Largely isolated from the world for more than four decades, Myanmar has made a remarkable return to the global stage following a political transformation that represents a watershed moment in the country's history. Now, for the first time ever, the rich culture, stunning landscapes and diverse peoples of the country are presented in a unique visual time capsule. Here is the new Myanmar as seen over a single week by a team of thirty famous photographers from eleven different countries. Their mission? To capture the life and spirit of Myanmar from every angle in every corner of the country.

Geography is not only the study of the surface of the planet and the exploration of spatial and human - environment relationships, but also a way of thinking about the world. Guided by the Australian Curriculum and the Professional Standards for Teaching School Geography (GEOGstandards), Teaching Secondary Geography provides a comprehensive introduction to both the theory and practice of teaching Geography. This text covers fundamental geographical knowledge and skills, such as working with data, graphicacy, fieldwork and spatial technology, and provides practical guidance on teaching them in the classroom. Each chapter features short-answer and 'Pause and Think' questions to enhance understanding of key concepts, and 'Bringing It Together' review questions to consolidate learning. Classroom scenarios and a range of information boxes are provided throughout to connect students to additional material. Written by an author team with extensive teaching experience, Teaching Secondary Geography is an exemplary resource for pre-service teachers.

Leverage Scala and Machine Learning to study and construct systems that can learn from data About This Book • Explore a broad variety of data processing, machine learning, and genetic algorithms through diagrams, mathematical formulation, and updated source code in Scala • Take your expertise in Scala programming to the next level by creating and customizing AI applications • Experiment with different techniques and evaluate their benefits and limitations using real-world applications in a tutorial style Who This Book Is For If you're a data scientist or a data analyst with a fundamental knowledge of Scala who wants to learn and implement various Machine learning techniques, this book is for you. All you need is a good understanding of the Scala programming language, a basic knowledge of statistics, a keen interest in Big Data processing, and this book! What You Will Learn • Build dynamic workflows for scientific computing • Leverage open source libraries to extract patterns from time series • Write your own classification, clustering, or evolutionary algorithm • Perform relative performance tuning and evaluation of Spark • Master probabilistic models for sequential data • Experiment with advanced techniques such as regularization and kernelization • Dive into neural networks and some deep learning architecture • Apply some basic multiarm-bandit algorithms • Solve big data problems with Scala parallel collections, Akka actors, and Apache Spark clusters • Apply key learning strategies to a technical analysis of financial markets In Detail The discovery of information through data clustering and classification is becoming a key differentiator for competitive organizations. Machine learning applications are everywhere, from self-driving cars, engineering design, logistics, manufacturing, and trading strategies, to detection of genetic anomalies. The book is your one stop guide that introduces you to the functional capabilities of the Scala programming language that are critical to the creation of machine learning algorithms such as dependency injection and implicits. You start by learning data preprocessing and filtering techniques. Following this, you'll move on to unsupervised learning techniques such as clustering and dimension reduction, followed by probabilistic graphical models such as Naive Bayes, hidden Markov models and Monte Carlo inference. Further, it covers the discriminative algorithms such as linear, logistic regression with regularization, kernelization, support vector machines, neural networks, and deep learning.

Major Stephen H. Long of the United States Army was the most important government-sponsored explorer in the decade after the War of 1812. He led three major and several minor expeditions up the Mississippi, Missouri, and Arkansas rivers and the Red River of the north, as well as exploring the central and southern Plains, the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, and the Great Lakes. His campanions included engineers, cartographers, Naturalists, ethnologists, and artists, and they gathered a wealth of scientific, military, and artistic data about the interior of North America. For years Long's expeditions have been overlooked or misunderstood; here for the first time they are placed in the context of American scientific development.

Le trend actuel veut que l''on utilise les vibrations appliquees a l''ensemble du corps (Whole body vibration) pour, entre autre, augmenter la force musculaire. C''est de ce point precis que traite cet ouvrage. Le but est d''analyser les eventuelles augmentations de force en fonction des multiples protocoles utilises, des differents parametrages proposes. Il est en effet possible de regler la frequence et l''amplitude de la vibration ainsi que la duree d''exposition. L''analyse s''effectue sur la base d''etudes randomisees controlees (RCTs), repondant a un certain nombre de criteres de selection. Cette revue de la litterature montre qu''il est possible d''obtenir un gain de force musculaire des extenseurs du genou dans des proportions variables. Il semble toutefois ressortir de ces chiffres que la combinaison d''une haute frequence et d''une faible amplitude amene a de meilleurs resultats.

I en representativ demokrati spelar de politiska partierna en viktig roll och forskning om partier och partisystem är ett centralt tema inom statsvetenskaplig analys. I denna breda antologi ges en heltäckande introduktion till studier om politiska partiers och partisystems utveckling och förändring i Sverige, i andra länder och på EU-nivå. I boken presenteras partiforskningens grundläggande teorier om sociala skiljelinjer, partisystem och partityper. Partier som organi­sationer studeras med särskilt fokus på partikultur, partiernas finansiering, partimedlemmar, interndemokrati och partiledare. Partierna relateras till utbud och efterfrågan när radikala högerpopulistpartier, lokala partier, valkampanjer och representation granskas. Partier vid makten analyseras genom utförliga beskrivningar av kampen om inflytande via regeringsbildning, europeisk politik och politiska karriärer. De medverkande författarna är alla forskare som i denna antologi skriver inom sina expertområden och pedagogiskt redogör för aktuell forskning om politiska partier. Partier och partisystem vänder sig i första hand till studenter inom svensk och jämförande politik men är aktuell för alla statsvetare som intresserar sig för frågor om de politiska partiernas roll i den representativa demokratin. Denna tredje upplaga är grundligt reviderad och uppdaterad med hänsyn till aktuella förhållanden.

This engaging volume describes the creation and restoration of the extraordinary large-scale drawing The Temptation of Saint Anthony—a work by late 19th-century Belgian artist James Ensor (1860–1949)—on the occasion of its first public showing in more than 60 years. The piece is composed of 51 separate sheets of paper collaged into a hallucinatory social critique and artist’s manifesto. Each sheet of the nearly six-foot-high work is reproduced at actual size, revealing Ensor’s remarkable technique and fertile imagination. Here, Saint Anthony is surrounded not with nature, as customary, but with the moral decay of society. Replete with tiny scenes depicting both sexual temptation and spiritual piety, Ensor splices potent imagery from travelogues, popular science, and technology magazines into a Symbolist masterpiece. Susan M. Canning, Patrick Florizöone, and Nancy Ireson analyze the drawing’s meaning; Herwig Todts details its origins and early history; and Kimberly J. Nichols recounts the work’s restoration.
