Free Download Constraint-Based Mining and Inductive Databases: European Workshop on Inductive Databases and Constraint Based Mining, Hinterzarten, Germany, March 11-13, 2004, Revised Selected Papers By Roberto J. Bayardo (auth.), Jean-François Boulicaut, Luc De Raedt, Heikki Mannila (eds.)
2006 | 404 Pages | ISBN: 3540313311 | PDF | 5 MB
The 18 articles in this state-of-the-art survey present the latest results in inductive querying and constraint-based data mining and also identify future directions of this newly emerging field lying at the intersection of data mining and database research. The papers address topical sections on foundations of inductive database frameworks, optimizing inductive queries on local patterns, optimizing inductive queries on global patterns, and applications of inductive querying techniques.

Introduction to Constraint Databases


Free Download Introduction to Constraint Databases by Peter Z. Revesz
English | PDF | 2002 | 406 Pages | ISBN : 0387987290 | 3.5 MB
Differing from other books on the subject, this one uses the framework of constraint databases to provide a natural and powerful generalization of relational databases. An important theme running through the text is showing how relational databases can smoothly develop into constraint databases, without sacrificing any of the benefits of relational databases whilst gaining new advantages. Peter Revesz begins by discussing data models and how queries may be addressed to them. From here, he develops the theory of relational and constraint databases, including Datalog and the relational calculus, concluding with three sample constraint database systems – DISCO, DINGO, and RATHER. Advanced undergraduates and graduates in computer science will find this a clear introduction to the subject, while professionals and researchers will appreciate this novel perspective on their subject.

English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031512758 | 320 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 2.3 MB
Can we regulate something that doesn’t exist yet? Can Europe create its own Silicon Valley? Who gets to create technological value in today’s world? Whatever happened to the once-flourishing idea of rags to riches? Will new and exciting innovations only ever come from big tech companies? Can the EU establish its own flexible framework for boosting innovation, e.g. by facilitating the transformative use of technologies and data?This book seeks to answer these questions by exploring the differences in copyright culture in Europe and the United States, with its flexible fair use framework. The findings are anything but obvious, and decades of case law on both sides of the Atlantic tell a story of judges going to great lengths to deal with new challenges while navigating the imperfections of statutory law – both where it is too broadly formulated and where it is too prescriptive.How can the population’s creative potential best be fostered? What do software innovations have in common with the evolution of living organisms? What are the vulnerabilities of distributed creativity? Answers are sought in the processes that came into being during the early years of the digital revolution and were then forced to take a back seat as control of the means of production was increasingly placed in the hands of tech companies. The findings and insights presented here are highly relevant for today’s digital policymaking. Market concentration processes in innovation haven’t ceased; they are ongoing. And in an age where data-driven services are creating and reinforcing global oligopolies, the question posed by the U.S. Supreme Court in Google v. Oracle is now more relevant than ever: who should hold the keys to digital innovation?

CIMT – Constraint Induced Movement Therapy


Free Download CIMT – Constraint Induced Movement Therapy: Evidenzbasierte Therapie bei leichter und mittlerer Armparese
Deutsch | 2023 | ISBN: 366267873X | 152 Seiten | PDF (True) | 6 MB
Dieses Praxisbuch beschreibt die Umsetzung der Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) für die Rehabilitation der oberen Extremität von Patient*innen nach Schlaganfall. Erfahren Sie, wie das Wegbinden des weniger betroffenen Armes die Aktivität des stärker betroffenen Armes fördern kann. Wie wird die Therapieform in der Pädiatrie angewandt? Führt eine Intensivtherapie zur Überbelastung und damit zu Tonuserhöhung oder Spastik des stärker betroffenen Armes? In diesem Buch finden Sie die Antworten auf alle Fragen zu CIMT für die Physiotherapie und Ergotherapie. Aus dem Inhalt: Physiologie und Pathophysiologie, Grundlagen der Neuroplastizität, die drei Säulen der CIMT: Trainingsmethoden, Task Practice, Shaping, Assessments und praktische Beispiele im ambulanten und klinischen Bereich, Anwendung von CIMT bei verschiedenen neurologischen Krankheitsbildern, bei Erwachsenen und Kindern.

The Complexity of Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems


Free Download The Complexity of Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems by tanislav Živný
English | PDF | 2012 | 176 Pages | ISBN : 3642339735 | 1.9 MB
The topic of this book is the following optimisation problem: given a set of discrete variables and a set of functions, each depending on a subset of the variables, minimise the sum of the functions over all variables. This fundamental research problem has been studied within several different contexts of discrete mathematics, computer science and artificial intelligence under different names: Min-Sum problems, MAP inference in Markov random fields (MRFs) and conditional random fields (CRFs), Gibbs energy minimisation, valued constraint satisfaction problems (VCSPs), and, for two-state variables, pseudo-Boolean optimisation.
