English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811239754 | 549 pages | True PDF EPUB | 13.75 MB This book is edited based on a series of lectures on Chinese cultural history delivered at the Peking University in 2004. It stands out with its distinctive methodology and unique stand, and is popular with readers, with 17 reprints for the Chinese edition since 2006.Before the 1980s, traditional culture was often the target of criticisms and put in a negative light in China. After the 1980s, due to the belief that traditional culture can contribute to modernization, people decided to 'take its essence and discard its dregs'. As of today, most books on this theme have been written in accordance with this principle.However, in this book, the author argues that many problems have emerged from the modernization of the Western society, and thus the need for reflection and re-examining. Traditional Chinese culture is a source for comparison and reflection. As such, when we discuss traditional culture nowadays, not only should we excavate its long-hidden meanings, but we should also develop contrastive resources to facilitate our collaborative development in future.The discussions in this book adopt a vertical structure that begins with how Chinese define a human, followed by topics on the human body, Qi, food, male and female, home and state, the relationship between heaven and human beings, ritual systems, historical consciousness, thinking patterns, the art of expressing sentiments, commitments to the politics of virtues and achievements, and cultural practices. In every chapter, there is also a horizontal method of comparison on Chinese, Western and Indian cultures, to foreground the particularities and advantages of the Chinese culture.Apart from elaborating on the major characteristics of traditional Chinese culture, there is also a discussion on how the modern disdain for and misunderstandings of the traditional culture originated from the West. The author also elaborates on Montesquieu's views of China and the various misconceptions and misunderstandings of the traditional Chinese legal systems. Finally, it ends with the author's thoughts on the revitalization of the Chinese civilization. English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811251320 | 540 pages | True PDF EPUB | 52.69 MB Since the publication of the first edition of this monograph, a generalisation of the Assmus-Mattson theorem for linear codes over finite fields has been developed, two 70-year breakthroughs and a considerable amount of other progress on t-designs from linear codes have been made. This second edition is a substantial revision and expansion of the first edition. Two new chapters and two new appendices have been added, and most chapters of the first edition have been revised.It provides a well-rounded and detailed account of t-designs from linear codes. Most chapters of this book cover the support designs of linear codes. A few chapters deal with designs obtained from linear codes in other ways. Connections among ovals, hyperovals, maximal arcs, ovoids, special functions, linear codes and designs are also investigated. This book consists of both classical and recent results on designs from linear codes.It is intended to be a reference for postgraduates and researchers who work on combinatorics, or coding theory, or digital communications, or finite geometry. It can also be used as a textbook for postgraduates in these subject areas.Related Link(s)
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1786349582 | 294 pages | True PDF EPUB | 73.76 MB Deep Learning for EEG-Based Brain-Computer Interfaces is an exciting book that describes how emerging deep learning improves the future development of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) in terms of representations, algorithms and applications. BCI bridges humanity's neural world and the physical world by decoding an individuals' brain signals into commands recognizable by computer devices.This book presents a highly comprehensive summary of commonly-used brain signals; a systematic introduction of around 12 subcategories of deep learning models; a mind-expanding summary of 200+ state-of-the-art studies adopting deep learning in BCI areas; an overview of a number of BCI applications and how deep learning contributes, along with 31 public BCI data sets. The authors also introduce a set of novel deep learning algorithms aimed at current BCI challenges such as robust representation learning, cross-scenario classification, and semi-supervised learning. Various real-world deep learning-based BCI applications are proposed and some prototypes are presented. The work contained within proposes effective and efficient models which will provide inspiration for people in academia and industry who work on BCI. English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811227780 | 389 pages | True PDF EPUB | 20.6 MB This book examines the relationship between cyberspace and sovereignty as understood by jurists and economists. The author transforms and abstracts cyberspace from the perspective of science and technology into the subject, object, platform, and activity in the field of philosophy. From the three dimensions of "ontology" (cognition of cyberspace and information), "epistemology" (sovereignty evolution), and "methodology" (theoretical refinement), he uses international law, philosophy of science and technology, political philosophy, cyber security, and information entropy to conduct cross-disciplinary research on cyberspace and sovereignty to find a scientific and accurate methodology. Cyberspace sovereignty is the extension of modern state sovereignty. Only by firmly establishing the rule of law of cyberspace sovereignty can we reduce cyber conflicts and cybercrimes, oppose cyber hegemony, and prevent cyber war. The purpose of investigating cyberspace and sovereignty is to plan good laws and good governance. This book argues that cyberspace has sovereignty, sovereignty governs cyberspace, and cyberspace governance depends on comprehensive planning. This is a new theory of political philosophy and sovereignty law.
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1538150670 | 217 pages | True PDF, EPUB | 94.15 MB In the late 1960s, student protests broke out throughout much of the world, and while Britain's anti-Vietnam protestors and China's Red Guards were clearly radically different, these movements at times shared inspirations, aspirations, and aesthetics. Within Western popular media, Mao's China was portrayed as a danger to world peace, but at the same time, for some on the counter-cultural left, the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976) contained ideas worthy of exploration. Moreover, because of Britain's continued colonial possession of Hong Kong, Britain had a specific interest in ongoing events in China, and information was highly sought after. Thus, the objects that China exported—propaganda posters, paintings, Mao badges, periodicals, ceramics, etc.—became a crucial avenue through which China was known at this time, and interest in them crossed the political divide. |
