Marco Di Donatti, member of N'Drangheta, Calabrian mafia, had been sold by his boss to justice. Anti-mafia judge Alfredo Carone proposed to him a deal for become a repentant and asked him to meet his friend Giuseppe Agiono, a wealthy businessman, who wanted a request: Found and kill the pedophile who was responsible of the death of his young daughter, Catrina. Marco Di Donatti will be agree?
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Independent Component Analysis and Signal Separation, ICA 2009, held in Paraty, Brazil, in March 2009. The 97 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 137 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on theory, algorithms and architectures, biomedical applications, image processing, speech and audio processing, other applications, as well as a special session on evaluation.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Independent Component Analysis and Blind Source Separation, ICA 2006, held in Charleston, SC, USA, in March 2006. The 120 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 183 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on algorithms and architectures, applications, medical applications, speech and signal processing, theory, and visual and sensory processing.
In many situations found both in Nature and in human-built systems, a set of mixed signals is observed (frequently also with noise), and it is of great scientific and technological relevance to be able to isolate or separate them so that the information in each of the signals can be utilized. Blind source separation (BSS) research is one of the more interesting emerging fields now a days in the field of signal processing. It deals with the algorithms that allow the recovery of the original sources from a set of mixtures only. The adjective "blind" is applied because the purpose is to estimate the original sources without any a priori knowledge about either the sources or the mixing system. M...
The Symposium brought together many of the world’s experts in fluid mechanics, microfabrication and control theory to discover the synergy that can lead to real advances and perhaps find ways in which collaborative projects may proceed. The high profile meeting was attended by keynote speakers who are leaders in their fields. A key driver was the improvement in flow efficiency to reduce drag, and thereby emissions arising from transport. About 65 papers were presented.
Founded in the 1970s and today active in more than 40 countries, the Animal Liberation Front has in recent years been considered a domestic terrorist group by both the FBI and the Southern Poverty Law Center--despite the ALF's official stance of nonviolence. A clandestine, phantom cell organization, the ALF has functioned as a sort of Underground Railroad for captive animals, executing raids and attacks on animal testing facilities. Yet little has been written about the group or its founder. With unprecedented access by the author, this book tells the story of Ronnie Lee, the unassuming British activist who launched an extremist movement that continues to use intimidation and economic sabotage to advance its cause.
This volume proposes some theories on the conditions that favor the formation of coalitions between terrorist organizations, and how they function within the changing international system. These theories are tested against empirical data on actual cooperation between European and Palestinian terrorist organizations from 1968 to 1990, and cooperation between European left-wing terrorist organizations (the phenomenon known as Euro-terrorism) from 1984 to 1988.
