This book maximizes reader insights into the field of mathematical models and methods for the processing of two-dimensional remote sensing images. It presents a broad analysis of the field, encompassing passive and active sensors, hyperspectral images, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), interferometric SAR, and polarimetric SAR data. At the same time, it addresses highly topical subjects involving remote sensing data types (e.g., very high-resolution images, multiangular or multiresolution data, and satellite image time series) and analysis methodologies (e.g., probabilistic graphical models, hierarchical image representations, kernel machines, data fusion, and compressive sensing) that currently have primary importance in the field of mathematical modelling for remote sensing and image processing. Each chapter focuses on a particular type of remote sensing data and/or on a specific methodological area, presenting both a thorough analysis of the previous literature and a methodological and experimental discussion of at least two advanced mathematical methods for information extraction from remote sensing data. This organization ensures that both tutorial information and advanced subjects are covered. With each chapter being written by research scientists from (at least) two different institutions, it offers multiple professional experiences and perspectives on each subject. The book also provides expert analysis and commentary from leading remote sensing and image processing researchers, many of whom serve on the editorial boards of prestigious international journals in these fields, and are actively involved in international scientific societies. Providing the reader with a comprehensive picture of the overall advances and the current cutting-edge developments in the field of mathematical models for remote sensing image analysis, this book is ideal as both a reference resource and a textbook for graduate and doctoral students as well as for remote sensing scientists and practitioners.
Psychosomatik spielt in der Gastroenterologie eine bisher zu wenig beachtete Rolle. Ausf hrlich bespricht dieses Buch die psychosomatischen Aspekte s mtlicher Erkrankungen des Magen-Darm-Traktes. Praxisorientiert erl utert es die Arzt-Patient-Beziehung, die durch Beitr ge Betroffener erg nzt ist. Zudem stellt es psychische Aspekte der endoskopischen Untersuchung und anderer diagnostischer Verfahren vor. Ein eigenes Kapitel behandelt die psychopharmakologische Therapie psychischer St rungen und stellt die Modelle einer integrierten psychosomatischen Versorgung dar. Plus: Verzeichnis von Selbsthilfegruppen. Umfassend, evidenzbasiert, aktuell.
In Projecting Citizenship, Gabrielle Moser gives a comprehensive account of an unusual project produced by the British government’s Colonial Office Visual Instruction Committee at the beginning of the twentieth century—a series of lantern slide lectures that combined geography education and photography to teach schoolchildren around the world what it meant to look and to feel like an imperial citizen. Through detailed archival research and close readings, Moser elucidates the impact of this vast collection of photographs documenting the land and peoples of the British Empire, circulated between 1902 and 1945 in classrooms from Canada to Hong Kong, from the West Indies to Australia. Moser argues that these photographs played a central role in the invention and representation of imperial citizenship. She shows how citizenship became a photographable and teachable subject by tracing the intended readings of the images that the committee hoped to impart to viewers and analyzing how spectators may have used their encounters with these photographs for protest and resistance. Interweaving political and economic history, history of pedagogy, and theories of citizenship with a consideration of the aesthetic and affective dimensions of viewing the lectures, Projecting Citizenship offers important insights into the social inequalities and visual language of colonial rule.
On Global combines sound conceptual work and research in specific sites under the rubric of globalization. It provides the opportunity for scholars, researchers, professors and practitioners to become better acquainted with the different impacts of globalization in contemporary urban environments. This edited volume approaches the specific changes produced by globalization to a series of urban phenomena such as gentrification, competition among cities to attract capital, networks of urban social relations, modernist architecture in developing countries, the crisis of public space, spectacular events as machines of urban growth, urban form and political conditions, among other phenomena in cities around the world at different stages of development. Conceptual and analytical overlaps with other books find a different approach to On Global in that its objective is to provide a thorough analysis of globalization by addressing its specific effects in a selection of urban areas around the world rarely presented in an edited volume.
