Forum Theory suggests that Science and Learning are served by a National Assembly. Researchers can vote annually, while a National Academy may form a Senate. The Assembly improves governance, the forum itself, and research integrity.

Researchers in science and learning can simply create their National Assembly. They can set up a foundation, give rules of operation, recruit members, organise elections and have a constitutional meeting. With sufficiently large membership the operating costs ca...

In recent decades, worldwide, a number of disturbing miscarriages of justice have occurred. Strikingly, in some instances, jury members as well as professional judges misjudged the available evidence. Why, and how does this happen? Legal psychology is about the psychological interpretation of legal evidence, particularly criminal evidence. This book contains a general introduction to psychology as a science. Three psychological domains are discussed, namely perception, memory, and decision ma...

Leading international scholars are brought together to present readers with an exploration into the full diversity of the field of spatial media including technologies, spatial data, and consequences

This book is a detailed, empirical investigation into the question of whether academic social research can compete with the commercial sector, with its new technologies and big data, in order to classify, profile, and understand us.

The process—or story—of this work began, tracing back to February 2017. After working for about four years on a non-medical health initiative focused on preventing non-communicable diseases (NCDs), the author expanded his efforts to include non-traditional activities aimed at reducing early cognitive decline, including Alzheimer’s disease.

It was at the stage (stage 4), he learned about the individuality—or separation—of each nerve cell (neuron), along with the gaps or spaces betwee...

In new resources for individual psychological diagnosis wordt een onderzoekstechniek beschreven op basis van het werk van Gé Calis.

Tevens bouwt de benadering voort op het werk van beeldend kunstenaar Frans Coppelmans.

Dit onderzoeksinstrument richt zich zowel op de cognitie als op de emotie. Individuele gegevens worden verzameld door een subtiel samenspel tussen het onbewuste en bewuste in de mens.

Often, books about signal analysis and processing are either highly theoretical with high-level mathematics or contain oversimplified explanations which cannot answer the questions of how and why adequately. In this book, the writer attempts to explain the theory from a practical viewpoint, using a common-sense way of thinking. The theoretical principles described are mainly applied to speech sounds but the complex nature of these sounds makes this approach suitable to audio signals in general.

The book contains mathematical formulas, but sparsely used, serving as conclusions of the preceding explanations in ‘normal’ language. The more extended mathematical manipulations can be found in the appendice...

The human, the technical system, and the environment are the three elements for safety or three axes for the safety coordinate system. They have three mutual interactions. These form the six fundamental aspects for safety assessment system, represented by the Safety Cube. The Safety Cube is a theory, a method, and a game-changer for engineering safer products and systems.

This volume contains the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Automatic Translation for Sign and Spoken Languages (AT4SSL 2023), hosted by the 24th Annual Con- ference of The European Association for Machine Translation (EAMT 2023). This workshop is a venue for presenting and discussing (complete, ongoing or future) research on automatic translation between sign and spoken languages.
