Adaptive Query Processing

2007 y.
Publisher: Now Publishers Inc
Description: `Adaptive Query Processing` surveys the fundamental issues, techniques, costs, and benefits of adaptive query processing. It begins with a broad overview of the field, identifying the dimensions of adaptive techniques. It then looks at the spectrum of approaches available to adapt query execution at runtime - primarily in a non-streaming context. The emphasis is on simplifying and abstracting the key concepts of each technique, rather than reproducing the full details available in the papers. The authors identify the strengths and limitations of the different techniques, demonstrate when they are most useful, and suggest possible avenues of future research. Adaptive Query Processing serves as a valuable reference for students of databases, providing a thorough survey of the area. Database researchers will benefit from a more complete point of view, including a number of approaches which they may not have focused on within the scope of their own research. [detailed...]

Adaptive Scalarization Methods in Multiobjective Optimization (Vector Optimization)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book presents adaptive solution methods for multiobjective optimization problems based on parameter dependent scalarization approaches. With the help of sensitivity results an adaptive parameter control is developed such that high-quality approximations of the efficient set are generated. These examinations are based on a special scalarization approach, but the application of these results to many other well-known scalarization methods is also presented. Thereby very general multiobjective optimization problems are considered with an arbitrary partial ordering defined by a closed pointed convex cone in the objective space. The effectiveness of these new methods is demonstrated with several test problems as well as with a recent problem in intensity-modulated radiotherapy. The book concludes with a further application: a procedure for solving multiobjective bilevel optimization problems is given and is applied to a bicriteria bilevel problem in medical engineering.

Adaptive image interpolation video de-interlacing and frame rate conversion using wavelet transform

2006 y.
Publisher: ProQuest
Description: Recent developments in the field of semiconductor technology have changed the consumer electronic industry related to video processing. With the advent and merging of various formats and standards through high end display systems, including mobile devices and media center PC`s, the need has arisen for interoperability of various video display formats, in particular high resolution, high frame displays. More specifically, the problem area is post video decoding where the issues are adaptive interpolation, deinterlacing and frame rate conversion to match the format of the high resolution display. This thesis provides algorithms to solve the above-mentioned issues. Wavelet methods are developed to provide highly adaptive algorithms preserving edges in images and motion in video. The proposed algorithm can be implemented in an ASIC. Software is also developed to validate the proposed algorithms. [detailed...]

Adaptivity and Learning: An Interdisciplinary Debate

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Adaptivity and learning have in recent decades become a common concern of scientific disciplines. These issues have arisen in mathematics, physics, biology, informatics, economics, and other fields more or less simultaneously. The aim of this publicationis the interdisciplinary discourse on the phenomenon of learning and adaptivity. Different perspectives are presented and compared to find fruitful concepts for the disciplines involved. The authors select problems showing representative traits concerning the frame up, the methods and the achievements rather than to present extended overviews. [detailed...]

Addicted To Counterfeit Love

2007 y.
Publisher: Kimani Press
Description: Ordained elder and radio personality Vikki Johnson addresses the emotionally crippling behavior of being addicted to counterfeit love. Some people have become so conditioned to being in a pattern of unsatisfying and spiritually draining relationships that they can`t recognize what a truly genuine and loving partnership should be. They become accepting of the lies, anguish and humiliation and train themselves to become numb to the emotional pain. When someone does come along who bestows upon them love, honor and respect, quite frequently they sabotage the relationship simply because they cannot identify it. The negative cycle they are caught up in has them addicted to the counterfeit—the deceptive, fraudulent behavior that weakens their capacity to trust. The words of wisdom that Vikki Johnson delivers will help readers identify destructive behavior and encourage them to demand the love that they are entitled to. God wants us to be in healthy, loving relationships, but our body,… [detailed...]

Addiction Treatment: Science and Policy for the Twenty-first Century

2007 y.
Publisher: The Johns Hopkins University Press
Description: Addiction to alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs is one of the major public health issues of our time. In the United States, one in five deaths is the result of addictive drug use. This innovative book critically examines drug addiction treatment in the United States. It explores specific challenges (scientific, medical, social, and legal) to reaching the goal that treatment for drug addiction should be as accessible as treatments for diseases of the heart, liver, and lungs which often result from the use of addictive drugs. These essays, written by leaders in addiction science, medicine, and health policy, present diverse and often opposing points of view to foster thought and discussion. The book consists of three parts. Part I examines the emerging science and theories that underlie the development of specific models for treating addiction to illicit opioids and stimulants, alcohol, tobacco, and prescription drugs. Part II explores the complications raised by the diversity of… [detailed...]

Description: Joseph McKinley Bryan, Sr. could be intransigent one moment and disarmingly endearing the next. But he was a man with a vision that never faded until a failing body stilled his alert mind just short of his 100th birthday in 1995. Bryan overcame poverty, a mother`s mental illness, a father`s desertion, a distrusting set of in-laws and a lack of formal education to become a builder of people as well as institutions. His good works, and those of his family, are widespread. He was instrumental in thecreation of both commercial and public television in North Carolina and helped build universities and medical facilities. At one time, Bryan was the largest single donor to Duke University, except for the Dukes. Bryan family resources led to creation of the Alzheimer`s research facility at Duke, as well as a student center and major advancements for the Duke Eye Center. But when Duke didn`t fulfill some promises, he withdrew an additional $15 million he intended to give. For all… [detailed...]
