Challenging the Mandate of Heaven
Social science theories of contentious politics have been based almost exclusively on evidence drawn from the European and American experience, and classic texts in the field make no mention of either the Chinese Communist revolution or the Cultural Revolution -- surely two of the most momentous social movements of the twentieth century. Moreover, China's record of popular upheaval stretches back well beyond this century, indeed all the way back to the third century B.C. This book, by bringing together studies of protest that span the imperial, Republican, and Communist eras, introduces Chinese patterns and provides a forum to consider ways in which contentious politics in China might serve to reinforce, refine or reshape theories derived from Western cases.
Computer Vision – ECCV 2020
The 30-volume set, comprising the LNCS books 12346 until 12375, constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th European Conference on Computer Vision, ECCV 2020, which was planned to be held in Glasgow, UK, during August 23-28, 2020. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 1360 revised papers presented in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 5025 submissions. The papers deal with topics such as computer vision; machine learning; deep neural networks; reinforcement learning; object recognition; image classification; image processing; object detection; semantic segmentation; human pose estimation; 3d reconstruction; stereo vision; computational photography; neural networks; image coding; image reconstruction; object recognition; motion estimation.
Computer Vision – ACCV 2022
The 7-volume set of LNCS 13841-13847 constitutes the proceedings of the 16th Asian Conference on Computer Vision, ACCV 2022, held in Macao, China, December 2022. The total of 277 contributions included in the proceedings set was carefully reviewed and selected from 836 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers focus on the following topics: Part I: 3D computer vision; optimization methods; Part II: applications of computer vision, vision for X; computational photography, sensing, and display; Part III: low-level vision, image processing; Part IV: face and gesture; pose and action; video analysis and event recognition; vision and language; biometrics; Part V: recognition: feature detection, indexing, matching, and shape representation; datasets and performance analysis; Part VI: biomedical image analysis; deep learning for computer vision; Part VII: generative models for computer vision; segmentation and grouping; motion and tracking; document image analysis; big data, large scale methods.

Service Science
This book constitutes selected papers presented at the 16th International Conference on Service Science, ICSS 2023, held in Harbin, China, in May 2023. The 36 full papers and 2 short papers presented were thoroughly reviewed and selected from the 71 submissions. They are organized in the following topical sections: serverless edge computing; edge services reliability; intelligent services; service application; knowledge-inspired service; service ecosystem; graph-based service optimization; AI-inspired service optimization.
The Men Who Governed Han China
How were prominent figures in the formative stages of China’s imperial government affected by changes in the theory and practice of government and its institutions? Calling on documentary evidence, some found only recently, Dr. Loewe examines local administration, the careers of officials, military organisation, the nobilities and kingdoms, the concepts of imperial sovereignty and the part played by the emperors. Special attention is paid to the anomalies in the historical records; tabulated lists of officials and other items summarise the evidence on which the chapters are based. Historical change and intellectual controversies are seen in the growth and decay of organs of administration, in the careers of individual men and women and the personal part that they played in shaping events.
