Exploring the intersection of membrane computing and artificial neural networks, this book delves into spiking neural P systems, a third-generation neural network model inspired by living cells. It is structured into two main sections: one focusing on theoretical models and the other on practical applications, providing a comprehensive overview of the current research landscape in this interdisciplinary field.
Focusing on sustainable development, this book analyzes practices across 70 major cities, presenting a comprehensive framework for understanding China's "New Normal" economy. It explores ten critical aspects such as growth shifts, structural upgrades, and innovation drives, offering in-depth insights and systematic studies. The work provides targeted policy suggestions aimed at fostering a stable and healthy macroeconomic environment, addressing challenges like moderate inflation and risk exposure while promoting regional synergy and sustainable growth.
The two-volume set LNCS 7367 and 7368 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium on Neural Networks, ISNN 2012, held in Shenyang, China, in July 2012. The 147 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The contributions are structured in topical sections on mathematical modeling; neurodynamics; cognitive neuroscience; learning algorithms; optimization; pattern recognition; vision; image processing; information processing; neurocontrol; and novel applications.
Focusing on traditional Chinese exercise techniques, this book aims to introduce lesser-known practices beyond qi gong to Western audiences. Authored by Jun Wang, a doctor of Chinese medicine, it draws from classic Chinese texts to provide insights into body-mind healing exercises. The goal is to bridge the gap in understanding and accessibility of these valuable practices, promoting holistic wellness through movement and energy cultivation.
