John Wiley & Sons Inc Speech Recognition
Book SynopsisAutomatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is the enabling technology for hands-free dictation and voice-triggered computer menus. It is becoming increasingly prevalent in environments such as private telephone exchanges and real-time information services. Speech Recognition introduces the principles of ASR systems, including the theory and implementation issues behind multi-speaker continuous speech recognition. Focusing on the algorithms employed in commercial and laboratory systems, the treatment enables the reader to devise practical solutions for ASR system problems. It addresses in detail C++ programming techniques used to develop ASR applications, thus offering skills that will prove useful in any large C++ based software project. Possible extensions of the well-established ASR technology are highlighted, based on Hidden Markov Models applied to fields such as modelling and prediction of econometric series. Features include: * Accompanying website containing all C++ source code ofTrade Review"Speech Recognition introduces the principles of ASR systems, including the theory and implementation issues behind multi-speaker continuous speech recognition..."

Taylor & Francis Ltd Introduction to the Maths and Physics of Quantum
Book SynopsisIntroduction to the Maths and Physics of Quantum Mechanics details the mathematics and physics that are needed to learn the principles of quantum mechanics.It provides an accessible treatment of how to use quantum mechanics and why it is so successful in explaining natural phenomena. This book clarifies various aspects of quantum physics such as why quantum mechanics equations contain I, the imaginary number?', Is it possible to make a transition from classical mechanics to quantum physics without using postulates?' and What is the origin of the uncertainty principle?'. A significant proportion of discussion is dedicated to the issue of why the wave function must be complex to properly describe our real world.The book also addresses the different formulations of quantum mechanics. A relatively simple introductory treatment is given for the standard Heisenberg matrix formulation and Schrodinger wave-function formulation and Feynman path integrals and second quantTable of ContentsChapter 1: Classical Physics.

Taylor & Francis Reimagining Mobilities across the Humanities
Book SynopsisVolume 1: Theories, Methods and Ideas explores the mobility of ideas through time and space and how interdisciplinary theories and methodological approaches used in mobilities studies can be profitably utilised within the humanities and social sciences. Through a series of short chapters, mobility is employed as an elastic, inclusive and multifaceted concept across various disciplines to shed light on a geographically and chronologically broad range of issues and case studies. In doing so, the concept of mobility is positioned as a powerful catalyst for historical change and as a fruitful approach to research in the humanities and social sciences.Like its sister volume, this volume is edited and written by members of the Centre for Advanced Studies in Mobility and the Humanities (MoHu) at the Department of Historical and Geographical Sciences and The Ancient World (DiSSGeA) of the University of Padua, Italy. The structure of the book mirrors the Theories and Methods, and Idea

Atlantis Press (Zeger Karssen) Real-World Reasoning: Toward Scalable, Uncertain Spatiotemporal, Contextual and Causal Inference
Book SynopsisThe general problem addressed in this book is a large and important one: how to usefully deal with huge storehouses of complex information about real-world situations. Every one of the major modes of interacting with such storehouses – querying, data mining, data analysis – is addressed by current technologies only in very limited and unsatisfactory ways. The impact of a solution to this problem would be huge and pervasive, as the domains of human pursuit to which such storehouses are acutely relevant is numerous and rapidly growing. Finally, we give a more detailed treatment of one potential solution with this class, based on our prior work with the Probabilistic Logic Networks (PLN) formalism. We show how PLN can be used to carry out realworld reasoning, by means of a number of practical examples of reasoning regarding human activities inreal-world situations.Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Knowledge Representation Using Formal Logic.- Quantifying and Managing Uncertainty.- Representing Temporal Knowledge.- Temporal Reasoning.- Representing and Reasoning On Spatial Knowledge.- Representing and Reasoning on Contextual Knowledge.- Causal Reasoning.- Extracting Logical Knowledge from Raw Data.- Scalable Spatiotemporal Logical Knowledge Storage.- Mining Patterns from Large Spatiotemporal Logical Knowledge Stores.- Probabilistic Logic Networks.- Temporal and Contextual Reasoning in PLN.- Inferring the Causes of Observed Changes.-Adaptive Inference Control.

Cambridge University Press Trajectories of Neoliberal Transformation European Industrial Relations Since the 1970s
Book SynopsisThis book has both empirical and theoretical goals. The primary empirical goal is to examine the evolution of industrial relations in Western Europe from the end of the 1970s up to the present. Its purpose is to evaluate the extent to which liberalization has taken hold of European industrial relations and institutions through five detailed, chapter-length studies, each focusing on a different country and including quantitative analysis. The book offers a comprehensive description and analysis of what has happened to the institutions that regulate the labor market, as well as the relations between employers, unions, and states in Western Europe since the collapse of the long postwar boom. The primary theoretical goal of this book is to provide a critical examination of some of the central claims of comparative political economy, particularly those involving the role and resilience of national institutions in regulating and managing capitalist political economies.Trade Review'This is an important book for all scholars and practitioners of industrial relations. It includes very detailed and insightful analyses of developments in industrial relations in a number of European countries (Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Sweden), but its ambition goes well beyond that.' Roberto Pedersini, TransferTable of ContentsIntroduction; 1. Arguing for neoliberal convergence; 2. Quantitative analysis of industrial relations change; 3. Constructing a liberal market economy: the collapse of collective regulation in Britain; 4. State-led liberalization and the transformation of worker representation in France; 5.

Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) A Historical Approach to Casuistry Norms and Exceptions in a Comparative Perspective
Book SynopsisCarlo Ginzburg is Franklin D. Murphy Professor of Italian Renaissance Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles, and Emeritus Professor of History of European Cultures at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, Italy.Lucio Biasiori is Research Fellow at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, Italy. His interests encompass early modern religious and cultural history.Trade ReviewGinzburg has assembled some of the world’s leading thinkers to explore casuistry as a fundamental and surprisingly neglected approach to intractable dilemmas and paradoxes throughout history. Traversing disciplines and centuries, this volume will change the way we think and the way we think about thinking. * Matthew C. Mirow, Professor of Law, Florida International University, USA *As these wide-ranging essays demonstrate, casuistry is hardly so simple as normally believed, but a style of thought in which norms and exceptions are mutually constitutive, dialogically and dialectically interrelated. Time after time, we observe how established authorities in one domain or another (law, medicine, theology; Europe, Asia, the Americas) responded to deviations from what they prescribed and expected, struggling to defuse the challenge these anomalies present by construing them -- often with extraordinary ingenuity -- as exceptions that prove, rather than threaten the rule. Each chapter makes for fascinating reading, as does the volume as a whole. * Bruce Lincoln, Caroline E. Haskell Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of History of Religions, University of Chicago, USA *Besides the adventure, provocation, and irony, through each essay we find a wonderful appreciation of the epistemic richness of ethics when it dares to consider the particular as well as the exceptional. The book is a significant contribution to the field. * Journal of Jesuit Studies *Table of ContentsPreface, Carlo Ginzburg (University of California, Los Angeles, USA; Scuola Normale Superiore, Italy) Acknowledgments Part I Casuistry and Medicine across Time and Space 1.

MQ - University of Nebraska Press A Visit to the Ranquel Indians
Book SynopsisLucio V Mansilla (1831-1913) was a colonel in the Argentine army when he undertook an excursion to the Argentine interior in 1870. In this book, his account, which contains thoughtful perspectives on the 'Indian question' and the dichotomy of civilization and barbarism, stands as a lasting contribution to Argentine and Spanish-American literature.Trade Review"One of the finest and subtlest books ever written on an American frontier. . . . [A] many layered and ironical masterpiece."—Malcolm Deas, Times Literary Supplement"I find Eva Gillies’s translation of Mansilla’s work simply superb. . . . [It] provides an excellent reconstruction of Mansilla’s momentous journey as well as of his times."—Saul Sosnowski, University of Maryland
