This book focuses on biomedical applications of polarized light, covering instrumentation and modeling specific to the field. This will be the first book, written by leading researchers in the field, to tackle this important topic. Readers will learn the fundamentals of polarized light transport and how to develop instrumentation for clinical and preclinical studies. They will also become familiar with the latest advancement in data analysis and image processing for a variety of medical applications. The book is dedicated specifically to the biomedical community, including scientists, engineers, and physicians working on the development of instrumentation for clinical and preclinical use. Emphasizes biomedical imaging and sensing; Describes new computational approaches with examples; Provides detailed descriptions of novel instrumentation.
This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 13th International Conference on Data Integration in the Life Sciences, DILS 2018, held in Hannover, Germany, in November 2018. The 5 full, 8 short, 3 poster and 4 demo papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections named: big biomedical data integration and management; data exploration in the life sciences; biomedical data analytics; and big biomedical applications.
This book presents peer-reviewed and selected papers of the International Youth Conference on Electronics, Telecommunications, and Information Technologies (YETI-2021), held in Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, St. Petersburg, on April 22–23, 2021. For the third time around, the conference brings together students and early career scientists, serving to disseminate the current trends and advances in electronics, telecommunications, optical, and information technologies. A series of workshops and poster sessions focusing, in particular, on the theoretical and practical challenges in nanotechnologies, photonics, signal processing, and telecommunications allow to establish contacts between potential partners, share new ideas, and start new collaborations. The conference is held in an online format, thus considerably expanding its geographical reach and offering an even wider scope of discussion.
This edited volume explores the intersection of spirituality with childbirth from 1800 to the present day from a comparative perspective. It illustrates how over this time period in much of the world, traditional practices, home births, and midwives have been overshadowed and undermined by male dominated obstetrics, hospitalization, and ultimately the medicalization of the birthing process itself.
The seven-volume set comprising LNCS volumes 7572-7578 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th European Conference on Computer Vision, ECCV 2012, held in Florence, Italy, in October 2012. The 408 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 1437 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on geometry, 2D and 3D shapes, 3D reconstruction, visual recognition and classification, visual features and image matching, visual monitoring: action and activities, models, optimisation, learning, visual tracking and image registration, photometry: lighting and colour, and image segmentation.
The contributors not only study state breakdown but compare the consequences of post-communism with those of post-colonialism.
