Download or read book Philip s Planisphere Latitude 51 5 North written by and published by Philip's. This book was released on 2012-01-06 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invaluable for both beginners and advanced observers, Philip's Planisphere (Latitude 51.5 North) is a practical hour-by-hour tracker of the stars and constellations, designed for use anywhere in Britain and Ireland, Northern Europe, Northern USA and Canada. Turn the oval panel to the required date and time to reveal the whole sky visible from your location.The map, by the well-known celestial cartographer Wil Tirion, shows stars down to magnitude 5, plus several deep-sky objects, such as the Pleiades, the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) and the Orion Nebula (M42). Because the planets move round the Sun, their positions in the sky are constantly changing and they cannot be marked permanently on the map; however, the back of the planisphere has tables giving the positions of Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn for every month until 2020.The planisphere is supplied in a full-colour wallet that contains illustrated step-by-step instructions for how to use the planisphere, how to locate planets, and how to work out the time of sunrise or sunset for any day of the year. It explains all the details that can be seen on the map - the magnitudes of stars, the ecliptic and the celestial coordinates. In addition, the section 'Exploring the skies, season by season' introduces the novice astronomer to the principal celestial objects visible at different times of the year. Major constellations are used as signposts to navigate the night sky, locating hard-to-find stars and some fascinating deep-sky objects. The movement of the stars is also explained.

Download or read book Guide to Convolutional Neural Networks written by Hamed Habibi Aghdam and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This must-read text/reference introduces the fundamental concepts of convolutional neural networks (ConvNets), offering practical guidance on using libraries to implement ConvNets in applications of traffic sign detection and classification. The work presents techniques for optimizing the computational efficiency of ConvNets, as well as visualization techniques to better understand the underlying processes. The proposed models are also thoroughly evaluated from different perspectives, using exploratory and quantitative analysis. Topics and features: explains the fundamental concepts behind training linear classifiers and feature learning; discusses the wide range of loss functions for training binary and multi-class classifiers; illustrates how to derive ConvNets from fully connected neural networks, and reviews different techniques for evaluating neural networks; presents a practical library for implementing ConvNets, explaining how to use a Python interface for the library to create and assess neural networks; describes two real-world examples of the detection and classification of traffic signs using deep learning methods; examines a range of varied techniques for visualizing neural networks, using a Python interface; provides self-study exercises at the end of each chapter, in addition to a helpful glossary, with relevant Python scripts supplied at an associated website. This self-contained guide will benefit those who seek to both understand the theory behind deep learning, and to gain hands-on experience in implementing ConvNets in practice. As no prior background knowledge in the field is required to follow the material, the book is ideal for all students of computer vision and machine learning, and will also be of great interest to practitioners working on autonomous cars and advanced driver assistance systems.

Download or read book The Universe is Wise and Loving written by Nadiya Shah and published by Synchronicity Publications. This book was released on 2020-08-22 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Astrology is, at its root, intimately tied to the development and evolution of human spiritual understanding. It is a living tool, adapting to the culture it finds itself in, in order to best serve the people who use it. Our orientation to the sky represents how we understand ourselves as human beings, our power and our potential. Astrology has been made stronger and been expanded on by every culture and religion, ancient, historical, or contemporary. Whether past, present, or future, when we practice astrology, we are part of them all. One of the key concepts of the 11th century Sufi mystic and astrologer Ibn' Arabi, was what he called 'The Magnificent Breath'. Arabi believed that we are the breath of the divine. He said that every emotion, fear, longing, or elation that we feel is another way that the creator knows itself more fully. And if we had not been there to experience that exact feeling, then that breath could not be complete without us. What Arabi called God, was actually an energy that lived, breathed, was strengthened, and grew through our lived human experience. What we call God is the entirety, and the best that humanity can be. What Arabi called God, I came to call Love and Wisdom. The planets speak to what we want, why we want it, and how we go about getting it. Additionally, all planets have nodes. The nodes are not physical bodies in the sky, but are considered chart points representing key moments on the orbital path on the ecliptic for that planet. Symbolically, we have come to understand the nodes as speaking to the higher, spiritual intention of that planet. The Moon represents what we need to be at peace with ourselves. The Moon is how we go about seeking and reaching emotional equilibrium. The Nodes of the Moon are the most widely used planetary nodes in astrology. The Moon is the conscious part of us that has learned, through demonstration and nurturance, what home and comfort looks and feels like. But the nodes of the Moon are more profound. They speak to how it is that the Moon desires to align us with a wise and loving Universe. It is as if the ancients understood that honoring the higher intention of the part of us that seeks peace, is a powerful pathway towards honoring the spiritual intuition of this lifetime, which is always to embody Love and Wisdom, more and more fully. Written with Nadiya's encouraging and spiritual approach on each page, The Universe is Wise and Loving roots you in an understanding of the Nodes as guide posts on your journey towards greater love and greater wisdom. We will go through the sign/house placement of your Nodes in the first part, and then we will go through each of the planets and Chiron, to explore aspects to the nodes, whether natally or by transit. French Vanity Fair named Nadiya Shah one of the top 12 astrologers on the planet, crowning her a pioneer in video astrology.

Download or read book Jung on Astrology written by C. G. Jung and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jung on Astrology brings together C. G. Jung’s thoughts on astrology in a single volume for the first time, significantly adding to our understanding of Jung’s work. Jung’s Collected Works, seminars, and letters contain numerous discussions of this ancient divinatory system, and Jung himself used astrological horoscopes as a diagnostic tool in his analytic practice. Understood in terms of his own psychology as a symbolic representation of the archetypes of the collective unconscious, Jung found in astrology a wealth of spiritual and psychological meaning and suggested it represents the "sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity." The selections and editorial introductions by Safron Rossi and Keiron Le Grice address topics that were of critical importance to Jung—such as the archetypal symbolism in astrology, the precession of the equinoxes and astrological ages, astrology as a form of synchronicity and acausal correspondence, the qualitative nature of time, and the experience of astrological fate—allowing readers to assess astrology’s place within the larger corpus of Jung’s work and its value as a source of symbolic meaning for our time. The book will be of great interest to analytical psychologists, Jungian psychotherapists and academics and students of depth psychology, Jungian and post-Jungian studies, as well as to astrologers and therapists of other orientations, especially transpersonal.
