To harness the high-throughput potential of DNA microarray technology, it is crucial that the analysis stages of the process are decoupled from the requirements of operator assistance. Microarray Image Analysis: An Algorithmic Approach presents an automatic system for microarray image processing to make this decoupling a reality. The proposed syste

The Economic Theory of Developing Countries' Rise examines the great economic development achievements of China within such a short period of time, which have surprised the world and have also raised other developing countries' hopes for catching up with developed countries. Featuring traditional political economics and Chinese characteristics of socialism, this book is about the economics of developing countries' rise, based on the case of China and focuses on catching-up economi...

Multiphase Flows in Deformable Geomaterials proposes that multiscale coupling of multiphase flow and multicomponents within a deformable porous medium is complex and interdisciplinary and lacks a unified theory. To address this gap, the book proposes chemo-physical Mixture-Coupling Theory and non-equilibrium thermodynamic processes to derive governing equations for multiphase transport and mechanical behavior. This addresses challenges in the existing multiscale coupling theory an...
