War Representation in British Cinema and Television: From Suez to Thatcher, and Beyond by Kevin M. Flanagan
English | EPUB | 2019 | 233 Pages | ISBN : 3030302024 | 14.71 MB

This book explores alternatives to realist, triumphalist, and heroic representations of war in British film and television. Focusing on the period between the Suez Crisis of 1956 and the Falkland War but offering connections to the moment of Brexit, it argues that the “lost continent” of existential, satirical, simulated, and abstractly traumatic war stories is as central to understanding Britain’s martial history as the mainstream inheritance.

Dryland Ecohydrology by Paolo D'Odorico
English | PDF,EPUB | 2019 | 594 Pages | ISBN : 3030232689 | 71 MB

By combining the analysis of biotic and abiotic components of terrestrial ecosystems, this book synthesizes material on arid and semiarid landscapes, which was previously scattered among various books and journal articles. It focuses on water-limited ecosystems, which are highly sensitive to fluctuations in hydrologic conditions and, in turn, play an important role in affecting the regional water cycle.

Information Theoretic Learning: Renyi's Entropy and Kernel Perspectives by Jose C. Principe
English | EPUB | 2010 | 538 Pages | ISBN : 1441915699 | 6.79 MB

This book presents the first cohesive treatment of Information Theoretic Learning (ITL) algorithms to adapt linear or nonlinear learning machines both in supervised or unsupervised paradigms. ITL is a framework where the conventional concepts of second order statistics (covariance, L2 distances, correlation functions) are substituted by scalars and functions with information theoretic underpinnings, respectively entropy, mutual information and correntropy.

Umberto Curi - Il colore dell'inferno. La pena tra vendetta e giustizia
Italiano | 2019 | 221 pages | ISBN: 8833929590 | EPUB | 0,4 MB

«Dove mai avrà termine, dove mai placata cesserà la furia di Ate?» L'interrogativo angoscioso di Eschilo non smette di risuonare dopo migliaia di anni. Abbiamo forse dimenticato il nome della funesta divinità greca che prima induceva gli uomini in errore e poi ne esigeva inclemente la punizione, ma della sua vendicatività rimane un'impronta nell'idea di giustizia a cui è ispirata l'attuale civiltà giuridica. La rassicurante contrapposizione tra vendetta e barbarie da un lato - la violenza sommaria del «sangue chiama sangue» - e giustizia e civiltà dall'altro tradisce infatti una infondatezza che sgomenta. Scrutando nel cono d'ombra dell'azione penale con lo sguardo penetrante di chi coglie ambivalenze e fratture nella presunta rotondità dei concetti, Umberto Curi vi rintraccia l'aspetto arcaico e irrisolto che tinge ancora il dispositivo della pena del «colore dell'inferno», secondo l'espressione di Simone Weil..

Association Rule Hiding for Data Mining by Aris Gkoulalas-Divanis
English | PDF | 2010 | 159 Pages | ISBN : 1441965688 | 2.7 MB

Privacy and security risks arising from the application of different data mining techniques to large institutional data repositories have been solely investigated by a new research domain, the so-called privacy preserving data mining. Association rule hiding is a new technique on data mining, which studies the problem of hiding sensitive association rules from within the data.

Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery with Evolutionary Algorithms by Alex A. Freitas
English | PDF | 2002 | 272 Pages | ISBN : 3540433317 | 27.71 MB

This book integrates two areas of computer science, namely data mining and evolutionary algorithms. Both these areas have become increasingly popular in the last few years, and their integration is currently an area of active research. In general, data mining consists of extracting knowledge from data. In this book we particularly emphasize the importance of discovering comprehensible and interesting knowledge, which is potentially useful to the reader for intelligent decision making.
