The First Summer School on Theoretical Aspects on Computer Science was held
at the Institute for Studies in Theoretical Physics and Mathematics (IPM) from
July 3-10, 2000.
The idea of organizing a summer school was originated during a conversation
between the first and the second editor of this volume in the winter...
The aim of this book is to introduce the reader to some of the best
techniques for data mining in bioinformatics in the hope that the reader
will build on them to make new discoveries on his or her own. The
book contains twelve chapters in four parts, namely, overview, sequence
and structure alignment, biological...
Used by corporations, industry, and government to inform and fuel everything from focused advertising to homeland security, data mining can be a very useful tool across a wide range of applications. Unfortunately, most books on the subject are designed for the computer scientist and statistical illuminati and leave the reader largely...
Covering the basic techniques used in the latest research work, the author consolidates progress made so far, including some very recent and promising results, and conveys the beauty and excitement of work in the field. He gives clear, lucid explanations of key results and ideas, with intuitive proofs, and provides critical examples and numerous...
Applied artificial intelligence researchers have been focusing on developing and
employing methods and systems to solve real-life problems in all areas including
engineering, science, industry, automation & robotics, business & finance,
cyberspace, and man–machine interactions. The 20th International...
Instructs readers on how to use methods of statistics and experimental design with R software
Applied statistics covers both the theory and the application of modern statistical and mathematical modelling techniques to applied problems in industry, public services, commerce, and research. It proceeds...
Anecdotal clinical reports of tumor remissions after viral infections laid the foundation for
the field of oncolytic virotherapy. Advances in molecular virology, tumor biology, and
immunology have enabled more refined studies of tumor-selective viruses. Concomitant
with the resurgence of cancer immunotherapy and after...
This book presents new findings on cyber-physical systems design and modelling approaches based on AI and data-driven techniques, identifying the key industrial challenges and the main features of design and modelling processes. To enhance the efficiency of the design process, it proposes new approaches based on the concept of digital twins....
This book highlights cutting-edge research in the field of network science, offering scientists, researchers, students, and practitioners a unique update on the latest advances in theory and a multitude of applications. It presents the peer-reviewed proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Complex Networks and their...
Wave-optics simulation is an immensely useful tool for many applications. The simulation techniques in this book are directly applicable to atmospheric imaging, astronomy, adaptive optics, free-space optical communications, and LADAR. In addition, many of the basic techniques are applicable to integrated optics and nonlinear, anisotropic,...
This book investigates the changes in ethnicity in contemporary China by examining the Yi in Liangshan. With a particular focus on cadres, a seemingly highly politicized group, this book tries to contribute to the discussion of ethnopolitics in China and the politicization of ethnicity. This study categorizes cadres into three generations...
This book provides an authoritative review of the origin and extraction of strontium and its impact on the environment. It also presents the latest strontium decontamination and remediation strategies. Around the globe, nuclear power is being recognized as a major source of energy and is expected to play a crucial role in...
