Book Description
Fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs) have gained popularity in the scientific community due to their capabilities in modeling and decision making for complex problems.This book presents a novel algorithm called glassoFCM to enable automatic learning of FCM models from data. Specifically, glassoFCM is a combination of two methods, glasso (a technique originated from machine learning) for data modeling and FCM simulation for decision making. The book outlines that glassoFCM elaborates simple, accurate, and more stable models that are easy to interpret and offer meaningful decisions. The research results presented are based on an investigation related to a real-world business intelligence problem to evaluate characteristics that influence employee work readiness.Finally, this book provides readers with a step-by-step guide of the 'fcm' package to execute and visualize their policies and decisions through the FCM simulation process.

Sound - Perception - Performance
Author: Rolf Bader
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3319001078
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Musical Performance covers many aspects like Musical Acoustics, Music Psychology, or motor and prosodic actions. It deals with basic concepts of the origin or music and its evolution, ranges over neurocognitive foundations, and covers computational, technological, or simulation solutions. This volume gives an overview about current research in the foundation of musical performance studies on all these levels. Recent concepts of synchronized systems, evolutionary concepts, basic understanding of performance as Gestalt patterns, theories of chill as performance goals or historical aspects are covered. The neurocognitive basis of motor action in terms of music, musical syntax, as well as therapeutic aspects are discussed. State-of-the-art applications in performance realizations, like virtual room acoustics, virtual musicians, new concepts of real-time physical modeling using complex performance data as input or sensor and gesture studies with soft- and hardware solutions are presented. So although the field is still much larger, this volume presents current trends in terms of understanding, implementing, and perceiving performance.

Real-time Simulation for Sustainable Production
Author: Juhani Ukko
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000392201
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive overview of potential opportunities and the business value position related to implementing physics-based real-time simulation to production. The objective of real-time simulation is to provide value for all three dimensions of sustainability: economic, social, and environmental. By reviewing actual industrial cases and presenting relevant academic research, the book examines the topic from four interrelated viewpoints: the industrial need for sustainable production, the development of game-like virtual environments, capturing customer value and enhancing the user experience, and finally, establishing business value. It offers a framework that will enable a rethink and shift in mindset to appreciate how real-time simulation can change the way products are manufactured and services are produced. This book will appeal to researchers and scholars in areas as diverse as strategic management, manufacturing and operations management, marketing, industrial economics, and product lifecycle management.

Handbook of Research on Analyzing IT Opportunities for Inclusive Digital Learning
Author: Ordóñez de Pablos, Patricia
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN: 179987186X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
The outbreak of the pandemic around the world came with national measures to deal with the health emergency that caused and will continue to cause important disruption in education for students, teachers, and policymakers. Digital technologies can provide innovative solutions that can prevent the negative effects of lockdowns of countries and regions on education. It is important to analyze digital solutions and experiences for distance learning and to better understand the available resources and best practices to deal effectively with the challenges of digital learning for both learners and academic staff. It is important that countries promote digital excellence and explore the opportunities that information technologies can provide to education institutions, especially in the post-pandemic scenario, and the major transformations it will bring to citizens, societies, and economies. The Handbook of Research on Analyzing IT Opportunities for Inclusive Digital Learning explores the new demands of labor markets in the digital economy, how educational institutions can respond to these new opportunities and threats, the development of new teaching and learning methods, and finally, the development of digital skills and competences. It also discusses the challenges and opportunities caused by the pandemic in the area of education and how information technologies can transform education and develop a new workforce with the required digital skills and competences and knowledge to fit the post-pandemic labor market. This book highlights topics including knowledge management systems, learning technologies, personalized learning, and more within the context of diverse student populations. It is a valuable reference tool for academics, researchers, lecturers, decision makers, policymakers, and practitioners interested in new theories, research findings, and case studies for understanding inclusive digital learning and the opportunities for digital technologies in education.
