Advances in Speech and Music Technology: Computational Aspects and Applications English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031184432 | 752 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 57 MB This book presents advances in speech and music in the domain of audio signal processing. The book begins with introductory chapters on the basics of speech and music, and then proceeds to computational aspects of speech and music, including music information retrieval and spoken language processing. The authors discuss the intersection in the field of computer science, musicology and speech analysis, and how the multifaceted nature of speech and music information processing requires unique algorithms, systems using sophisticated signal processing, and machine learning techniques that better extract useful information. The authors discuss how a deep understanding of both speech and music in terms of perception, emotion, mood, gesture and cognition is essential for successful application. Also discussed is the overwhelming amount of data that has been generated across the world that requires efficient processing for better maintenance, retrieval, indexing and querying and how machine learning and artificial intelligence are most suited for these computational tasks. The book provides both technological knowledge and a comprehensive treatment of essential topics in speech and music processing. Advances in Glass Research English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031202651 | 734 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 79 MB This book covers preparation methods, characterization, and applications of most glass families.It reports thefundamentals of glass, challenges in the development, traditional and new manufacturing processes, characterization techniques, structural, thermal, and optical properties. The book reviews redox reactions in glasses and the factors affecting them, in addition to the techniques for determining the redox states and speciation of polyvalent ions in glass. Aspecial chapter is dedicate to phosphateglasses, their importance, preparation methods, structureandproperties. The use of different types of phosphate glasses in biomedicine, optics, electrochemistry, and as hosts for nuclear wastes isthoroughly discussed.Moreover, the applications of phosphate glasses in electronics and laser technology are also discussed in this book. Recent experimental studies such as the development of a novel bioglass system and the influence of ZnO, TiO2,and Al2O3incorporation on structural, mechanical strength, degradation, pH variation, and formation of hydroxyapatite (Hap) layer on the glass surfaceare reported.Promising aluminum-silicate glassy system and its glass-ceramic counterpartare also presented in this books.An overview of the calorimetry approaches related to rare earth improvements on the thermal stability of glassis provided.The book discusses the advances in the chalcogenide glasses (ChGs) and based devices. It also reportstheir applications in optical devices, semiconductor circuits, and other applications. In addition, lanthanide and/or QDs doped luminescent glasses and their use in solid-state lighting and displays, security (anti-counterfeiting), optical temperature sensors, and solar energy (solar spectrum conversion)are reviewed along with a comparison of their advantages and disadvantages. Finally, the nature of phthalocyanines as materials for glass coatings and most widely used synthesis methods of porphyrins and phthalocyanines are discussed. Advanced Solutions and Practical Applications in Road Traffic Engineering English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031223586 | 271 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 38 MB This book presents many valuable tips for making decisions related to traffic flow in transport networks. The knowledge base in practical examples, as well as the decision support systems described in this book, finds interest among people who face the daily challenge of searching for advanced solutions and practical applications in road traffic engineering. The publication is therefore addressed to local authorities related to the planning and development of development strategies for selected areas with regard to transport (both in the urban and regional dimension) and to representatives of business and industry, as people directly involved in the implementation of traffic engineering solutions.
Actology : Action, Change, and Diversity in the Western Philosophical Tradition by Malcolm Torry English | 2020 | ISBN: 172526675X | 260 Pages | True ePUB | 1.04 MB Michael Howe, "Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound" English | ISBN: 1107044405 | 2014 | 304 pages | PDF | 9 MB Music, calm speech, whispering leaves fluttering in a breeze are pleasant and desirable sounds. Noise, howling gales, explosions and screeching traffic are less so. A quantitative understanding of the sources of all such sounds can be obtained by careful analysis of the mechanical equations of motion. This is provided by Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound, which serves as a short, one semester introduction to acoustics and aerodynamic sound at the advanced undergraduate and graduate level. Sound is treated as a branch of fluid mechanics, which is possible because students embarking on an advanced course in acoustics will be familiar with this topic. It is also desirable because an ability to relate acoustic events to hydrodynamic phenomena provides insight into acoustic principles, in particular into the role of vorticity in the mechanics of sound production by vibrating bodies and in the scattering and diffraction of sound. Acing the Certified Kubernetes Administrator Exam (MEAP V05) English | 2022 | ISBN: 1633439097 | 289 pages | PDF,EPUB | 24.4 MB Becoming a Kubernetes administrator is a big accomplishment-and passing the Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) exam can be a big boost to your career! Learn the hands-on skills you need to ace the exam with clear teaching and hands-on exercises that match the unique CKA test environment. Achieving Our World: Toward a Global and Plural Democracy By Fred Reinhard Dallmayr 2001 | 223 Pages | ISBN: 0742511847 | PDF | 17 MB Referring to Richard Rorty's "Achieving Our Country" in his title, yet rejecting Rorty's focus as both ethnocentric and too limited, Dallmayr presents a philosophical and political examination of the alternatives to globalization. Separating the philosophical and political sections of the book, yet insisting that the two are inextricably linked, he first examines the possibilities for cosmopolitan democracy to arise from grassroots movements intimately connected to local cultural traditions, rather than imposed from above by the West. Next, he looks at concepts of self vs. other and cross-cultural encounters as foundational ideas for the process of achieving global democracy.
Tamilla Mammadova, "Academic Writing and Information Literacy Instruction in Digital Environments: A Complementary Approach" English | ISBN: 3031191595 | 2022 | 246 pages | PDF | 5 MB This book offers an interdisciplinary approach to the teaching of academic writing and information literacy in a new digital dimension, drawing on recent trends towards project-based writing, digital writing and multimodal writing in Education, and synthesising theory with practice to provide a handy toolkit for teachers and researchers. The author combines a practical orientation to teaching academic writing and information literacy with a grounding in current theories of writing instruction in the digitalized era, and argue that as digital environments become more universal in modern society - particularly in the aftermath of the coronavirus pandemic - the lines between traditional academic writing and multi-modal digital writing must necessary become blurred. This book will be of use to teachers and instructors of academic writing and information literacy, particularly within the context of English for Academic Purposes (EAP), as well as students and researchers in Applied Linguistics, Pedagogy and Digital Writing. |
