This book focuses on the modelling and optimization aspects of the feature selection problem through computational intelligence methods in complex, high-dimensional supervised machine learning. To aid readers in conducting research in this field, it covers fundamental concepts and state-of-the-art algorithms. This book also provides a detailed insight into applying these algorithms into real-world applications. The authors begin by introducing the definition high-dimensional machine learni...

In the 1980s, China faced the monumental task of creating, from scratch, internationally competitive companies. This challenge was especially daunting in the information and communications technology (ICT) sector. The Inside Story of China's High-Tech Industry describes the emergence and growth of this industry in China through a historically situated analysis of China's leading science park, Beijing's Zhongguancun, also known as China's Silicon Valley. Zhou challenges the prevailing view ...

This book investigates the historical evolution, regional differences, and quantitative measurement on street interface, which forms the street space and plays a very important role in urban form. Empirical research reveals the street interface in Chinese cities are much more complicated than European and American cities. This book explores the reason and reveals the relationship between street interface and urban form in morphology. By constructing quantitative measurement method on stree...

In China, the puhui (普惠) early care and education (ECE) program, a national public policy, was officially launched in 2010 to improve the affordability, accessibility, and quality of ECE. Based on a five-year research project, this book explores the development and practice of this ambitious reform campaign with national empirical evidence.The authors evaluate the puhui ECE system (e.g., puhui early education policy, puhui kindergarten services, puhui child care services, and total...

The book is about a very active research field in software engineering. In modern society, the fact of the world's high reliance on software requires the system's robustness, i.e., continual availability and satisfactory service quality. This requirement gives rise to the popularity of the research on the self-adaptive software in open environment. There are some academic conferences dedicated to this field. But there is a lack of monographs about the topic. We believe such need is unmet i...

This book, consisting of 8 chapters, describes the state-of-the-art technological progress and applications of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in precision agriculture. It focuses on the UAV application in agriculture, such as crop disease detection, mid-season yield estimation, crop nutrient status, and high-throughput phenotyping. Different from individual papers focusing on a specific application, this book provides a holistic view for readers with a wide range of subjects. In addition ...

Polyimides for Biomedicine fills a crucial information gap by systemically reviewing the development and use of polyimides across a selection of biomedical applications. As highly regarded engineering materials, PIs have found utility across aviation, aerospace, microelectronics, and more due to their exceptional attributes and synthesis capabilities. This book delves into the pivotal role PIs play in biomedicine, encompassing substrates for cell culture, biosensor membranes, and medical t...
