Fast and Effective Embedded Systems Design, Third Edition is a fast-moving introduction to embedded systems design, applying the innovative Arm mbed "ecosystem," including both hardware components and its web-based development environment. Minimal background knowledge is needed to start. Each chapter introduces a major topic in embedded systems and proceeds as a series of practical experiments. A "learning through doing" strategy is adopted, with the underlying theory being introduced alongside. C/C++ programming is applied, with a step-by-step approach which allows you to get coding quickly. Once the basics are covered, the book progresses to some hot embedded topics - intelligent instrumentation, Bluetooth LE, Zigbee, real-time programming, and the Internet of Things. In this new edition all code is refreshed to match the new mbed operating system, and much new code is introduced. The principles of real-time operating systems are explained, and the capabilities of the mbed RTOS are clearly demonstrated. This third edition will readily form the basis of introductory and intermediate university or college courses in embedded systems.

??Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare and Biomedicine provides ?updated knowledge on the applications of artificial intelligence in medical image analysis. The book starts with an introduction to Artificial Intelligence techniques for Healthcare and Biomedicine. In 16 chapters it presents artificial applications in Electrocardiogram (ECG), Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Electromyography (EMG), signal analysis, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MR) and Ultrasound image analysis. It equips researchers with tools for early breast cancer detection from mammograms using artificial intelligence (AI), AI models to detect lung cancer using histopathological images and a deep learning-based approach to get a proper and faster diagnosis of the Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images. It also presents present 3D medical image analysis using 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare and Biomedicine closes with a chapter on AI-based approach to forecast diabetes patients' hospital re-admissions. This is a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers and healthcare professionals who are interested in learning more about the applications of Artificial Intelligence and its impact in medical/biomedical image analysis.

Biocontamination Control for Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare, Second Edition outlines a biocontamination strategy that tracks bio-burden control and reduction at each transition in classified areas of a facility. The first edition of the book covers many of the aspects of the strategy, but the new official guidance signals that a roadmap is required to fully comply with its requirements. Completely updated with the newest version of the EU-GPM (EN17141), this new edition expands coverage of quality risk management and contains completely new examples to help professionals bridge the gap between regulation and implementation. This book offers professionals in pharma quality control and related areas guidance on building a complete biocontamination strategy.

Reproducibility in Biomedical Research: Epistemological and Statistical Problems, Second Edition explores the ideas and conundrums inherent in scientific research. This second edition addresses new challenges to reproducibility in biosciences, namely reproducibility of machine learning Artificial Intelligence (AI), reproducibility of translation from research to medical care, and the fundamental challenges to reproducibility. All current chapters are expanded to cover advances in the topics previously addressed. This book provides biomedical researchers with a framework to better understand the reproducibility challenges in the area. Newly introduced interactive exercises and updated case studies help students understand the fundamental concepts involved in the area.

A comprehensive handbook covering the impact of social media on education, economy and politics

A Biologist¿s Guide to Artificial Intelligence: Building the Foundations of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Achieving Advancements in Life Sciences provides an overview of the basics of Artificial Intelligence for life science biologists. In 14 chapters/sections, readers will find an introduction to Artificial Intelligence from a biologist¿s perspective, including coverage of AI in precision medicine, disease detection, and drug development. The book also gives insights into the AI techniques used in biology and the applications of AI in food, and in environmental, evolutionary, agricultural, and bioinformatic sciences. Final chapters cover ethical issues surrounding AI and the impact of AI on the future. This book covers an interdisciplinary area and is therefore is an important subject matter resource and reference for researchers in biology and students pursuing their degrees in all areas of Life Sciences. It is also a useful title for the industry sector and computer scientists who would gain a better understanding of the needs and requirements of biological sciences and thus better tune the algorithms.

Introductory Differential Equations, Sixth Edition provides the foundations to assist students in learning not only how to read and understand differential equations, but also how to read technical material in more advanced texts as they progress through their studies. The book's accessible explanations and many robust sample problems are appropriate for a first semester course in introductory ordinary differential equations (including Laplace transforms), for a second course in Fourier series and boundary value problems, and for students with no background on the subject.

Emery and Rimoin¿s Principles and Practice of Medical Genetics and Genomics: Developmental Disorders, Seventh Edition is distinguished as the ultimate resource for clinicians integrating genetics into medical practice. This updated edition includes the latest information on seminal topics such as prenatal diagnosis, genome and exome sequencing, public health genetics, genetic counseling, and management and treatment strategies. This comprehensive yet practical resource emphasizes theory and research fundamentals related to applications of medical genetics across the full spectrum of inherited disorders and applications in medicine more broadly. Users will find comprehensive sections on medical genetics applied to a range of developmental disorders and an emphasis on understanding the genetic mechanisms underlying these disorders, diagnostic approaches, and therapeutics that make use of current genomic technologies and translational studies. Updated chapters on human developmental genetics as well as the genetics of sexual development, clefting, dental, and craniofacial syndromes, craniosynostosis, rasopathies, sex-chromosome abnormalities, and autosomal deletions, among other disorders are included.
