Model Optimization Methods for Efficient and Edge AI

Federated Learning Architectures, Frameworks and Applications

By: Pethuru Raj Chelliah,Amir Masoud Rahmani,Robert Colby,Gayathri Nagasubramanian,Sunku Ranganath

Comprehensive overview of the fledgling domain of federated learning (FL), explaining emerging FL methods, architectural approaches, enabling frameworks, and applications Model Optimization Methods for Efficient and Edge AI explores AI model engineering, evaluation, refinement, optimization, and deployment across multiple cloud environments (public, private, edge, and hybrid). It presents key applications of the AI paradigm, including computer vision (CV) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), explaining the nitty-gritty of federated learning (FL) and how the FL method is helping to fulfill AI model optimization needs. The book also describes tools that vendors have created, including FL frameworks and platforms such as PySyft, Tensor Flow Federated (TFF), FATE (Federated AI Technology Enabler), Tensor/IO, and more. The first part of the text covers popular AI and ML methods, platforms, and applications, describing leading AI frameworks and libraries in order to clearly articulate how these tools can help with visualizing and implementing highly flexible AI models quickly. The second part focuses on federated learning, discussing its basic concepts, applications, platforms, and its potential in edge systems (such as IoT). Other topics covered include: Building AI models that are destined to solve several problems, with a focus on widely articulated classification, regression, association, clustering, and other prediction problems Generating actionable insights through a variety of AI algorithms, platforms, parallel processing, and other enablers Compressing AI models so that computational, memory, storage, and network requirements can be substantially reduced Addressing crucial issues such as data confidentiality, data access rights, data protection, and access to heterogeneous data Overcoming cyberattacks on mission-critical software systems by leveraging federated learning

Cognitive Agent-based Computing-I

A Unified Framework for Modeling Complex Adaptive Systems using Agent-based & Complex Network-based Methods

By: Muaz A Niazi,Amir Hussain

Complex Systems are made up of numerous interacting sub-components. Non-linear interactions of these components or agents give rise to emergent behavior observable at the global scale. Agent-based modeling and simulation is a proven paradigm which has previously been used for effective computational modeling of complex systems in various domains. Because of its popular use across different scientific domains, research in agent-based modeling has primarily been vertical in nature. The goal of this manuscript is to provide a single hands-on guide to developing cognitive agent-based models for the exploration of emergence across various types of complex systems. We present practical ideas and examples for researchers and practitioners for the building of agent-based models using a horizontal approach - applications are demonstrated in a number of exciting domains as diverse as wireless sensors networks, peer-to-peer networks, complex social systems, research networks, epidemiological HIV

Smart Internal Stimulus-Responsive Nanocarriers for Drug and Gene Delivery

Smart Internal Stimulus-Responsive Nanocarriers for Drug and Gene Delivery

By: Mahdi Karimi,Parham Sahandi Zangabad,Amir Ghasemi,Michael R Hamblin

The concept of smart drug delivery vehicles involves designing and preparing a nanostructure (or microstructure) that can be loaded with a cargo. This can be a therapeutic drug, a contrast agent for imaging, or a nucleic acid for gene therapy. The nanocarrier serves to protect the cargo from degradation by enzymes in the body, to enhance the solubility of insoluble drugs, to extend the circulation half-life, and to enhance its penetration and accumulation at the target site. Importantly, smart nanocarriers can be designed to be responsive to a specific stimulus, so that the cargo is only released or activated when desired. In this volume we cover smart nanocarriers that respond to internal stimuli that are intrinsic to the target site. These stimuli are specific to the cell type, tissue or organ type, or to the disease state (cancer, infection, inflammation etc). pH-responsive nanostructures can be used for cargo release in acidic endosomal compartments, in the lower pH of tumors, and for specific oral delivery either to the stomach or intestine. Nanocarriers can be designed to be substrates of a wide-range of enzymes that are over-expressed at disease sites. Oxidation and reduction reactions can be taken advantage of in smart nanocarriers by judicious molecular design. Likewise, nanocarriers can be designed to respond to a range of specific biomolecules that may occur at the target site. In this volume we also cover dual and multi-responsive systems that combine stimuli that could be either internal or external.

Protective Material Coatings For Preserving Cultural Heritage Monuments and Artwork

By: Amir Ershad-Langroudi

Long-standing artworks and monuments show the wisdom and cultural identity of an ancient society along with the educational, material and spiritual merits of the people of that time. However, many historical artifacts and cultural monuments have been eroded over time and are in danger of deterioration beyond repair. There is a need to protect and conserve these artifacts. Restoration and preservation requires a multidisciplinary understanding of the inherent properties of these works based on the type of material and sufficient information in the properties of protective and conservation materials and research methods. Protective Material Coatings For Preserving Cultural Heritage Monuments and Artwork aims to familiarize students with the recent practices in conservation and restoration science in recent years by presenting a modern orientation on the subject focused on material coatings. Readers will be able to understand the properties of different materials in antique objects and how to adopt appropriate treatment methods based on these properties. This book consists of 5 chapters. In the first chapter, materials analysis techniques are described for historical monuments along with coatings used to preserve them. The second chapter introduces the properties of metals, alloys, and their common corrosion and explains protection strategies for metal monuments. An emphasis is given to nanocomposite coatings to prevent decay, especially through electrochemical corrosion. Chapter 3 is devoted to studying natural leather and parchments and their conservation from damage by environmental factors such as UV radiation, temperature, and humidity. The fourth chapter deals with stone works, which are in many historical objects. Chapter 5 introduces the reader to additional preservation materials and innovative methods employed to protect historical monuments and cultural heritage sites. Information about the removal of materials, cleaning of improper prior repairs is also given. Protective Material Coatings For Preserving Cultural Heritage Monuments and Artwork is an ideal book for students of archeology, architecture, materials science and contemporary arts courses who are required to learn about the techniques of preserving antique buildings and works of art. It also serves as a handy reference for professionals and general readers interested in the curation of museums and the conservation of buildings, and cultural heritage sites.

Sentiment Analysis in the Bio-Medical Domain

Techniques, Tools, and Applications

By: Ranjan Satapathy,Erik Cambria,Amir Hussain

The abundance of text available in social media and health-related forums and blogs have recently attracted the interest of the public health community to use these sources for opinion mining. This book presents a lexicon-based approach to sentiment analysis in the bio-medical domain, i.e., WordNet for Medical Events (WME). This book gives an insight in handling unstructured textual data and converting it to structured machine-processable data in the bio-medical domain. The readers will discover the following key novelties: 1) development of a bio-medical lexicon: WME expansion and WME enrichment with additional features.; 2) ensemble of machine learning and computational creativity; 3) development of microtext analysis techniques to overcome the inconsistency in social communication. It will be of interest to researchers in the fields of socially-intelligent human-machine interaction and biomedical text mining
