In this book, David Temperley addresses a fundamental question about music cognition: how do we extract basic kinds of musical information, such as meter, phrase structure, counterpoint, pitch spelling, harmony, and key from music as we hear it? Taking a computational approach, Temperley develops models for generating these aspects of musical structure. The models he proposes are based on preference rules, which are criteria for evaluating a possible structural analysis of a piece of music. A preference rule system evaluates many possible interpretations and chooses the one that best satisfies the rules.After an introductory chapter, Temperley presents preference rule systems for generating six basic kinds of musical structure: meter, phrase structure, contrapuntal structure, harmony, and key, as well as pitch spelling (the labeling of pitch events with spellings such as A flat or G sharp). He suggests that preference rule systems not only show how musical structures are inferred, but also shed light on other aspects of music. He substantiates this claim with discussions of musical ambiguity, retrospective revision, expectation, and music outside the Western canon (rock and traditional African music). He proposes a framework for the description of musical styles based on preference rule systems and explores the relevance of preference rule systems to higher-level aspects of music, such as musical schemata, narrative and drama, and musical tension.

A unified treatment of the generation and analysis of brain-generated electromagnetic fields.In Brain Signals, Risto Ilmoniemi and Jukka Sarvas present the basic physical and mathematical principles of magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG), describing what kind of information is available in the neuroelectromagnetic field and how the measured MEG and EEG signals can be analyzed. Unlike most previous works on these topics, which have been collections of writings by different authors using different conventions, this book presents the material in a unified manner, providing the reader with a thorough understanding of basic principles and a firm basis for analyzing data generated by MEG and EEG.The book first provides a brief introduction to brain states and the early history of EEG and MEG, describes the generation of electromagnetic fields by neuronal activity, and discusses the electromagnetic forward problem. The authors then turn to EEG and MEG analysis, offering a review of linear and matrix algebra and basic statistics needed for analysis of the data, and presenting several analysis methods: dipole fitting; the minimum norm estimate (MNE); beamforming; the multiple signal classification algorithm (MUSIC), including RAP-MUSIC with the RAP dilemma and TRAP-MUSIC, which removes the RAP dilemma; independent component analysis (ICA); and blind source separation (BSS) with joint diagonalization.

The Connection Machine describes a fundamentally different kind of computer. It offers a preview of a parallel processing computer that Daniel Hillis and others are now developing to perform tasks that no conventional, sequential machine can solve in a reasonable time. W. Daniel Hillis is a founder of Thinking Machines Corporation where he is engaged in building connection machines as a significant step toward real thinking machines. The Connection Machine is included in the Artificial Intelligence series, edited by Patrick Winston, Michael Brady, and Daniel Bobrow.

An introduction to dependent types, demonstrating the most beautiful aspects, one step at a time.A program's type describes its behavior. Dependent types are a first-class part of a language, and are much more powerful than other kinds of types; using just one language for types and programs allows program descriptions to be as powerful as the programs they describe. The Little Typer explains dependent types, beginning with a very small language that looks very much like Scheme and extending it to cover both programming with dependent types and using dependent types for mathematical reasoning. Readers should be familiar with the basics of a Lisp-like programming language, as presented in the first four chapters of The Little Schemer. The first five chapters of The Little Typer provide the needed tools to understand dependent types; the remaining chapters use these tools to build a bridge between mathematics and programming. Readers will learn that tools they know from programming―pairs, lists, functions, and recursion―can also capture patterns of reasoning. The Little Typer does not attempt to teach either practical programming skills or a fully rigorous approach to types. Instead, it demonstrates the most beautiful aspects as simply as possible, one step at a time.

A history and theory of the powers, the failures, and even the pleasures of paperwork.Since the middle of the eighteenth century, political thinkers of all kinds―radical and reactionary, professional and amateur―have been complaining about “bureaucracy.” But what, exactly, are they complaining about?In The Demon of Writing, Ben Kafka offers a critical history and theory of one of the most ubiquitous, least understood forms of media: paperwork. States rely on records to tax and spend, protect and serve, discipline and punish. But time and again, this paperwork proves to be unreliable. Examining episodes that range from the story of a clerk who lost his job and then his mind in the French Revolution to an account of Roland Barthes's brief stint as a university administrator, Kafka reveals the powers, the failures, and even the pleasures of paperwork. Many of its complexities, he argues, have been obscured by the comic-paranoid style that characterizes much of our criticism of bureaucracy. Kafka proposes a new theory of what Karl Marx called the “bureaucratic medium.” Moving from Marx to Freud, he argues that this theory of paperwork must include both a theory of praxis and of parapraxis.

We live in a dynamic economic and commerical world, surrounded by objects of remarkable complexity and power. In many industries, changes in products and technologies have brought with them new kinds of firms and forms of organization. We are discovering news ways of structuring work, of bringing buyers and sellers together, and of creating and using market information. Although our fast-moving economy often seems to be outside of our influence or control, human beings create the things that create the market forces. Devices, software programs, production processes, contracts, firms, and markets are all the fruit of purposeful action: they are designed. Using the computer industry as an example, Carliss Y. Baldwin and Kim B. Clark develop a powerful theory of design and industrial evolution. They argue that the industry has experienced previously unimaginable levels of innovation and growth because it embraced the concept of modularity, building complex products from smaller subsystems that can be designed independently yet function together as a whole. Modularity freed designers to experiment with different approaches, as long as they obeyed the established design rules. Drawing upon the literatures of industrial organization, real options, and computer architecture, the authors provide insight into the forces of change that drive today's economy.

A comprehensive introduction to type systems and programming languages.A type system is a syntactic method for automatically checking the absence of certain erroneous behaviors by classifying program phrases according to the kinds of values they compute. The study of type systems―and of programming languages from a type-theoretic perspective―has important applications in software engineering, language design, high-performance compilers, and security.This text provides a comprehensive introduction both to type systems in computer science and to the basic theory of programming languages. The approach is pragmatic and operational; each new concept is motivated by programming examples and the more theoretical sections are driven by the needs of implementations. Each chapter is accompanied by numerous exercises and solutions, as well as a running implementation, available via the Web. Dependencies between chapters are explicitly identified, allowing readers to choose a variety of paths through the material.The core topics include the untyped lambda-calculus, simple type systems, type reconstruction, universal and existential polymorphism, subtyping, bounded quantification, recursive types, kinds, and type operators. Extended case studies develop a variety of approaches to modeling the features of object-oriented languages.

The cognitive neuroscience of human vision draws on two kinds of evidence: functional imaging of normal subjects and the study of neurological patients with visual disorders. Martha Farah's landmark 1990 book Visual Agnosia presented the first comprehensive analysis of disorders of visual recognition within the framework of cognitive neuroscience, and remains the authoritative work on the subject. This long-awaited second edition provides a reorganized and updated review of the visual agnosias, incorporating the latest research on patients with insights from the functional neuroimaging literature. Visual agnosia refers to a multitude of different disorders and syndromes, fascinating in their own right and valuable for what they can tell us about normal human vision. Some patients cannot recognize faces but can still recognize other objects, while others retain only face recognition. Some see only one object at a time; others can see multiple objects but recognize only one at a time. Some do not consciously perceive the orientation of an object but nevertheless reach for it with perfected oriented grasp; others do not consciously recognize a face as familiar but nevertheless respond to it autonomically. Each disorder is illustrated with a clinical vignette, followed by a thorough review of the case report literature and a discussion of the theoretical implications of the disorder for cognitive neuroscience. The second edition extends the range of disorders covered to include disorders of topographic recognition, and both general and selective disorders of semantic memory, as well as expanded coverage of face recognition impairments. Also included are a discussion of the complementary roles of imaging and patient-based research in cognitive neuroscience, and a final integrative chapter presenting the "big picture" of object recognition as illuminated by agnosia research.

Neu Neuware auf Lager, Sofortversand - Mit achtzehn verlässt Shu Han Lee ihr Elternhaus und ihre Heimat Singapur, um in London zu studieren. Von Heimweh getrieben, versucht sie sich zum ersten Mal selbst an der Zubereitung jener Gerichte, mit denen sie aufgewachsen ist und die sie so sehr vermisst. Sie sucht nach Rezepten, probiert manche bis zu acht Mal aus, bis sie ihr endlich gelingen, und bittet ihre Mutter in langen Skype-Konferenzen um Rat. In 'Chicken & Rice' teilt Shu Han Lee ihre Erfahrungen und ihr angereichertes Wissen über die wichtigsten Basiszutaten und Zubereitungsweisen. Sie versammelt Rezepte aus ganz Südost- asien, vor allem aus Singapur und Malaysia, aber auch aus vielen anderen Regionen, die sie bereist hat. So werden unter anderem die kräftigen, feurigen Aromen Thailands mit leichtem vietnamesischem Essen und üppigen, stark gewürzten Currys aus Indonesien verbunden. Dabei legt Shu großen Wert auf die Verwendung frischer Zutaten und auf die Abwandlung traditioneller Gerichte je nach Jahreszeit und vor Ort verfügbaren Kräutern und Gemüsesorten. Und weil Shu in London nicht nur gelernt hat zu kochen, sondern auch zu gestalten, stammen die Illustra- tionen und das Design des Buches ebenfalls aus ihrer Hand. - 'Eine Wohlfühlmischung aus einfachen Rezepten und berührenden Erinnerungen' DIANA HENRY, TELEGRAPH - Authentische südostasiatische Küche aus Zutaten, die in unseren Breiten leicht erhältlich sind

Essad-Bey, kränkliches Kind eines Ölbarons aus Baku, erhält von seinem Vater die Erlaubnis, den Sommer zusammen mit seinem "Milchbruder" Ali-Bey zur Erholung in dessen Heimatdorf im wilden Kaukasus zu verbringen. So machen sie sich in der Obhut eines weisen Dieners auf den Weg in jene archaische Welt, in der Ritterlichkeit mehr zählte als Wirtschaftskraft und Dichter höher angesehen waren als Fürsten - in das Land, das alles Verschollene und Vergessene wie eine Raritätensammlung der Weltgeschichte getreu konserviert hatte.Dies ist Essad-Beys zweites Buch, 1931 erstmals erschienen. In ihm entfaltet der Autor mithilfe seiner orientalischen Imaginationskraft ein groß angelegtes Panorama des Kaukasus, seiner Völker, Sitten und Bräuche. So entstand ein atmosphärisch dichtes und frisches, wenn auch nicht unbedingt wissenschaftlich akkurates Werk. Mit manch märchenhaftem Einschub gelingt es Essad Bey, Geist und Herz jener archaischen Welt lebendig werden zu lassen, die er als Kind erlebt und lieben gelernt hat.

Neuware -Vom Sitz der Götter auf dem Berg Olymp aus erkennt Zeus, dass er einen Vertreter seiner Macht zu den Menschen schicken muss, um den Frieden zwischen ihnen zu wahren. Doch wer ist dieser Aufgabe gewachsen Auf Anraten des Götterboten Hermes beschließte er, mit einer Sterblichen ein Kind zu zeugen: einen Halbgott. Seine Wahl fällt auf Alkmene, die Königin von Theben und Nachfahrin des Perseus. Ihr gemeinsamer Sohn Herakles wird der größte aller Krieger sein, gesegnet mit unendlicher Kraft und dem Mut eines Löwen. Doch die Eifersucht der Göttermutter Hera wirft einen Schatten auf das Schicksal dieses Sohnes der Vorhersehung.Der Mythos des Herakles und seiner 12 Arbeiten, seines tragischen Schicksals und seines Aufstiegs in den Olymp, ist vielleicht die bekannteste aller antiken Sagen und hat dank seiner Mischung aus Action, Abenteuer und Dramatik auch in unserer modernen Welt nichts an Faszinationskraft eingebüßt.Große Epen, mächtige Götter, phantastische Ungeheuer, außergewöhnliche Helden - die griechische Mythologie ist ein unerschöpflicher Quell wundervoller und aufregender Abenteuer. Auch heute können wir aus ihr lernen, und darum bildet sie immer noch ein Herzstück der humanistischen Bildung auf der ganzen Welt. »Mythen der Antike« lässt uns eine Reihe der wichtigsten Sagen als Comics neu entdecken. Unter der Leitung von Luc Ferry, dem ehemaligen französischen Bildungsminister, wurden die Originaltexte mit größter Sorgfalt adaptiert und graphisch brillant umgesetzt. Jeder Band präsentiert einen kompletten Mythos, dessen philosophisches und kulturelles Erbe in einem umfassenden Ergänzungsteil erläutert wird. 168 pp. Deutsch

346-seitige deutsche Erstausgabe. Umfangreicher Bildband mit Fotografien von William Klein, aufgenommen in Paris. Als Kind träumte William Klein davon, wie Man Ray, Henry Miller, Gertrude Stein und andere amerikanische Flüchtlinge in Paris zu leben. 1948 wurde er dort aus der US-Armee entlassen und beschloss zu bleiben, seiner Familie in New York zu entfliehen und Maler zu werden. In kurzer Zeit fand er eine neue Familie, Anerkennung für sein Talent und Jeanne, seine heutige Partnerin. Paris + Klein kombiniert sowohl Schwarzweiß- als auch Farbfotografien, von den ersten, die er in den sechziger Jahren aufgenommen hat, bis hin zu denen, die nur wenige Tage vor dem Druck der ersten französischen Ausgabe im März 2002 aufgenommen wurden: Straßen, Politik, das Anonyme und das Berühmte, Mode, Feste, Sport, Tod. Erleben Sie den Alltag der Stadt anhand von Kleins Vision: ironisch, seltsam, gewalttätig, humorvoll und letztendlich bewegend. Maler, Fotograf, Grafikdesigner, Filmemacher, Amerikaner in Paris, William Klein entkommt Schubladen, Kategorien und Bewegungen.
