  • Modeling Life: The Mathematics of Biological

    Springer International Publishing AG Modeling Life: The Mathematics of Biological

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book develops the mathematical tools essential for students in the life sciences to describe interacting systems and predict their behavior. From predator-prey populations in an ecosystem, to hormone regulation within the body, the natural world abounds in dynamical systems that affect us profoundly. Complex feedback relations and counter-intuitive responses are common in nature; this book develops the quantitative skills needed to explore these interactions. Differential equations are the natural mathematical tool for quantifying change, and are the driving force throughout this book. The use of Euler’s method makes nonlinear examples tractable and accessible to a broad spectrum of early-stage undergraduates, thus providing a practical alternative to the procedural approach of a traditional Calculus curriculum. Tools are developed within numerous, relevant examples, with an emphasis on the construction, evaluation, and interpretation of mathematical models throughout. Encountering these concepts in context, students learn not only quantitative techniques, but how to bridge between biological and mathematical ways of thinking. Examples range broadly, exploring the dynamics of neurons and the immune system, through to population dynamics and the Google PageRank algorithm. Each scenario relies only on an interest in the natural world; no biological expertise is assumed of student or instructor. Building on a single prerequisite of Precalculus, the book suits a two-quarter sequence for first or second year undergraduates, and meets the mathematical requirements of medical school entry. The later material provides opportunities for more advanced students in both mathematics and life sciences to revisit theoretical knowledge in a rich, real-world framework. In all cases, the focus is clear: how does the math help us understand the science?Trade Review“The book can serve as an introduction to the field of modeling not only for university students but for any person interested in the field with little or no knowledge of calculus. … This book is a very interesting deviation from this prevailing paradigm. It takes the essence of calculus and presents it in a way which is accessible and usable in the practice of life sciences professionals.” (Svetoslav Markov, zbMATH 1397.92001, 2018)Table of Contents1.

    Book SynopsisThe purpose of this book is twofold: first, it sets out to equip the reader with a sound understanding of the foundations of probability theory and stochastic processes, offering step-by-step guidance from basic probability theory to advanced topics, such as stochastic differential equations, which typically are presented in textbooks that require a very strong mathematical background. Second, while leading the reader on this journey, it aims to impart the knowledge needed in order to develop algorithms that simulate realistic physical systems. Connections with several fields of pure and applied physics, from quantum mechanics to econophysics, are provided. Furthermore, the inclusion of fully solved exercises will enable the reader to learn quickly and to explore topics not covered in the main text. The book will appeal especially to graduate students wishing to learn how to simulate physical systems and to deepen their knowledge of the mathematical framework, which has very deep connections with modern quantum field theory.Table of Contents1 Review of Probability Theory.- 2 Applications to Mathematical Statistics.- 3 Conditional Probability and Conditional Expectation.- 4 Markov Chains.- 5 Sampling of Random Variables and Simulation.- 6 Brownian Motion.- 7 Introduction to Stochastic Calculus and Ito Integral.- 8 Introduction to Stochastic Differential Equations and Applications.- Bibliography.- Solutions.

    Book SynopsisIm landläufigen Mathematikunterricht an Schulen und Hochschulen wird die Mathematik überwiegend als eine geistige Disziplin vermittelt, in der es um die Klarheit und Stringenz des Denkens geht. Systematik und formale Eleganz der Darstellung stehen im Vorder­ grund. Dabei wird aber ignoriert, daß die Mathematik nicht allein aus sich heraus lebt, sondern in andere Bereiche unserer Kultur eingebunden ist. Ohne allzusehr zu übertreiben, kann man sogar behaupten, daß sie ein integrativer Bestandteil unserer technologischen Welt ist und damit einen Einfluß ausübt, der weit über ihr Selbstverständnis hinausgeht. Mit der Sprache der Mathematik lassen sich auch nicht-mathematische Inhalte, zu­ mindest bis zu einem gewissen Grade ausdrücken. Man gelangt auf diese Weise oft zu Einsichten, die man ohne die Sprache der Mathematik nicht so klar und präzise aus­ drücken könnte. Man muß dabei allerdings auch beachten, daß mit der Umsetzung nicht­ mathematischer Sachverhalte in Mathematik eine starke Vereinfachung einhergeht als Preis für die mathematische Abstraktion. Diese Vereinfachung muß bei der Interpretation der durch Mathematik gewonnenen Einsichten berücksichtigt werden. Der Zweck dieses Buches besteht darin, die soeben skizzierte Rolle der Mathematik ins Bewußtsein der Mathematiker zu bringen. Danken möchte ich Frau A. Garhammer für das Schreiben dieses Buchtextes auf dem Computer und Herrn S. Bott für die Herstellung der Graphiken.Table of ContentsProblemstellung - Ein mathematisches Modell des Informationsbegriffes Modell des Informationsbegriffes - Entscheidungs- und Spielmodelle - Wachstumsmodelle - Zwei mathematische Modelle in der Medizin - Konkurrenzmodelle - Ein mathematisches Modell der Hämodialyse - Ein mathematisches Modell für Rüstung

Wo ist der Sinn von Interpolation, Approximation und der Lösung linearer Systeme, wenn man nicht weiß, in welch vielfältigen Problemen diese Techniken anwendbar sind? Bei der Suche nach Anwendungen stößt man auf die Modellierung technischer, biologischer und ökonomischer Fragen. Des Weiteren muss das Modell in irgendeiner Form auf einem Rechner abgebildet werden, wozu man einige Kenntnisse aus der Informatik benötigt.Table of ContentsModellbildung oder: Wie hätte Leonardo modelliert? - Wie schnell wächst Fußpilz? - Wie wirtschaftlich ist mein Betrieb? - Wie sendet Asterix Geheimbotschaften an Teefax? - Was haben Tomographie und Wasserleitungen gemeinsam? - Wie fließt der Straßenverkehr? - Dem Zufall keine Chance? - Wie fängt der Hai die Beute?

  • Assessing Risk Assessment: Towards Alternative

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisChristian Hugo Hoffmann undermines the citadel of risk assessment and management, arguing that classical probability theory is not an adequate foundation for modeling systemic and extreme risk in complex financial systems. He proposes a new class of models which focus on the knowledge dimension by precisely describing market participants’ own positions and their propensity to react to outside changes. The author closes his thesis by a synthetical reflection on methods and elaborates on the meaning of decision-making competency in a risk management context in banking. By choosing this poly-dimensional approach, the purpose of his work is to explore shortcomings of risk management approaches of financial institutions and to point out how they might be overcome.

    Book SynopsisReal world investors differ in their tastes and attitudes and they do not have, in general, perfect information about the future prospects of the economy. Most theoretical models, however, assume to the contrary that investors are homogeneous and perfectly informed about the market. In this book, an attempt is made to overcome these shortcomings. In three different case studies, the effect of heterogeneous time preferences, heterogeneous beliefs and imperfect information about the economy's growth on the term structure of interest rates are studied. The initial chapter gives an introduction to the theory of financial markets in continuous time under imperfect information and establishes the existence of an equilibrium with complete markets.Table of ContentsInformation.- Equilibrium with Imperfect Information and Complete Asset Markets in Continuous Time: Introduction; A Competitive Financial Market with Imperfect Information; Martingale Representation Theorem for the Innovation Process; The Existence of an Arrow-Debreu Equilibrium, Pareter Efficiency and the Representation Agent; Completeness of the Market and Existence of a Financial Equilibrium; Pricing Redundant Securities and the Term Structure of Interest Rates.- Heterogeneous Time Preferences - Preferred Habitat Theory Revisited: Modeling Preferred Habitat Time Preferences; A Model with Heterogeneous Time Preferences; Equilibrium; Analysis of the Term Structure; The Demand for Long-Term Bonds.- Imperfect Information: The Term Structure when the Growth Rate is Unknown: The Model; Estimating the Drift; Equilibrium with Perfect and Imperfect Information; The Yield Curve with Normal and Bernoulli Prior Beliefs; General Prior Beliefs.- Bulls and Bears: Heterogeneous Expectations: Setup; Equilibrium; Two Examples.

  • Spectral Methods for Uncertainty Quantification: With Applications to Computational Fluid Dynamics

    Springer Spectral Methods for Uncertainty Quantification: With Applications to Computational Fluid Dynamics

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book deals with the application of spectral methods to problems of uncertainty propagation and quanti?cation in model-based computations. It speci?cally focuses on computational and algorithmic features of these methods which are most useful in dealing with models based on partial differential equations, with special att- tion to models arising in simulations of ?uid ?ows. Implementations are illustrated through applications to elementary problems, as well as more elaborate examples selected from the authors’ interests in incompressible vortex-dominated ?ows and compressible ?ows at low Mach numbers. Spectral stochastic methods are probabilistic in nature, and are consequently rooted in the rich mathematical foundation associated with probability and measure spaces. Despite the authors’ fascination with this foundation, the discussion only - ludes to those theoretical aspects needed to set the stage for subsequent applications. The book is authored by practitioners, and is primarily intended for researchers or graduate students in computational mathematics, physics, or ?uid dynamics. The book assumes familiarity with elementary methods for the numerical solution of time-dependent, partial differential equations; prior experience with spectral me- ods is naturally helpful though not essential. Full appreciation of elaborate examples in computational ?uid dynamics (CFD) would require familiarity with key, and in some cases delicate, features of the associated numerical methods. Besides these shortcomings, our aim is to treat algorithmic and computational aspects of spectral stochastic methods with details suf?cient to address and reconstruct all but those highly elaborate examples.Table of ContentsIntroduction: Uncertainty Quantification and Propagation.- Basic Formulations.- Spectral Expansions.- Non-intrusive Methods.- Galerkin Methods.- Detailed Elementary Applications.- Application to Navier-Stokes Equations.- Advanced topics.- Solvers for Stochastic Galerkin Problems.- Wavelet and Multiresolution Analysis Schemes.- Adaptive Methods.- Epilogue.

The symposium, held in October 2020 at Osaka University in Japan, was the core event for the final year of the research project entitled “Establishing International Research Networks of Mathematical Oncology.” The project had been carried out since April 2015 as part of the Core-to-Core Program of Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS). In this book, the editor presents collaborative research from prestigious organizations in France, the UK, and the USA. By utilizing their individual strengths and realizing the fusion of life science and mathematical science, the project achieved a combination of mathematical analysis, verification by biomedical experiments, and statistical analysis of chemical databases.Mathematics is sometimes regarded as a universal language. It is a valuable property that everyone can understand beyond the boundaries of culture, religion, and language. This unifying force of mathematics also applies to the various fields of science. Mathematical oncology has two aspects, i.e., data science and mathematical modeling, and definitely helps in the prediction and control of biological phenomena observed in cancer evolution.The topics addressed in this book represent several methods of applying mathematical modeling to scientific problems in the natural sciences. Furthermore, novel reviews are included that may motivate many mathematicians to become interested in biological research.Table of ContentsPART 1: Mathematical Modeling: D. Guan, X. Luo, and H.

The lockdown has been announced to control the spread of COVID-19 infections, however people/industries/organizations were not ready for lockdown and it has greatly affected their growth. The front workers in the healthcare sector suffered a lot as major responsibilities they needed to carry on. The education sector is also hampered due to the pandemic as schools, colleges were closed and teaching, examinations were carried out on online platforms. These platforms were new to teachers as well as students. The real estate sector faced tremendous loss in this pandemic as people were scared and no one ready to invest their money in such an uncertain time. The agriculture filed is also suffered as raw materials required for agriculture were not available readily due to pandemic. This book presents a survey that is conducted to understand the impact of COVID-19 on the quality of work-life in various sectors. The survey is focused majorly on four sectors, i.e. education, healthcare, real estate and agriculture.

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book discusses the importance of knowledge as an intangible asset, separate from physical entities, that can enable us to understand and/or change the world. It provides a thorough treatment of knowledge, one that is free of ideological and philosophical preconceptions, and which relies exclusively on concepts and principles from the theory of computing and logic. It starts with an introduction to knowledge as truthful and useful information, and its development and management by computers and humans. It analyses the relationship between computational processes and physical phenomena, as well as the processes of knowledge production and application by humans and computers. In turn, the book presents autonomous systems that are called upon to replace humans in complex operations as a step toward strong AI, and discusses the risks – real or hypothetical – of the careless use of these systems. It compares human and machine intelligence, attempting to answer the question of whether and to what extent computers, as they stand today, can approach human-level situation awareness and decision-making. Lastly, the book explains the functioning of individual consciousness as an autonomous system that manages short- and long-term objectives on the basis of value criteria and accumulated knowledge. It discusses how individual values are shaped in society and the role of institutions in fostering and maintaining a common set of values for strengthening social cohesion. The book differs from books on the philosophy of science in many respects, e.g. by considering knowledge in its multiple facets and degrees of validity and truthfulness. It follows the dualist tradition of logicians, emphasizing the importance of logic and language and considering an abstract concept of information very different from the one used in the physical sciences. From this perspective, it levels some hopefully well-founded criticism at approaches that consider information and knowledge as nothing more than the emergent properties of physical phenomena. The book strikes a balance between popular books that sidestep fundamental issues and focus on sensationalism, and scientific or philosophical books that are not accessible to non-experts. As such, it is intended for a broad audience interested in the role of knowledge as a driver for change and development, and as a common good whose production and application could shape the future of humanity.Trade Review​In Understanding and Changing the World: From Information to Knowledge and Intelligence, Joseph Sifakis (a 2007 Turing Award recipient) amasses a lifetime of knowledge as a deep thinker and effective practitioner of computer science—indeed, collecting a civilization’s wisdom—to provide a valuable framework that is rooted in the philosophy of science and society."Akash Deshpande, SIAM News, https://sinews.siam.org/Details-Page/intelligence-whence-and-whitherTable of Contents1.

  • Machine Learning in Social Networks: Embedding Nodes, Edges, Communities, and Graphs

    Springer Verlag, Singapore Machine Learning in Social Networks: Embedding Nodes, Edges, Communities, and Graphs

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book deals with network representation learning. It deals with embedding nodes, edges, subgraphs and graphs. There is a growing interest in understanding complex systems in different domains including health, education, agriculture and transportation. Such complex systems are analyzed by modeling, using networks that are aptly called complex networks. Networks are becoming ubiquitous as they can represent many real-world relational data, for instance, information networks, molecular structures, telecommunication networks and protein–protein interaction networks. Analysis of these networks provides advantages in many fields such as recommendation (recommending friends in a social network), biological field (deducing connections between proteins for treating new diseases) and community detection (grouping users of a social network according to their interests) by leveraging the latent information of networks. An active and important area of current interest is to come out with algorithms that learn features by embedding nodes or (sub)graphs into a vector space. These tasks come under the broad umbrella of representation learning. A representation learning model learns a mapping function that transforms the graphs' structure information to a low-/high-dimension vector space maintaining all the relevant properties.
