The Beginning of the End

The Beginning of the End

The dead rise... A mysterious incident in Russia, a blip buried in the news--it's the only warning humanity receives that civilization will soon be destroyed by a single, voracious virus that creates monsters of men. Humanity falls... A lawyer, still grieving over the death of his young wife, begins to write as a form of therapy. Bur he never expected that his anonymous blog would ultimately record humanity's last days. The end of the world has begun... Governments scramble to stop the zombie virus, people panic, so-called "Safe Havens" are established, the world erupts into chaos; soon it's every man, woman, and child for themselves. Armed only with makeshift weapons and the will to live, a lone survivor will give mankind one last chance against... Apocalypse Z
Taxing a Polluting Monopoly with Private Information

Taxing a Polluting Monopoly with Private Information

Firms have usually more information about their technology than third parties, and this may be used opportunistically. This book examines how a regulator can mitigate the potential opportunistic behaviour of a polluting monopolist, when imposing taxes in a context of asymmetric information about the firm's production and emissions technology. A two-period dynamic signalling model is used in which the asymmetric information problem is resolved when production and emissions levels are publicly observed at the beginning of the second period. Results were found that highlight that whenever the regulator's environmental conscience is sufficiently high, the monopolist wishes to be perceived as a firm that pollutes a low amount. As a reaction, the regulator better aligns its incentives with those of the polluting firm by charging a tax not higher than that imposed, in expected terms, under the context of symmetric information.

This practical resource provides an overview of machine learning (ML) approaches as applied to electromagnetics and antenna array processing. Detailed coverage of the main trends in ML, including uniform and random array processing (beamforming and detection of angle of arrival), antenna optimization, wave propagation, remote sensing, radar, and other aspects of electromagnetic design are explored. An introduction to machine learning principles and the most common machine learning architectures and algorithms used today in electromagnetics and other applications is presented, including basic neural networks, gaussian processes, support vector machines, kernel methods, deep learning, convolutional neural networks, and generative adversarial networks. Applications in electromagnetics and antenna array processing that are solved using machine learning are discussed, including antennas, remote sensing, and target classification.

In her first adventure, nine year Punchi overcame her fears, doubts and anxieties by climbing Mount Fear. Now some weeks on, Punchi is drawn to go deeper into her enquiring mind and wonder about How About Opening The Door to Love. This leads her to more complex issues like self-love, compassion and how to still deal with self-doubt. So come and join her as she takes us on another adventure, this time with the aid of her grandma. Now that Punchi has climbed Mount fear and feeling a bit more self-assured.
Level Doubling Network and Ripple Correlation Control MPPT Algorithm for Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Systems
This book describes an original improvement in power quality of photovoltaic generation systems obtained by the use of a multilevel inverter implemented with level doubling network (LDN). Modulation principles and harmonic analysis of output voltages are proposed and introduced in detail for both single and three-phase LDN configurations. The analysis is then extended to dc-link current and voltage, with emphasis to low-frequency harmonics and switching frequency ripple. This work represents the first comprehensive implementation of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) schemes using the ripple correlation control (RCC) algorithm in the presence of multiple ripple harmonics, such as in the case of multi­level inverters. Numerical simulations and experimental tests are carefully reported here, together with practical insights into the design of dc-link capacitors.
Polyphenols and the Mediterranean Diet

Polyphenols and the Mediterranean Diet

This book focuses on polyphenols in the Mediterranean diet, providing a detailed overview of their chemical structure, extraction and analysis methods, and their role in the diet and in flavor. Phenols are important not only in terms of preventing a number of diseases due to their antimicrobial and antioxidant effects, but also in shaping our perception of foods. The first chapter discusses consumers’ sensory assessment of foods containing polyphenols in terms of flavor and color, as well as the chemical properties and natural sources of phenolic compounds. The second chapter examines hygiene and safety claims with respect to naturally occurring polyphenols, especially in connection with organoleptic features. The third and final chapter examines the dietary sources of these molecules from various fruits, including processed products such as infusions, wines, oils and olives. Given its scope, this book is a valuable resource for researchers in academia and industryinterested in food safety, hygiene and production issues related to the Mediterranean diet.

The book consolidates systems thinking as a new world-hypothesis that is already suggesting itself behind the advancement of quantum mechanics and Ashby’s cybernetics. In particular, it shows how Einstein’s misgivings about quantum mechanics boil down to his persistence in defending the principle of contiguity at the root of the modern cosmology and, in relation to neo-cybernetics, the book rediscovers Ashby’s theory of adaptive behaviour enabling a new synthesis between physiology, psychology and ethology that has implications for systems practice. Furthermore, this new “cosmology” comes with a new “anthropology” that informs utopics, the science of utopic systems, and sheds new light on the actual founding fathers of the domain of human science. In particular, the book provides an understanding of how our human world works and how it is being constituted by utopic systems that look into the future to realize something possible. Finally, it points the way to the future unification of knowledge bringing together systems philosophy and systems science given that world-hypothesis is what makes logically possible the development and consolidation of all the different domains of science.

Epistolary Constructions of Post-World War I Identity

Epistolary Constructions of Post-World War I Identity

This book analyses the letters of marginalised groups of World War I soldiers - including Black, Indian and disabled ex-servicemen - from a linguistic perspective, looking at issues such as descriptions of disability, identity and migration, dealing with minority groups who have long been rendered invisible, and exploring how these writers position themselves in relation to the 'other'. The author makes use of a corpus-assisted approach to examine identity construction and performance, shedding light on a previously under-explored demographic. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of World War I history, language and identity, psychological and physical disability, as well as readers seeking a fresh angle on a key period of 20th century history.

Support Vector Machines (SVM) were introduced in the early 90's as a novel nonlinear solution for classification and regression tasks. These techniques have been proved to have superior performances in a large variety of real world applications due to their generalization abilities and robustness against noise and interferences. This book introduces a set of novel techniques based on SVM that are applied to antenna array processing and electromagnetics. In particular, it introduces methods for linear and nonlinear beamforming and parameter design for arrays and electromagnetic applications.
