental tests and benchmarking; new statistical and perceptual models of content; reversible data hiding; data hiding in special media; data hiding and authentication; steganography and steganalysis; data forensics; copyright protection, DRM, and forensic watermarking; and visual cryptography.
The first edition of Bioactive Compounds from Natural Sources was published in a period of renewed attention to biologically active compounds of natural origin. This trend has continued and intensified—natural products are again under the spotlight, in particular for their possible pharmacological applications. Largely focusing on natural products as lead compounds in drug discovery, Bioactive Compounds from Natural Sources, Second Edition: Natural Products as Lead Compounds in Drug Discovery is actually a completely new volume containing surveys of selected recent advances in an interdisciplinary area covering chemistry of natural products, medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, and other rel...
th It is our great pleasure to present this volume of the proceedings of the 10 edition of Information Hiding (IH 2008). The conference was held in Santa Barbara - the Ame- can Riviera, California, USA, during May 19–21, 2008. It was organized by three Santa Barbarans on fire, from both industry (Mayachitra) and academia (UCSB). Over the years, Information Hiding (IH) has established itself as a premier forum for presenting research covering various aspects of information hiding. Continuing the tradition, this year, we provide a balanced program including topics such as anonymity and privacy, forensics, steganography, watermarking, fingerprinting, other hiding domains, and novel applicatio...
The International Symposium on Hearing is a highly-prestigious, triennial event where world-class scientists present and discuss the most recent advances in the field of hearing research in animals and humans. Presented papers range from basic to applied research, and are of interest neuroscientists, otolaryngologists, psychologists, and artificial intelligence researchers. Basic Aspects of Hearing: Physiology and Perception includes the best papers from the 2012 International Symposium on Hearing. Over 50 chapters focus on the relationship between auditory physiology, psychoacoustics, and computational modeling.
