Concepts and Cases of Illicit Finance
As fraud and corruption continue to spread globally, illicit and illegitimate finance is one of many areas of concern. To help stop the spread of corruption across fields and industries, further study on the best practices and strategies to combat illicit and illegitimate finance is required. Concepts and Cases of Illicit Finance provides understanding and lessons learned regarding all aspects of illicit and illegitimate finance. Covering key topics such as financial crimes, financial intelligence, and hacking fraud, this premier reference work is ideal for business owners, managers, policymakers, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
Intragastric Balloon for Weight Management
Intragastric balloons are steadily gaining popularity among the medical treatments available for obesity. Their efficacy and safety are reinforced by growing body of evidence obtained around the globe. Intragastric balloons are now considered one of the safest and most effective medical procedures for weight reduction. Additionally, the reduced potential for side effects and low invasiveness (compared to bariatric surgeries) are important considerations. This book is edited by renowned surgeons and endoscopists from Brazil, a country known for its reputation on the field of bariatric endoscopy and surgery. Such reputation is especially valid where the use of intragastric balloons is concerne...

Computational Intelligence and Information Technology
This book constitutes the proceedings of the First International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Information Technology, CIIT 2011, held in Pune, India, in November 2011. The 58 revised full papers, 67 revised short papers, and 32 poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 483 initial submissions. The papers are contributed by innovative academics and industrial experts in the field of computer science, information technology, computational engineering, mobile communication and security and offer a stage to a common forum, where a constructive dialog on theoretical concepts, practical ideas and results of the state of the art can be developed.
Advances in Corrosion Control of Magnesium and its Alloys
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have received widespread acceptance in automobile industries and biomedical applications with substantial recent advancements made in their development, however a significant limitation remains their poor aqueous and galvanic corrosion resistance. This book covers both the fundamentals and recent advancements in two major corrosion protection strategies of magnesium and its alloys, namely, metal-matrix composites and protective coatings. Key features: Covers all aspects of metal-matrix composites and protective coatings for magnesium alloys to improve their corrosion resistance, wear resistance, mechanical properties and biocompatibility Provides the most recent research advancements in the corrosion mitigation strategies of magnesium and its alloys Complete with case studies specific to practical applications, this book serves as a ready reference for graduate students, researchers, engineers and industry professionals in the fields of materials, corrosion science, biofouling and protective coatings.
Social Fabric
Social Fabric: Art and Activism in Contemporary Brazil brings together the work of ten artists who reflect upon the long-standing histories of oppressive power structures in the territory now known as Brazil. Blurring the line between art and activism and spanning installation, painting, performance, photography, sculpture, and video, these artists contribute to local and global conversations about the state of democracy, racial injustice, and the violence inflicted by the nation-state. This first English-language, book-length study of contemporary Brazilian art in relationship to activism assembles artist-authored texts, interviews, essays, and a conceptual mapping of Brazilian history to illuminate the function of art as a platform for critical engagement with the historical, political, and cultural configurations of a particular place. By refusing to remain neutral, these artists create spaces of vibrant and vital community and self-construction to explore how healing and justice may be possible, especially in the Black, LGBTQIA+, and Indigenous communities to which many of them belong.
Computational Intelligence in Electromyography Analysis
Electromyography (EMG) is a technique for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles. EMG may be used clinically for the diagnosis of neuromuscular problems and for assessing biomechanical and motor control deficits and other functional disorders. Furthermore, it can be used as a control signal for interfacing with orthotic and/or prosthetic devices or other rehabilitation assists. This book presents an updated overview of signal processing applications and recent developments in EMG from a number of diverse aspects and various applications in clinical and experimental research. It will provide readers with a detailed introduction to EMG signal processing techniques and applications, while presenting several new results and explanation of existing algorithms. This book is organized into 18 chapters, covering the current theoretical and practical approaches of EMG research.
