This commemorative volume honors the contributions of Prof. Joseph F. Hair, Jr., who through his writings, leadership and mentoring has had a profound influence on marketing and other fields of business research. He is widely known for sidestepping mathematically complex ways of teaching statistical approaches with an eye toward making the tools accessible to the average behavioral researcher. Joe is also a bona fide researcher whose work has had a massive impact on marketing and business research in general. The book provides revealing insights on his works and acknowledges his role as an outstanding teacher and mentor who has shaped generations of researchers.
The key idea behind active learning is that a machine learning algorithm can perform better with less training if it is allowed to choose the data from which it learns. An active learner may pose "queries," usually in the form of unlabeled data instances to be labeled by an "oracle" (e.g., a human annotator) that already understands the nature of the problem. This sort of approach is well-motivated in many modern machine learning and data mining applications, where unlabeled data may be abundant or easy to come by, but training labels are difficult, time-consuming, or expensive to obtain. This book is a general introduction to active learning. It outlines several scenarios in which queries m...

This book is a complete guide to the use of ultrasound in critical care. Beginning with an overview of ultrasound and its applications, the next chapters discuss basic physics of ultrasound, modes of ultrasonography, and Doppler imaging. The following sections cover the use of ultrasound in different critical care situations including for vascular access, in acute respiratory distress syndrome, for cardiac evaluation, in neurocritical care, in the ICU, and more. The book concludes with clinical case scenarios and guidance on infection control and legal issues in ICU sonography. The comprehensive text is further enhanced by more than 300 ultrasound images, figures and tables to assist learning. Key points Comprehensive guide to the use of ultrasound in critical care Includes discussion on basic physics and modes of ultrasound Provides clinical case scenarios and guidance on infection control Features more than 300 ultrasound images, figures and tables
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Passive and Active Measurement, PAM 2011, held in Atlanta, GA, USA, in March 2011. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 56 submissions. The papers were arranged into seven sessions covering passive measurement, wireless models, bandwidth, automated bots, route avoidance, interdomain protocols, timing, and diagnosis.
