This monograph embarks on a comprehensive exploration of approaches, evaluation methods, and ethical considerations in explainable and interactive systems for robotic applications, distinctly focusing on intelligent systems that are specifically designed for learning automated agents.Given the increasing integration of robots in daily life, it is crucial to focus on intelligent systems that not only can learn and adapt, but also can offer clarity and comprehension for their actions. The interactive component of these systems is thoroughly examined, evaluating the algorithms, the modalities used in interaction, and the significance of mixed-initiative and shared autonomy. Adaptive and adaptable methods, emphasizing the centrality of user-inspired research and personalized approaches in interactive robotics are highlighted. Also included is a rigorous examination of safety and ethical considerations of these intelligent systems, including aspects of transparency, privacy, accountability, biases, and psychological well-being. The monograph evaluates existing metrics and benchmarking standards for such systems and explores their practical applications across domains such as healthcare, domestic tasks, and industrial automation. The monograph concludes with key insights and directions for future research, and design guidelines and points of consensus for each subject are included in order to equip readers with a nuanced understanding of current trends and tools in explainable and interactive robotic systems, paving the way for informed research and application in this dynamic field.

Set Change

Set Change

Yuri Andrukhovych; Ostap Kin

New York Review Books
2024
nidottu
The first comprehensive English-language collection of one of the most important voices in contemporary Ukrainian literature, a collection of poems about the region's history of violence as seen through geography, myth, and city life. Yuri Andrukhovych, one of the most significant voices in contemporary Ukrainian literature, began his career as a poet, producing three collections and two separately published poem cycles in the 1980s and '90s, the late Soviet and early post-Soviet period, a time of great political change and artistic revolution. Set Change: Selected Poems presents for the first time in English comprehensive selections from all three collections and both cycles. In modern Ukrainian letters, Andrukhovych occupies a position similar to the literary giant Nikolai Gogol. While his influence is broad and significant, he is constantly reinventing himself as a writer: His work represents everything playful, free-spirited, and new, and epitomizes all the most original aspects of Ukrainian literature. The poems collected here showcase the poet's prolonged quest for a representation of--and response to--the region's history of violence. In this quest Andrukhovych explores various settings and themes of geography, investigates the shifting borders of eastern Europe, and invokes a gamut of myths and fantastical elements set in the territory of present-day Ukraine. The cornerstone of his poems is a deep fascination with the idea of the city. Andrukhovych's vivid descriptions lend themselves to his investigations of the carnivalesque and the grotesque, two of the city's most significant aspects. His deep interest in the baroque, his obsession with verbal play and irony, the elegiac mode, the many hidden as well as overt allusions to other literary works and writers, and his need for textual experimentation are the elements that make his poems arresting, timely, and perpetually fascinating. The poems in Set Change are translated by the award-winning duo of Ostap Kin and John Hennessy, with support from the National Endowment for the Arts.

This book is developed for teaching a one semester course in credit risk management at postgraduate and advanced undergraduate levels as the first university course in financial risk management. Readers are assumed no prior knowledge in financial risk management. This revolutionary approach aims to broaden the lectures on credit risk management to the majority of students who intend to work in the financial industry. Recognizing that credit risk is the largest risk exposure in financial institutions, this book also seeks to answer the questions that are often raised by practitioners who actually work in the field of credit risk management. Riding on the Basel III framework, the solutions are delivered by contemporary techniques conforming to the latest regulatory standards. This fills immediately the gap between the working requirements in the office and the academic knowledge in the laboratory. Simply speaking, this book answers specifically the common questions of "how to" in the field of credit risk management. The presentation slides accompanying this book are available on the book website: https: //sites.google.com/site/crmbasel

Known for her expansive multidisciplinary approach to art making Vancouver-based Dana Claxton, who is Hunkpapa Lakota (Sioux), has investigated notions of Indigenous identity, beauty, gender and the body, as well as broader social and political issues through a practice which encompasses photography, film, video and performance. Rooted in contemporary art strategies, her practice critiques the representations of Indigenous people that circulate in art, literature and popular culture in general. In doing so, Claxton regularly combines Lakota traditions with “Western” influences, using a powerful and emotive “mix, meld and mash” approach to address the oppressive legacies of colonialism and to articulate Indigenous world views, histories and spirituality. This timely catalogue will be the first monograph to examine the full breadth and scope of Claxton’s practice. It will be extensively illustrated and will include essays by Claxton’s colleague Jaleh Mansoor, Associate Professor in the Department of Art History, Visual Art & Theory at the University of British Columbia; Monika Kin Gagnon, Professor in the Communications Department at Concordia University, who has followed Claxton’s work for 25 years; Olivia Michiko Gagnon, a New York–based scholar and doctoral student in Performance Studies; and Grant Arnold, Audain Curator of British Columbia Art at the Vancouver Art Gallery.

Online Capacity Provisioning for Energy-Efficient Datacenters

Online Capacity Provisioning for Energy-Efficient Datacenters

Springer International Publishing AG
2022

This book addresses the urgent issue of massive and inefficient energy consumption by data centers, which have become the largest co-located computing systems in the world and process trillions of megabytes of data every second. Dynamic provisioning algorithms have the potential to be the most viable and convenient of approaches to reducing data center energy consumption by turning off unnecessary servers, but they incur additional costs from being unable to properly predict future workload demands that have only recently been mitigated by advances in machine-learned predictions.This book explores whether it is possible to design effective online dynamic provisioning algorithms that require zero future workload information while still achieving close-to-optimal performance. It also examines whether characterizing the benefits of utilizing the future workload information can then improve the design of online algorithms with predictions in dynamic provisioning. The book specifically develops online dynamic provisioning algorithms with and without the available future workload information. Readers will discover the elegant structure of the online dynamic provisioning problem in a way that reveals the optimal solution through divide-and-conquer tactics. The book teaches readers to exploit this insight by showing the design of two online competitive algorithms with competitive ratios characterized by the normalized size of a look-ahead window in which exact workload prediction is available.

Fuzzy Portfolio Optimization

Fuzzy Portfolio Optimization

Most of the existing portfolio selection models are based on the probability theory. Though they often deal with the uncertainty via probabilistic - proaches, we have to mention that the probabilistic approaches only partly capture the reality. Some other techniques have also been applied to handle the uncertainty of the ?nancial markets, for instance, the fuzzy set theory [Zadeh (1965)]. In reality, many events with fuzziness are characterized by probabilistic approaches, although they are not random events. The fuzzy set theory has been widely used to solve many practical problems, including ?nancial risk management. By using fuzzy mathematical approaches, quan- tative analysis, qualitative analysis, the experts’ knowledge and the investors’ subjective opinions can be better integrated into a portfolio selection model. The contents of this book mainly comprise of the authors’ research results for fuzzy portfolio selection problems in recent years. In addition, in the book, the authors will also introduce some other important progress in the ?eld of fuzzy portfolio optimization. Some fundamental issues and problems of po- folioselectionhavebeenstudiedsystematicallyandextensivelybytheauthors to apply fuzzy systems theory and optimization methods. A new framework for investment analysis is presented in this book. A series of portfolio sel- tion models are given and some of them might be more e?cient for practical applications. Some application examples are given to illustrate these models by using real data from the Chinese securities markets.

Pochemu zhe pamjat zastavljaet perezhivat sobytija zanovo i my v podrobnostjakh pomnim to, chego nikogda ne bylo? Avtor privodit pronzitelnye istorii svoikh patsientov, v kotorye trudno poverit. Na protjazhenii 36 let ona issleduet mozg i raskryvaet: kak vospominanija formirujut nas i opredeljajut buduschee kazhdogo cheloveka. Veronika O'Kin ispolzuet poslednie nejrobiologicheskie issledovanija, chtoby otvetit na voprosy: - kak vospominanija mogut vyzyvat v nas drozh ili, naoborot, priliv sil; - pochemu my chuvstvuem zapakhi i prikosnovenija, kotorykh net na samom dele; - suschestvujut li "istinnye" i "lozhnye" vospominanija; - kak ubeditsja v tom, chto proiskhodjaschee vokrug nas sejchas - realno; - kakim obrazom folklor i literatura pomogajut uchenym v izuchenii pamjati. Ob avtore Veronika O'Kin - psikhiatr i nejrobiolog, vedet nauchnuju dejatelnost v Triniti-kolledzhe v Dubline.
