    • English
    Machine Learning in Manufacturing: Quality 4.0 and the Zero Defects Vision reviews process monitoring based on machine learning algorithms and the technologies of the fourth industrial revolution and proposes Learning Quality Control (LQC), the evolution of Statistical Quality Control (SQC). This book identifies 10 big data issues in manufacturing and addresses them using an ad-hoc, 5-step problem-solving strategy that increases the likelihood of successfully deploying this Quality 4.0 initiative. With two case studies using structured and unstructured data, this book explains how to successfully deploy AI in manufacturing and how to move quality standards forward by developing virtually defect-free processes. This book enables engineers to identify Quality 4.0 applications and manufacturing companies to successfully implement Quality 4.0 practices.

  • Biostimulants in Plant Protection and Performance

    • 1st Edition
    • Azamal Husen
    • English
    Biostimulants in Plant Protection and Performance provides the latest research on biostimulants, a diverse class of compounds that includes substances or microorganisms that are helpful in sustainable plant growth and development. These substances accelerate plant growth, yield, and chemical composition even under unfavorable conditions, and include nitrogen-containing compounds, humic materials, some specific compounds released by microbes, plants, and animals, various seaweed extracts, bio-based nanomaterials, phosphite, silicon, and more. Additionally, the book discusses new generation products and bioproducts that are being developed for sustainable plant growth and protection, including research updates in biotechnology, nanobiotechnology, and the protective role of biostimulants. As the use of new generation biostimulants can enhance plant production systems through a significant reduction of synthetic chemicals, such as pesticides and fertilizers, and even elicit plant tolerance to various climate change-related stresses, this book is a welcomed edition to many fields of study.

  • Paraneoplastic Neurologic Disorders

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 200
    • English
    Paraneoplastic Neurological Disorders, Volume 200 covers new, recent descriptions of autoantibodies against neuronal cell surface antigens (only partly associated with paraneoplastic disorders) and the introduction of new immuno-oncological drugs that can contribute to diseases that are pathogenetically indistinguishable from paraneoplastic syndromes. Besides investigating the pathogenetic mechanisms of these disorders, this book also explores what the introduction of new drugs used in immune checkpoint inhibitor cancer therapy are teaching us in terms of immunopathogenesis. Following sections present individual syndromes (phenotypical clinical manifestations) of the CNS, PNS, NMJ, and muscle.Finally, the book investigates the role of antibody markers that differentiate by cytoplasmic, nuclear, and neuronal cell surface reactivities. Side effects of the new immuno-oncological drugs increasingly used in cancer therapy are also covered.
