Remediating Sound studies the phenomena of remixing, mashup and
recomposition: forms of reuse and sampling that have come to
characterise much of YouTube's audiovisual content. Through
collaborative composition, collage and cover songs to reaction
videos and political activism , users from diverse backgrounds have
embraced the democratised space of YouTube to open up new and
innovative forms of sonic creativity and push the boundaries of
audiovisual possibilities. Observing the reciprocal flow of
influence that runs between various online platforms, 12 chapters
position YouTube as a central hub for the exploration of digital
sound, music and the moving image. With special focus on aspects of
networked creativity that remain overlooked in contemporary
scholarship, including library music, memetic media, artificial
intelligence, the sonic arts and music fandom, this volume offers
interdisciplinary insight into contemporary audiovisual culture.
Communication based on the internet of things (IoT) generates huge
amounts of data from sensors over time, which opens a wide range of
applications and areas for researchers. The application of
analytics, machine learning, and deep learning techniques over such
a large volume of data is a very challenging task. Therefore, it is
essential to find patterns, retrieve novel insights, and predict
future behavior using this large amount of sensory data. Artificial
intelligence (AI) has an important role in facilitating analytics
and learning in the IoT devices. Applying AI-Based IoT Systems to
Simulation-Based Information Retrieval provides relevant frameworks
and the latest empirical research findings in the area. It is ideal
for professionals who wish to improve their understanding of the
strategic role of trust at different levels of the information and
knowledge society and trust at the levels of the global economy,
networks and organizations, teams and work groups, information
systems, and individuals as actors in the networked environments.
Covering topics such as blockchain visualization, computer-aided
drug discovery, and health monitoring, this premier reference
source is an excellent resource for business leaders and
executives, IT managers, security professionals, data scientists,
students and faculty of higher education, librarians, hospital
administrators, researchers, and academicians.
Artificial intelligence and its various components are rapidly
engulfing almost every professional industry. Specific features of
AI that have proven to be vital solutions to numerous real-world
issues are machine learning and deep learning. These intelligent
agents unlock higher levels of performance and efficiency, creating
a wide span of industrial applications. However, there is a lack of
research on the specific uses of machine/deep learning in the
professional realm. Machine Learning and Deep Learning in Real-Time
Applications provides emerging research exploring the theoretical
and practical aspects of machine learning and deep learning and
their implementations as well as their ability to solve real-world
problems within several professional disciplines including
healthcare, business, and computer science. Featuring coverage on a
broad range of topics such as image processing, medical
improvements, and smart grids, this book is ideally designed for
researchers, academicians, scientists, industry experts, scholars,
IT professionals, engineers, and students seeking current research
on the multifaceted uses and implementations of machine learning
and deep learning across the globe.
This book explores 10 unique facets of Internet health and safety,
including physical safety, information security, and the
responsible use of technology, offering takeaways from interviews
with experts in the field and suggestions for proactively improving
users' Internet safety. The Internet has become for many
people—especially students and young adults—an essential and
intrinsic part of their lives. It makes information available to be
shared worldwide, at any time; enables learning about any topic;
and allows for instantaneous communication. And it provides endless
entertainment as well. But the benefits of online access are
accompanied by serious potential risks. This book covers the key
elements of Internet health and safety, including physical safety,
information security, and the responsible use of technology. It
begins with an introductory essay that gives readers the necessary
conceptual framework, and then explains specific topics such as
cyberbullying, file sharing, online predators, Internet fraud, and
obscene and offensive content. The book also answers readers'
questions in a "Q & A" section with a subject expert and
includes a directory of resources that provides additional
information and serves as a gateway to further study.
Modelling and simulation (M&S) based systems engineering
(MSBSE) is the extension of MBSE, which enhances the value of MBSE
and the ability of digitally evaluating and optimizing the whole
system through comprehensive applications of M&S technologies.
This book puts together the recent research in MSBSE, and hopefully
this will provide the researchers and engineers with reference
cases in M&S technologies to support the R&D of complex
products and systems.
The Internet is now, but the future is the metaverse. The metaverse
is a virtual-reality space in which users can interact with a
computer-generated environment and others. The prediction is that
the next ten years will be the golden era of the metaverse, and
everyone's life, entertainment, social interaction, and work will
increasingly take place in the metaverse world. This book outlines
six important trends in the era of the metaverse, that will see
dramatic changes in technology and the bringing together of digital
and physical worlds. People will experience a great migration of
their social life and economic activities into the metaverse.
Furthermore, the authors argue that, in the metaverse, we can get
rid of many of the constraints of the physical world, achieve a
better self in the new digital space, and truly maximize our own
value as human beings. This book sets out how you can seize the
opportunity of the metaverse era.
It is crucial that forensic science meets challenges such as
identifying hidden patterns in data, validating results for
accuracy, and understanding varying criminal activities in order to
be authoritative so as to hold up justice and public safety.
Artificial intelligence, with its potential subsets of machine
learning and deep learning, has the potential to transform the
domain of forensic science by handling diverse data, recognizing
patterns, and analyzing, interpreting, and presenting results.
Machine Learning and deep learning frameworks, with developed
mathematical and computational tools, facilitate the investigators
to provide reliable results. Further study on the potential uses of
these technologies is required to better understand their benefits.
Aiding Forensic Investigation Through Deep Learning and Machine
Learning Frameworks provides an outline of deep learning and
machine learning frameworks and methods for use in forensic science
to produce accurate and reliable results to aid investigation
processes. The book also considers the challenges, developments,
advancements, and emerging approaches of deep learning and machine
learning. Covering key topics such as biometrics, augmented
reality, and fraud investigation, this reference work is crucial
