Throughout the greater part of the twentieth century, both in the
analytic and continental traditions, metaphysics was deemed to be
passe. The last few decades, however, have witnessed a remarkable
growth of interest among analytic philosophers in various
traditional metaphysical topics, such as modality, truth,
causality, etc. which resulted in the emergence of various forms of
analytic metaphysics. The new forms of metaphysics differ from its
traditional forms mostly in their methodology (we may notice
various applications of contemporary formal logical techniques) and
in the range of proposed solutions to particular problems. Besides
these and other differences, however, there are also many
similarities and there are even some who intentionally develop
traditional metaphysical themes using the contemporary analytical
methods. All these developments call for detailed exploration,
which is the general goal of the present publication Metaphysics:
Aristotelian, Scholastic, Analytic. The publication is the fruit of
the conference which took place in Prague in 2010 and which had for
its aim to bring together those willing to explore relations
between the traditional and contemporary concerns, both from among
the leading analytic philosophers working in metaphysics and the
historians of philosophy devoted to the study of the metaphysical
tradition. The specific focus of the conference was a
re-examination of topics such as categories, metaphysical
structure, substance and accident, existence, modalities, and
predication."
The quest for unity and multiplicity is one of the most important
concerns in the history of human thought. Since the origins of the
history of philosophy up to the present, we can observe more or
less unceasing interest in the issue. The same holds of the
writings of Thomas Aquinas, to whose conception this work is
devoted. Since the problem of unity and multitude is closely linked
to many other key metaphysical issues, such as the doctrine of
transcendental concepts, the mode of composition of being qua
being, as well as substantial and accidental being, or the doctrine
of whole and part, we believe that its proper interpretation not
only can clarify some partial metaphysical problem, but will also
contribute to understanding the metaphysical thought of the Angelic
Doctor as a whole.
Biomedical Image Synthesis and Simulation: Methods and Applications
presents the basic concepts and applications in image-based
simulation and synthesis used in medical and biomedical imaging.
The first part of the book introduces and describes the simulation
and synthesis methods that were developed and successfully used
within the last twenty years, from parametric to deep generative
models. The second part gives examples of successful applications
of these methods. Both parts together form a book that gives the
reader insight into the technical background of image synthesis and
how it is used, in the particular disciplines of medical and
biomedical imaging. The book ends with several perspectives on the
best practices to adopt when validating image synthesis approaches,
the crucial role that uncertainty quantification plays in medical
image synthesis, and research directions that should be worth
exploring in the future.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th
International Workshop on Simulation and Synthesis in Medical
Imaging, SASHIMI 2021, held in conjunction with MICCAI 2021, in
Strasbourg, France, in September 2021.*The 14 full papers presented
were carefully reviewed and selected from 18 submissions. The
contributions span the following broad categories in alignment with
the initial call-for-papers: methods based on generative models or
adversarial learning for MRI/CT/ microscopy image synthesis, and
several applications of image synthesis and simulation for data
augmentation, image enhancement, or segmentation. *The workshop was
held virtually.
