Book Description
The third book of the Aṅguttara Nikāya, the Collection of the Numbered Discourses of the Buddha, collects 352 suttas or discourses whose subject matter focuses on groups of three topics. For example, suttas are collected, not exhaustively, that speak of the three emotional reactions: pleasant, unpleasant and indifferent. There are other suttas included in other collections that are not in this one. The book of threes breaks with the purely mnemonic mechanics of the "matika" series of the first two books. This is a book made to be read. Even so, both its subject matter and content are far from interesting since they neither relate the life of the Buddha nor include unique doctrinal principles. Perhaps the sutta of greatest interest is AN 3.65: With the kālāmas of Kesamutta, which is about adopting a belief based on results rather than fallacies. It is a lengthy and interesting sutta. On the opposite side and marked with a double asterisk (**), we find a pair of extemporaneous suttas, out of context, with a particular structure and a spurious content. They are the suttas AN 3.80: Minor and AN 3.107: Lamentations. "Minor" is a discourse similar both structurally and in content to the decadent suttas that Gogerly encountered upon his arrival in Sri Lanka in the nineteenth century, characterized by depicting the Buddha as somewhere between mythological and fantastic being endowed with magical powers, much to the taste of Eastern excess. So we can here see the Buddha giving voices heard in all the galaxies and, at the end of the sutta, the imagination runs wild when the Buddha becomes a prophet, predicting that: "Ānanda will be extinguished in the present life", which turned out to be false. Every false sutta has a bastard intention, and in this case it is to rivet the orthodoxy and trustworthiness of one of the leaders of the First Council who, far from being worthy, did not even achieve anything since he was more occupied in the robe dealing than in practice. The other apocryphal sutta is AN 3.107: Lamentations, a strangely structured sutta that amounts to a scolding against people who hear music, or laugh. The author did not dare to assign to the Buddha the authorship of the rebuke and left it at a simple "it is considered".

Book Description
This book is intended for those having only a moderate background in mathematics, who need to increase their mathematical knowledge for development in their areas of work and to read the related mathematical literature. The material covered, which includes practically all the information on functional analysis that may be necessary for those working in various areas of applications of mathematics, as well as the simplicity of presentation, differentiates this book from others. About 300 examples and more than 500 problems are provided to help readers understand and master the theories presented. The list of references enables readers to explore those topics in which they are interested, and gather further information about applications used as examples in the book.Applications: Probability Theory and Statistics, Signal and Image Processing, Systems Analysis and Design.

Book Description
Lectures in General Algebra is a translation from the Russian and is based on lectures on specialized courses in general algebra at Moscow University. The book starts with the basics of algebra. The text briefly describes the theory of sets, binary relations, equivalence relations, partial ordering, minimum condition, and theorems equivalent to the axiom of choice. The text gives the definition of binary algebraic operation and the concepts of groups, groupoids, and semigroups. The book examines the parallelism between the theory of groups and the theory of rings; such examinations show the convenience of constructing a single theory from the results of group experiments and ring experiments which are known to follow simple corollaries. The text also presents algebraic structures that are not of binary nature. From this parallelism arise other concepts, such as that of the lattices, complete lattices, and modular lattices. The book then proves the Schmidt-Ore theorem, and also describes linear algebra, as well as the Birkhoff-Witt theorem on Lie algebras. The text also addresses ordered groups, the Archimedean groups and rings, and Albert's theorem on normed algebras. This book can prove useful for algebra students and for professors of algebra and advanced mathematicians.

Book Description
The two-volume set originates from the Advanced Course on Petri Nets held in Dagstuhl, Germany in September 1996; beyond the lectures given there, additional chapters have been commissioned to give a well-balanced presentation of the state of the art in the area. Together with its companion volume "Lectures on Petri Nets I: Basic Models" this book is the actual reference for the area and addresses professionals, students, lecturers, and researchers who are - interested in systems design and would like to learn to use Petri nets familiar with subareas of the theory or its applications and wish to view the whole area - interested in learning about recent results presented within a unified framework - planning to apply Petri nets in practical situations - interested in the relationship of Petri nets to other models of concurrent systems.

Book Description
This update of the 1987 title of the same name is an examination of what is currently known about the probabilistic method, written by one of its principal developers. Based on the notes from Spencer's 1986 series of ten lectures, this new edition contains an additional lecture: The Janson Inequalities. These inequalities allow accurate approximation of extremely small probabilities. A new algorithmic approach to the Lovasz Local Lemma, attributed to Jozsef Beck, has been added to Lecture 8, as well.

Book Description
The volume addresses issues concerning prosody generation in speech synthesis, including prosody modeling, how we can convey para- and non-linguistic information in speech synthesis, and prosody control in speech synthesis (including prosody conversions). A high level of quality has already been achieved in speech synthesis by using selection-based methods with segments of human speech. Although the method enables synthetic speech with various voice qualities and speaking styles, it requires large speech corpora with targeted quality and style. Accordingly, speech conversion techniques are now of growing interest among researchers. HMM/GMM-based methods are widely used, but entail several major problems when viewed from the prosody perspective; prosodic features cover a wider time span than segmental features and their frame-by-frame processing is not always appropriate. The book offers a good overview of state-of-the-art studies on prosody in speech synthesis.
