As new discoveries transform our view of the universe, this book focuses on the core questions: Is any living organism only the result of programming? What of the human being? Are we a robot participating in the living world or a consciousness in a biological habitat?
Enhanced Learning Environments
This book looks beyond buzzwords for the ground truth in how technology can enhance education. It makes a strong case for how innovations like immersive virtual reality, accessible Hollywood technology, and the metaverse can create a new frontier for future-focused learning.
Using real-world cases, this book illustrates how to handle volatile financial time series data. Learn to apply statistical, machine learning, and deep learning techniques with R and Python to build robust predictive models and construct profitable investment portfolios.
Neuroinformatics and Semantic Representations
This book proposes a neural network for structural information analysis. Inspired by the human brain, this approach reconstructs a model of the world to interpret behaviour and enables automatic semantic analysis of text, constructing a semantic portrait from any stream.
Virtual and Augmented Reality
This book explores the latest research in education design for virtual and augmented reality. Using numerous studies and examples, it will help the reader gain a better understanding of the nature of these realities and their applications in theory and practice.
This collection of essays tackles classic questions: What is life? What is consciousness? It explores whether evolution is predetermined, if science and spirituality can harmonize, and if AI is at odds with the human spirit. Each chapter includes science fiction stories on AI.
Wallace examines the social, technical and educational implications of a society where hyper-reality, artificial intelligence and robotics may be at the centre of the new online spaces that will surely further shape us into an unknown future.
Post-editing of Machine Translation
A surge of interest in post-editing, the oldest form of human-machine cooperation for translation, is fundamentally changing the industry. This volume compiles work by researchers, developers, and practitioners on this essential, evolving practice.
