Lung cancer remains the major cancer killer in both sexes worldwide. It is so despite significant progress in recent decades in both diagnostic and treatment approaches. New biological and technological advances in this field are now faster incorporated in the overall decision-making process and are bringing fast and substantial improvements in both survivals and quality of life of lung cancer patients. Optimized patient-oriented approaches are reality of the third decade of this millennium and thoracic oncologists strive towards nothing but seamlessly delivering it in a continuous battle with lung cancer.  Free Download Advances in Near-Field Optics by Reuven Gordon English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 236 Pages | ISBN : 3031347412 | 47.7 MB This book brings together tutorial-style expository chapters on both foundational material and current research areas in near-field optics. The starting point for the book was the Summer School at the 16th International Conference on Near-Field Optics, Nanophotonics and Related Techniques (2022), with each Summer School short course represented by a chapter, along with an additional specially selected chapter on a complementary topic. Together, the chapters within present a modern perspective of the area of near-field optics, focusing on recent theoretical approaches, but also capturing the evolution of the field. Each chapter is written by an internationally-recognized expert and provides a tutorial on a different aspects of the theory and analytical methods for near-field optics, nanophotonics, and plasmonics. While the material will be accessible at the graduate level, it will also provide a useful reference for established researchers in near-field optics and scientists in nearby fields.

Free Download Advances in Industrial Robotics and Intelligent Systems by António Paulo Moreira, Pedro Neto and Félix Vidal English | PDF | 2023 | 322 Pages | ISBN : 303656554X | 84.1 MB Robotics and intelligent systems are key technologies to promote efficient and innovative applications in the most diverse domains (industry, healthcare, agriculture, construction, mobility, etc.), performing and supporting activities that are not suitable to be performed by humans. Such activities are frequently time-consuming, repetitive tasks with low added value, which are physically demanding and/or dangerous., robotics and intelligent systems face several scientific and technological challenges related to their integration and interoperability with other systems, safety, flexibility, re-configurability and autonomy. These challenges are especially relevant when robots operate in real unstructured environments and share a workspace with humans and other equipment. This book collects research achievements, ideas, and applications regarding advanced intelligent robotic systems, covering diverse technologies and application domains. Generically, the contributions cover optimal path-planning strategies and innovative designs for mobile manipulators, the integration of robotic and intelligent systems, grasping, manipulation, teleoperation, haptics, user experience approaches for collaborative robots, and multi-agent systems.  Free Download Advances in Glaucoma Surgery by Michele Figus, Karl Mercieca English | PDF | 2023 | 284 Pages | ISBN : N/A | 18.2 MB Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible sight loss worldwide, with a prevalence of 64.3 million in 2013 and an estimated increase to 111.8 million by 2040 [1]. The initial treatment for glaucoma usually comprises topical medication, but further procedures depend on the type of glaucoma, disease stage and severity, and several individual factors, including age, life expectancy, treatment adherence, quality of life, and both patients' and clinicians' personal choices. Irrespective of all these factors, surgical intervention may still be required in those patients with significant progression and uncontrolled disease despite maximum medical therapy.

Free Download Advances in Cognitive Informatics and Cognitive Computing by Yingxu Wang, Du Zhang, Witold Kinsner English | PDF | 2010 | 301 Pages | ISBN : 3642160824 | 8.3 MB Cognitive Informatics (CI) is the science of cognitive information processing and its applications in cognitive computing. CI is a transdisciplinary enquiry of computer science, information science, cognitive science, and intelligence science that investigates into the internal information processing mechanisms and processes of the brain. Advances and engineering applications of CI have led to the emergence of cognitive computing and the development of Cognitive Computers (CCs) that reason and learn. As initiated by Yingxu Wang and his colleagues, CC has emerged and developed based on the transdisciplinary research in CI, abstract intelligence (aI), and denotational mathematics after the inauguration of the series of IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Informatics since 2002 at Univ. of Calgary, Stanford Univ., and Tsinghua Univ., etc. |
