Overview: .This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 29th International Conference on Inductive Logic Programming, ILP 2019, held in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, in September 2019...The 11 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) is a subfield of machine learning, which originally relied on logic programming as a uniform representation language for expressing examples, background knowledge and hypotheses. Due to its strong representation formalism, based on first-order logic, ILP provides an excellent means

Overview: .Gli umani sono creature della narrazione: infinitamente narrano e si narrano, intrecciano dialoghi, accendono storie per illuminare le buie caverne del cuore e del mondo, recuperano e trasmutano ricordi. Viviamo tra una realtà soda e scabra, inconoscibile, una fornace enorme di perturbazioni e richiami e colori, e un’interiorità elusiva, delicata ed effimera: e tra le due, tra il mondo e noi, tessiamo col pensiero e con le parole un fragile ponte, un ponte che si chiama senso. Dondola questo ponte al soffio ineguale di un vento cosmico, lasciando cadere fosforici frammenti: clessidr

Overview: Die Arbeit zielt auf ein neues, sozialwissenschaftlich begründetes Verständnis von Wissenschaft und Technik. Gesellschaftliche Bedingungen, die zu neuen Wissenschaften und technischen Innovationsschüben führen - hohe Mobilität, Individualisierung und Entfremdung von tradierten Verhaltensweisen - werden an drei Epochen dargestellt: Die Begründung "beweisender Wissenschaften” in der Antike, der Universitäten im Mittelalter und die Entstehung neuzeitlicher Wissenschaften. Alle diese Phasen sind von massiven technischen Innovationsschüben begleitet. Dahinter steht die Suche nach neuen Ko

Overview: When considering future trends in educational and vocational orientation we must constantly bear in mind, in as concrete a way as possible, that schools form an integral part of society as a whole. To point out that education and society are inseparable concepts has of course become almost a ritual statement in the majority of studies of future developments in education. All too often however "society" becomes an allegorical figure to which characteristics can be attributed varying with the tradition of thought adhered to by each writer. This figure is given a part to play in the plo

Overview: Practical, every day resource of the radiologic and urodynamic investigations commonly used to evaluate the lower urinary tract.Includes supplementary material: Lower urinary tract symptoms may be the result of a structural or functional abn- mality. To consider either in isolation would be an incomplete assessment, but c- bined anatomical and functional imaging provides a more powerful and complete tool for investigation of lower urinary tract malfunction. Yet many of the currently available radiological texts concerning lower urinary tract imaging fail to discuss these two aspects

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Autonomous agents and multi-agent systems are computational systems in which several (semi-)autonomous agents interact with each other or work together to perform some set of tasks or satisfy some set of goals. These systems may involve computational agents that are homogeneous or heterogeneous, they may involve activities on the part of agents having common or distinct goals, and they may involve participation on the part of humans and intelligent agents. This volume contains selected papers from PRIMA 2002, the 5th Paci?c Rim International Workshop

Overview: This book continues the story of a new field called molecular medi­ cine. The first edition appeared 10 years ago in a previous millennium. At that time cloning a gene was cutting edge research; now gene cloning is a high school science fair project. The complete sequencing of the human genome was finished last year; cloning a human is a likely (and very controversial) event for 2002. The tools of molecular medicine have become very powerful and automated; DNA on a chip and microarrays allow us to probe large parts of the genome and its function. The speed of sequencing DNA has incre

Overview: Inotropic stimulation of the myocardium, as well as vasodilation and diuresis as essential principles in the treatment of congestive heart failure have recently met with considerable criticism and reevaluation. It is generally agreed that unloading of the heart, either through vasodilation and/or diuresis, improves the working conditions of the dilated, failing heart. It reduces myocar­ dial oxygen consumption through reduction of chamber radius and, thereby, wall tension as the major determinants of myocardial oxygen consumption. Inotropic stimulation, quite in contrast, does not co

Overview: Helps to understand how inflation is created and measured in the UK.Explains why inflation is important and how the current measurement system has developed.Charts the history of inflation back to 190.This book is an introduction to the history of – and current measurement practice of – inflation for the United Kingdom. The authors describe the historical development of inflation measures in a global context, and do so without using formal mathematical language and related jargon that relates only to a few specialist scholars. Although inflation is a widely used and quoted statistic,
