Book Description
They say that I'm not human. I am simply the property of AWPA, the Advanced Weaponised Projects Agency. I wonder if I can be both... Alpha-3 has a single purpose: fulfil her genetic potential and be selected to join the ranks of GenoCorp. But the Alpha-models never seem to go far, and as Alphie suffers setback after setback, she begins to question the fate of the prototypes that don't meet the standard.

Transdisciplinary Engineering: A Paradigm Shift
Author: C.-H. Chen
Publisher: IOS Press
ISBN: 1614997799
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 1092
Book Description
Concurrent Engineering is based on the concept that different phases of a product life cycle should be conducted concurrently and initiated as early as possible within the Product Creation Process (PCP). Its main goal is to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the PCP and reduce errors in the later stages, and to incorporate considerations for the full lifecycle, through-life operations, and environmental issues of the product. It has become the substantive basic methodology in many industries, and the initial basic concepts have matured and become the foundation of many new ideas, methodologies, initiatives, approaches and tools. This book presents the proceedings of the 24th ISPE Inc. International Conference on Transdisciplinary (formerly: Concurrent) Engineering (TE 2017), held in Singapore, in July 2017. The 120 peer-reviewed papers in the book are divided into 16 sections: air transport and traffic operations and management; risk-aware supply chain intelligence; product innovation and marketing management; human factors in design; human engineering; design methods and tools; decision supporting tools and methods; concurrent engineering; knowledge-based engineering; collaborative engineering; engineering for sustainability; service design; digital manufacturing; design automation; artificial intelligence and data analytics; smart systems and the Internet of Things. The book provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in transdisciplinary concurrent engineering research and applications, and will be of interest to researchers, design practitioners and educators working in the field.

Pages : 67
Book Description
ONLY THE WORTHY PASS THE HARVEST Ever since WWIII devastated the surface of the Earth, emotions have been strictly forbidden. Childhood friends, Eve and Hana, have grown up in an underground compound, their emotional control monitored at all times. But the harvest is approaching . . . In two days, the low-ranked students will be culled and the worthy assigned to their permanent positions in society. Eve is a high-ranked student, but harbours secret concerns about her brother leaving—feelings that she must conceal from her monitor if she wishes to succeed. Hana has always struggled to control her emotions, and she fears that this harvest will be her last. Both know there's no place for friendship when they're competing for their lives. The harvest is coming, and only the worthy will remain.

Mercury Handbook
Author: L F Kozin
Publisher: Royal Society of Chemistry
ISBN: 1849734097
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
Mercury has many applications in scientific research and industry from amalgams for dental restoration to light bulbs. Developed from a combination of material originally published in Russian and the authors' research knowledge, this book provides a comprehensive treatise on the chemistry and metallurgy of amalgams. Coverage includes analysis, physico-chemical properties, electrochemistry, purification, inorganic and organic mercury chemistry, industrial application and synthesis and environmental aspects of mercury. This book provides a thorough understanding of amalgam metallurgy which is essential for academics, industrialists and postgraduates working in relevant fields. Guaranteed to bring a wealth of information, this book will be a welcome addition to the literature.

Advancements in Knowledge Distillation: Towards New Horizons of Intelligent Systems
Author: Witold Pedrycz
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031320956
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
The book provides a timely coverage of the paradigm of knowledge distillation—an efficient way of model compression. Knowledge distillation is positioned in a general setting of transfer learning, which effectively learns a lightweight student model from a large teacher model. The book covers a variety of training schemes, teacher–student architectures, and distillation algorithms. The book covers a wealth of topics including recent developments in vision and language learning, relational architectures, multi-task learning, and representative applications to image processing, computer vision, edge intelligence, and autonomous systems. The book is of relevance to a broad audience including researchers and practitioners active in the area of machine learning and pursuing fundamental and applied research in the area of advanced learning paradigms.
