Probabilistic Deep Learning is a hands-on guide to the principles that support neural networks. Learn to improve network performance with the right distribution for different data types, and discover Bayesian variants that can state their own uncertainty to increase accuracy. This book provides easy-to-apply code and uses popular frameworks to keep you focused on practical applications.

Dieses besondere Lehrbuch führt in die Berechnung von Verbrennungsmotoren ein, geht dabei von aktuellen Fragestellungen z. B. zur Fahrzeugdynamik oder Motorthermodynamik aus und stellt bei der Lösung die notwendige Theorie mit bereit. Damit auch Quereinsteiger erfolgreich sind, ist in einem Verzeichnis aufgeführt, welche theoretischen Kenntnisse man für die Lösung der jeweiligen Aufgabe benötigt und in welchem Abschnitt des Buches diese hergeleitet werden. Alle Berechnungen werden in Excel durchgeführt. In der vorliegenden Auflage wurden aktuelle Beispiele zur Motoreffizienz, zum Motorkennfeld, zur Lastpunktanhebung, zum Fahrzyklus WLTC und zu realen Fahrzyklen (RDE) ergänzt. Der Inhalt: - Fahrwiderstand und Motorleistung - Kraftstoffe und Stöchiometrie - Motorleistung und Mitteldruck - Motorthermodynamik - Motormechanik - Fahrzeugdynamik - Hybrid- und Elektrofahrzeuge - Aufladung von Verbrennungsmotoren Die Zielgruppen: Studierende des Maschinenbaus und der Kfz-Technik an Hochschulen in Bachelor- und Masterstudiengängen; Motoreningenieure, die sich mit verbrennungsmotorischen Fragestellungen beschäftigen; Absolventen von Weiterbildungskursen auf Meisterniveau Der Autor Dr.-Ing. Klaus Schreiner ist Professor an der HTWG Konstanz und Leiter des Labors für Verbrennungsmotoren in der Fakultät Maschinenbau. Er war viele Jahre lang Didaktikbeauftragter seiner Hochschule. Im Jahr 2008 erhielt er den Lehrpreis des Landes Baden-Württemberg.

Some 165 global experts and specialists from industry and academic institutes met at the 8th Metallization & Interconnection Workshop (MIW2019) that took place from 13 to 14 May 2019 in Konstanz, Germany. Participants from 19 countries debated results of 28 oral and 11 poster presentations. All presentations are available on www.metallizationworkshop.info as pdf documents. As in previous editions, lots of room was available for discussions and networking during the two-days program which included panel and market-place discussions as well as social events (reception, workshop dinner). These proceedings contain: a summary of the oral and poster presentations, the results of the survey conducted during the workshop, and peer-reviewed papers based on workshop contributions.

Drawing on a rich body of multimethod field research, this book examines the ways in which Indonesian and Philippine religious actors have fostered conflict resolution and under what conditions these efforts have been met with success or limited success. The book addresses two central questions: In what ways, and to what extent, have post-conflict peacebuilding activities of Christian churches contributed to conflict transformation in Mindanao (Philippines) and Maluku (Indonesia)? And to what extent have these church-based efforts been affected by specific economic, political, or social contexts? Based on extensive fieldwork, the study operates with a nested, multi-dimensional, and multi-layered methodological concept which combines qualitative and quantitative methods. Major findings are that church-based peace activities do matter, that they have higher approval rates than state projects, and that they have fostered interreligious understanding. Through innovative analysis, this book fills a lacuna in the study of ethno-religious conflicts. Informed by the novel Comparative Area Studies (CAS) approach, this book is strictly comparative, includes in-case and cross-case comparisons, and bridges disciplinary research with Area Studies. It will be of interest to academics in the fields of conflict and peacebuilding studies, interreligious dialogue, Southeast Asian Studies, and Asian Politics.
