Taylor & Francis Ltd Place Meaning and Attachment Authenticity
Book SynopsisRevolutions have gripped many countries, leading to the destruction of buildings, places, and artifacts; climate change is threatening the ancestral homes of many, the increasingly uneven distribution of resources has made the poor vulnerable to the coercive efforts by the rich, and social uncertainty has led to the romanticizing of the past. Humanity is resilient, but we have a fundamental need for attachment to places, buildings, and objects.This edited volume will explore the different meanings and forms of place attachment and meaning based on our histories and conceptualization of material artifacts. Each chapter examines a varied relationship between a given society and the meaning formed through myth, symbols, and ideologies manifested through diverse forms of material artifacts. Topics of consideration examine place attachment at many scales including at the level of the artifact, human being, building, urban context, and region.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Computer VisionBased Agriculture Engineering
Book SynopsisIn recent years, computer vision is a fast-growing technique of agricultural engineering, especially in quality detection of agricultural products and food safety testing. It can provide objective, rapid, non-contact and non-destructive methods by extracting quantitative information from digital images. Significant scientific and technological advances have been made in quality inspection, classification and evaluation of a wide range of food and agricultural products. Computer Vision-Based Agriculture Engineering focuses on these advances.The book contains 25 chapters covering computer vision, image processing, hyperspectral imaging and other related technologies in peanut aflatoxin, peanut and corn quality varieties, and carrot and potato quality, as well as pest and disease detection.Features:Discusses various detection methods in a variety of agricultural cropsEach chapter includes materials and methods used, results and analysis, and diTable of ContentsPrefaceAuthorChapter 1 Detecting Aflatoxin in Agricultural Products by Hyperspectral Imaging: A ReviewChapter 2 Aflatoxin Detection by Fluorescence Index and Narrowband Spectra Based on Hyperspectral ImagingChapter 3 Application-Driven Key Wavelength Mining Method for Aflatoxin Detection Using Hyperspectral DataChapter 4 Deep Learning-Based Aflatoxin Detection of Hyperspectral DataChapter 5 Pixel-Level Aflatoxin Detection Based on Deep Learning and Hyperspectral ImagingChapter 6 A Method of Detecting Peanut Cultivars and Quality Based on the Appearance Characteristic RecognitionChapter 7 Quality Grade Testing of Peanut Based on Image ProcessingChapter 8 Study on Origin Traceability of Peanut Pods Based on Image RecognitionChapter 9 Study on the Pedigree Clustering of Peanut Pod’s Variety Based on Image ProcessingChapter 10 Image Features and DUS Testing Traits for Identification and Pedigree Analysis of Peanut Pod VarietiesChapter 11 Counting Ear Rows in Maize Using Image Processing MethodChapter 12 Single-Seed Precise Sowing of Maize Using Computer SimulationChapter 13 Identifying Maize Surface and Species by Transfer LearningChapter 14 A Carrot Sorting System Using Machine Vision TechniqueChapter 15 A New Automatic Carrot Grading System Based on Computer VisionChapter 16 Identifying Carrot Appearance Quality by Transfer LearningChapter 17 Grading System of Pear’s Appearance Quality Based on Computer VisionChapter 18 Study on Defect Extraction of Pears with Rich Spots and Neural Network Grading MethodChapter 19 Food Detection Using Infrared Spectroscopy with k-ICA and k-SVM: Variety, Brand, Origin, and AdulterationChapter 20 Study on Vegetable Seed Electrophoresis Image Classification MethodChapter 21 Identifying the Change Process of a Fresh Pepper by Transfer LearningChapter 22 Identifying the Change Process of Fresh Banana by Transfer LearningChapter 23 Pest Recognition Using Transfer LearningChapter 24 Using Deep Learning for Image-Based Plant Disease DetectionChapter 25 Research on the Behavior Trajectory of Ornamental Fish Based on Computer VisionIndex

Taylor & Francis Ltd PostPolitics and Civil Society in Asian Cities
Book SynopsisBringing together an interdisciplinary group of scholars, Post-Politics and Civil Society in Asian Cities examines how the concept of post-politics' has manifested across a range of Asian cities, and the impact this has had on state-society relationships in processes of urban governance.This volume examines how the post-political frameworkderived from the study of Western liberal democraciesapplies to Asian cities. Appreciating that the region has undergone a distinctive trajectory of political development, and is currently governed under democratic or authoritarian regimes, the book articulates how post-political conditions have created obstacles or opportunities for civil society to assert its voice in urban governance. Chapters address the different ways in which Asian civil society groups strive to gain a stake in the development and management of cities, specifically by looking at their involvement in heritage and environmental governance, two inter-relatedTable of ContentsIntroduction: Theorising the post-political in Asian cities Sonia Lam-Knott, Creighton Connolly, And Kong Chong Ho PART I Post-political governance in Asia 1.
