Partial Covers, Reducts and Decision Rules in Rough Sets: Theory and Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This monograph is devoted to theoretical and experimental study of partial reducts and partial decision rules on the basis of the study of partial covers. The use of partial (approximate) reducts and decision rules instead of exact ones allows us to obtain more compact description of knowledge contained in decision tables, and to design more precise classifiers. Algorithms for construction of partial reducts and partial decision rules, bounds on minimal complexity of partial reducts and decision rules, and algorithms for construction of the set of all partial reducts and the set of all irreducible partial decision rules are considered. The book includes a discussion on the results of numerous experiments with randomly generated and real-life decision tables. These results show that partial reducts and decision rules can be used in data mining and knowledge discovery both for knowledge representation and for prediction. The results obtained in the monograph can be useful for… [detailed...]

Diku International Summer School on Partial Evaluation, John Hatcliff, Torben . Mogensen, P. Thiemann
Partial Evaluation: Practice and Theory : Diku 1998 International Summer School Copenhagen, Denmark, June 29-July 10, 1998 (Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: As the complexity of software increases, researchers and practicioners continue to seek better techniques for engineering the construction of evolution of software. Partial evaluation is an attractive technology for modern software construction since it provides automatic tools for software specialization and is based on rigorous semantic foundations. This book is based on a school held at DIKU Copenhagen, Denmark in summer 1998 during which leading researchers summarized the state of the art in partial evaluation. The lectures presented survey the foundations of partial evaluation in a clear and rigorous manner and practically introduce several existing partial evaluators with numerous examples. The second part of the book is devoted to more sophisticated theoretical aspects, advances systems and applications, and highlights open problems and challenges. The book is ideally suited for advanced courses and for self study. [detailed...]

Participation Programs in Work Organizations: Past, Present, and Scenarios for the Future

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Employee participation programs have many faces, many definitions, many forms--and they change all the time. Bar-Haim, taking a historical approach, dissects these plans with readable, lucid scholarship, and makes sense of the various confusing experiences others have had with them. He analyzes the shapes and dimensions these plans take, using a variety of conceptual frames from the social and management sciences, suggests practical guidelines to operationalize them, then adds a number of highly plausible scenarios for what these plans could look like in the near and perhaps distant future. Students, scholars, researchers, and human resource executives will all find this an important, useful source of action-oriented information. [detailed...]

Participatory It Design: Designing for Business and Workplace Realities

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The goal of participatory IT design is to set sensible, general, and workable guidelines for the introduction of new information technology systems into an organization. Reflecting the latest systems-development research, this book encourages a business-oriented and socially sensitive approach that takes into consideration the specific organizational context as well as first-hand knowledge of users` work practices and allows all stakeholders -- users, management, and staff -- to participate in the process. Participatory IT Design is a guide to the theory and practice of this process that can be used as a reference work by IT professionals and as a textbook for classes in information technology at introductory through advanced levels. Drawing on the work of a ten-year research program in which the authors worked with Danish and American companies, the book offers a framework for carrying out IT design projects as well as case studies that stand as examples of the process. … [detailed...]

Participatory Planning in the Caribbean: Lessons from Practice

2003 y.
Publisher: Ashgate
Description: Until recently, planning and development in the Caribbean have been `top-down`, `centre-out` and `expert-led`. For a few years now, though, the region has bowed to the global trend and has experimented with participatory planning methods. `Participatory planning` is heralded by much of the development community as the most appropriate alternative strategy to the traditional approaches. In this volume, a range of experts drawn from the Caribbean, the United Kingdom and the United States review the current achievements and future prospects for genuinely participative planning in the Caribbean region at the beginning of the 21st Century. Bringing together a wide range of case studies from both the insular Caribbean as well as mainland Central and South America, the book examines issues such as protected area planning, sustainable development councils, gender and development, inner-city redevelopment and community empowerment.

Participatory Research Methodologies

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Participatory research methodologies have been used since the 1970s as a tool to garner accurate information about communities in which development practitioners operate. Their usefulness as a collection of research techniques has been evident in academic disciplines such as politics, sociology, anthropology and economics, among others. This informative text assesses the use of participatory methods as a research tool in the contexts of development and reconstruction after conflict and disasters by identifying cross-cutting themes and establishing a comparative lessons-learned framework that can help inform future uses of them, both for practitioners and researchers. More importantly, rather than adopting a prescriptive perspective, this book provides a critical analysis of such methodologies. Specifically, the reader will benefit from the collation of the experiences of those who utilize participatory research methods in different countries and contexts, and from different academic… [detailed...]

Particle Detection with Drift Chambers (Particle Acceleration and Detection)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This volume presents a thorough introduction to the theory and operation of drift chambers, one of the most important modern methods of elementary particle detection. The topics, presented in a text-book style with many illustrations, include the basics of gas ionization, by particles and by lasers, drift of electrons and ions in gases and signal creation and discuss in depth the fundamental limits of accuracy and the issue of particle identification. The book also surveys all types of drift chambers and the various drift-chamber gases in use. The calculation of the device parameters and physical processes are presented in some detail, as is all necessary background material. Thus the treatment, well beyond addressing the specialist in the field, is well suited to graduate physics students and nuclear engineers seeking a both thorough and pedagogical introduction to the field. The second edition presents a completely revised, updated and expanded version of this classic text. In… [detailed...]

Particles and Nuclei: An Introduction to the Physical Concepts

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This well-established textbook gives a uniform and unique presentation of both nuclear and particle physics. Analysis, Part 1, is devoted to disentangling the substructure of matter. This part shows that experiments designed to uncover the substructures of nuclei and nucleons have a similar conceptual basis, and lead to the present picture of all matter being built out of a small number of elementary building blocks and a small number of fundamental interactions. Synthesis, Part 2, shows how the elementary particles may be combined to build hadrons and nuclei. The fundamental interactions responsible for the forces in all systems become less and less evident in increasingly complex systems. A section on neutrino oscillations and one on nuclear matter at high temperatures bridge the field of `nuclear and particle physics` and `modern astrophysics and cosmology`. The new edition incorporates a large amount of new experimental results on deep inelastic scattering (obtained at the… [detailed...]

Parting at the Crossroads

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: As almost all newspaper or magazine readers know, Canada figured prominently in the turbulent U.S. debates over health care reform in the early Clinton presidency. Furthermore, future news analysts and policymakers will undoubtedly again use Canada to cite the `good` and the `bad` aspects of single-payer national health insurance. Beyond the debate about the desirability of Canadian-style health care reforms, Antonia Maioni sees another question: Why did the United States and Canada, alike in so many ways, part `at the crossroads` to produce such different systems of health insurance? She answers this previously neglected query so interestingly that her book will hold the attention of anyone concerned with health care in either country or both. The author explores the development of health insurance in the United States and Canada, from the emergence of health care as a political issue in the 1930s to the passage of federal health insurance legislation in the 1960s. Focusing on how… [detailed...]

Description: For most of his life, John Creed never gave much thought to an afterlife. That all changed the day he died. He`d been clinically dead for ten minutes. At least, that`s what the doctors told him when he woke up in intensive care. It had been a freak accident, they said. A school bus suddenly turned in front of his red convertible, smashing it to bits. By all odds, that should have been it. John`s injuries had been grave. His heart had stopped and been restarted.He`d flatlined. His brain showed no signs of activity. Only sheer stubbornness kept the doctors from pulling the plug. Then, days later, he suddenly, mysteriously woke up - confused, in pain, but very much alive. At first, he didn`t remember much of what had happened. But then, the dreams began … The accident itself, in vivid, second-by-second detail. The face of the woman who had been driving the bus - a face twisted with pure hatred. The long hours in the trauma center, as he… [detailed...]
