Consequently, the complexity of evidence does not allow scientists to cope adequately with the problems it causes, or to make the required inferences. Probability theory, implemented through graphical methods, specifically Bayesian networks, offers a powerful tool to deal with this complexity, and discover valid patterns in data. Bayesian Networks and Probabilistic Inference in Forensic Science provides a unique and comprehensive introduction to the use of Bayesian networks for the evaluation of scientific evidence in forensic science. Includes self-contained introductions to both Bayesian networks and probability. Features implementation of the methodology using HUGIN, the leading Bayesian networks software. Presents basic standard networks that can be implemented in commercially and academically available software packages, and that form the core models necessary for the reader's own analysis of real cases. Provides a technique for structuring problems and organizing uncertain data based on methods and principles of scientific reasoning. Contains a method for constructing coherent and defensible arguments for the analysis and evaluation of forensic evidence. Written in a lucid style, suitable for forensic scientists with minimal mathematical background. Includes a foreword by David Schum. The clear and accessible style makes this book ideal for all forensic scientists and applied statisticians working in evidence evaluation, as well as graduate students in these areas. It will also appeal to scientists, lawyers and other professionals interested in the evaluation of forensic evidence and/or Bayesian networks.

Focusing on those groups formed after the European Reformation who broke with the idea of a state-related dominant church in a given country, and organized denominations unattached to government control, this book explores the beliefs of Methodists, Baptists, Cumberland Presbyterians, Pentecostalists, and Disciples of Christ. Exploring the history of groups deeply rooted in America, from the first immigrants in the 1600s to the Great Awakening of the 1700s and the rise of fundamentalism in the 1800s to today's media-savvy preachers with television congregations, Baptist and Methodist Faiths in America examines the impact of these faiths on the cultural, social, and political life of America. Often evangelical in nature; active participants in the arts and in the field of communications, especially broadcasting; and professing strong positions in the debates over social issues, such as abortion and gay rights, and the policies of the government, including everything from school prayer to education funding; these groups have played and continue to play an important role in American society.
Banking on Stability: Japan and the Cross-Pacific Dynamics of International Financial Crisis Management By Saori N. Katada 2001 | 314 Pages | ISBN: 0472112112 | PDF | 2 MB Saori N. Katada examines international financial stability in the aftermath of financial crises--and how such stability is maintained through collective action among major financial powers across the Pacific, the United States, and Japan. She explores the important role that financial support by the Japanese government played in solving the Latin American debt crisis in the 1980s, as well as its lack of support for the Mexican rescue in 1994--95 and its inconsistency during the recent Asian financial crisis. Banking on Stability looks at Japan's willingness to cooperate financially with the United States--its most important trade partner--in cases where such compliance yields an improvement in relations. Katada argues that the Japanese government carefully weighs the benefits arising in international and domestic realms when taking on the role of collective crisis manager and concludes that Japan is no exception in having private gain as a central motivation during international financial crises. Saori Katada is Assistant Professor, School of International Relations, University of Southern California.
