Book excerpt: Test yourself against The Economist's champion quiz team - the only trivia book you'll ever need! Trivia books are a dime a dozen. Trust The Economist, which knows the price and the value of everything, to do something different. In its first ever trivia book in a 175-year history, the sharp wits of The Economist's own champion pub quiz team (team name: Marginal Futility) throw down the gauntlet for a genuinely tough contest. Ranging over the globe and the sweep of world history, peering into the most significant developments in science, politics and culture, this is the rare quiz whose answers shed real light on the ways of the world. For example: Where did 15th-Century popes live? Which European country's flag features a double-headed eagle?

Book excerpt: TEST YOURSELF AGAINST THE ECONOMIST'S CHAMPION QUIZ TEAM - THE ONLY QUIZ BOOK YOU NEED THIS CHRISTMAS General knowledge quizzes are ten a penny. Trust The Economist, which knows both the price and the value of everything, to do something different. In its first ever quiz book in a 175-year history, the sharp wits of The Economist's own champion quiz team ('Marginal Futility') throw down the gauntlet for a genuinely severe contest. Ranging over the globe and the sweep of world history, peering into the most significant developments in science, politics and culture, this is the rare quiz whose answers shed real light on the ways of the world. What was Europe's first attempt at an international currency union, before the Euro was a twinkle in Jacques Delors's eye? Where did 15th-Century popes live? Who sang Diggi-Loo Diggi-Ley?

This book was released on 2004-06-17 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ThisvolumeconstitutestheproceedingsoftheSixthInternationalConferenceon Flexible Query Answering Systems, FQAS 2004, held in Lyon, France, on June 24–26, 2004. FQAS is the premier conference for researchers and practitioners concerned with the vital task of providing easy, ?exible, and intuitive access to information for every type of need. This multidisciplinary conference draws on several research areas, including databases, information retrieval, knowledge representation, soft computing, multimedia, and human-computer interaction. With FQAS 2004, the FQAS conference series celebrated its tenth anniversary as it has been held every two years since 1994. The overall theme of the FQAS conferences is innovative query systems aimed at providing easy, ?exible, and intuitive access to information. Such systems are intended to facilitate retrieval from information repositories such as databases, libraries, and the Web. These repositories are typically equipped with standard query systems that are often inadequate for users. The focus of FQAS is the development of query systems that are more expressive, informative, cooperative, productive, and intuitive to use.

Download or read book Bayesian Models of Cognition written by Thomas L. Griffiths and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2024-11-12 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive introduction to Bayesian cognitive science, written by pioneers of the field. How does human intelligence work, in engineering terms? How do our minds get so much from so little? Bayesian models of cognition provide a powerful framework for answering these questions by reverse-engineering the mind. This textbook offers an authoritative introduction to Bayesian cognitive science and a unifying theoretical perspective on how the mind works. Part I provides an introduction to the key mathematical ideas and illustrations with examples from the psychological literature, including detailed derivations of specific models and references that can be used to learn more about the underlying principles. Part II details more advanced topics and their applications before engaging with critiques of the reverse-engineering approach. Written by experts at the forefront of new research, this comprehensive text brings the fields of cognitive science and artificial intelligence back together and establishes a firmly grounded mathematical and computational foundation for the understanding of human intelligence. The only textbook comprehensively introducing the Bayesian approach to cognition Written by pioneers in the field Offers cutting-edge coverage of Bayesian cognitive science's research frontiers Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students and researchers across the sciences with an interest in the mind, brain, and intelligence Features short tutorials and case studies of specific Bayesian models

The availability of fast, reliable, and cheap electronic communi- tion o?ers the opportunity to perform, electronically and in a distributed way, a wide range of transactions of a most diverse nature. The conference brought together researchersin the ?elds of cryptographyand securityin communication networkswith the goalof fostering cooperationand exchangeof ideas. The main topics of the conference this year included anonymity, implementations, auth- tication, symmetric-key cryptography, complexity-based cryptography, privacy, cryptanalysis, cryptographic protocols, digital signatures, public-key cryptog- phy, hash functions, identi?cation. The international Program Committee consisted of 24 members who are top experts in the conference ?elds. The PC received 71 submissions and selected 26 papers for presentation at the conference. These proceedings include the 26 accepted papers and the abstract of the invited talk by Shai Halevi.
