民國二十六年七月七日，盧溝橋開了第一槍還擊，中日戰爭終於爆發了，接著天津淪陷，王凱聲於此時放棄了去大後方讀書的機會，毅然投筆從戎，自此改變了他一生的命運。王凱聲自十八歲加入中國國民黨，二十一歲參加抗日戰爭「吐羊口之役」、「向陽山之役」、「勝利崖之役」；二十二歲參加「大掃蕩戰役」，二十三歲夜襲「劉公島大捷」，擄獲大批武器彈藥，在我國抗日戰史上寫下光輝的一頁；二十四歲攜母參加「黃菴山之役」、「于家齊之役」，在戰爭中左手腕中彈受傷，偽軍梁俊逸救助王凱聲送醫治療；二十五歲改名在天津經商支援敵後工作。民國三十四年八月十四日抗戰勝利，光復台灣。民國三十八年六月二日，國共內戰潰敗，王凱聲自青島乘「天運輪」攜全家及姥姥來台，選擇與中華民國共存亡。當年十月二十四日解放軍進攻金門，但因不擅海戰，後援不繼，在為時三天的金門古寧頭戰役中被國軍殲滅。在台北的蔣中正說：「這一仗打勝，台灣安全了」。王凱聲一生的黃金歲月，參與了中華民族抵抗日本軍閥侵略的聖戰，他的故事就是全民抗日戰爭史的一部分──謹以此書紀念抗日戰爭勝利七十周年。

Machine learning has become a cornerstone of modern data-driven science and technology. For mathematics students and researchers, understanding the mathematical foundations behind machine learning is essential, even if they never work directly with real-world datasets.This book provides a rigorous yet accessible introduction to the core mathematical ideas that underpin machine learning. Topics such as linear and nonlinear regression, regularization techniques, and the fundamentals ...

This short textbook covers roughly 13 weeks of lectures on advanced statistical mechanics at the graduate level. It starts with an elementary introduction to the theory of ensembles from classical mechanics, and then goes on to quantum statistical mechanics with density matrix. These topics are covered concisely and briefly. The advanced topics cover the mean-field theory for phase transitions, the Ising models and their exact solutions, and critical phenomena and their scaling theory. The...

Taiwan’s modern legal system--quite different from those of both traditional China and the People’s Republic--has evolved since the advent of Japanese rule in 1895. Japan has gradually adopted Western law during the 19th-century and when it occupied Taiwan--a frontier society composed of Han Chinese settlers--its codes were instituted for the purpose of rapidly assimilating the Taiwanese people into Japanese society.Tay-sheng Wang’s comprehensive study lays a solid foundation for f...

This book explores the hydrogen integration in energy systems from a whole system optimisation perspective. The book introduces new modelling, optimisation, and reliability evaluation approaches that support the net zero transition.Global warming has been witnessed in the past few decades—as caused by the emission of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, it not only affects the habitat of animals but also threatens the lives of mankind in modern societies. Around the world, res...

Time is an important factor in physical and natural sciences. It characterizes the progress of chemical and biochemical processes. Mass spectrometry provides the means to study molecular structures by detecting gas-phase ions with the unique mass-to-charge ratios. Time-resolved mass spectrometry (TRMS) allows one to differentiate between chemical states that can be observed sequentially at different time points. Real-time mass spectrometric monitoring enables recording data continuously wi...

This book describes the basic concepts and principles of classical mechanics in the intermediate level. Given the perspective that different mechanical problems require an appropriate approach drawn from various methods or principles, a textbook discussing multiple methods or principles in mechanics is highly desirable. Additionally, a good textbook should include historical context on the motivation and the development of the methods or principles, allowing students to gain insights that ...

Connected vehicles and intelligent vehicles have been identified as key technologies for increasing road safety and transport efficiency. This book presents and discusss the recent advances in theory and practice in connected vehicle systems. It covers emerging research that aims at dealing with the challenges in designing the essential functional components of connected vehicles. Major topics include intra- and inter-vehicle communications, mobility model of fleet and ramp merging, trace ...

This book focuses on the risk modeling, analysis and control of multi-energy systems considering cross-sectorial failure propagation. Both models and methods have been addressed with engineering practice. This is accomplished by doing a thorough investigation into the modeling of system physics and reliabilities in both long- and short-term phases. Different models and methods to evaluate the risk of multi-energy systems considering various disturbances, e.g., component failures, load unce...

This work covers sequence-based protein homology detection, a fundamental and challenging bioinformatics problem with a variety of real-world applications. The text first surveys a few popular homology detection methods, such as Position-Specific Scoring Matrix (PSSM) and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based methods, and then describes a novel Markov Random Fields (MRF) based method developed by the authors. MRF-based methods are much more sensitive than HMM- and PSSM-based methods for remote h...

This is a book with the best poems selected from the Tang Dynasty in Chinese. As we know it well, Wang Wei is one of the best poets in the Tang Dynasty. This book has selected some of the best poetic works of Wang Wei. After prudentially reviewing the available English translation on Internet, I am confident my English translation is one the best.

社会发展到今天，许多人已经感觉到，很多世上流传的所谓道理自相矛盾，让人百思不得其解。本书意在，以最直白的语言，最质朴的道理，拒绝煽情炒作，拂去修饰遮掩，还世界一个本来的清净面目，助力众人去伪存真达成幸福。本书主要表达了如下的新颖理念：谦虚不是仪表或礼貌，而是逢人遇事时注重探寻道理。才华并不来自读了多少书，而来自你想明白了多少道理。智慧是对聪明的否定。人生就是为了实现愿望而进行的奋斗。人生是长跑，不是短跑，中断努力，越来越难。大道理若不通，在其辖下的小道理就必然是胡扯。深明大义，方知取舍。规矩可成方圆，容忍赢得感恩，宽严相济成就恩威。人的内心是阳光的，他的世界就是温暖的；人的内心是阴暗的，他的世界就是寒冷的。中老年人的修养是庇护家庭幸福的祖德。家庭幸福是幸福的顶峰，家人好，你才好。哄劝是教子良方。蹉跎的童年是人生...
