John Dewey's Metaphysical Theory
by Paul Benjamin CherlinJohn Dewey’s Metaphysical Theory provides an overview and technical exposition of Dewey’s mature ontological theory. In particular, “nature,” “experience,” and their relationship, are given extended treatment through a close reading of primary texts. Following Dewey’s metaphysical postulates and conclusions, the book suggests how experience may reveal the fundamental traits of nature. In addition, the book reveals how Dewey understood the ways in which all phenomena may relate within an inclusive economy of existence, what it means to have an “identity,” what constitutes “selfhood” or personality, and how metaphysics relates to the ideals of democracy and social ethics.
Galileo and Satellite Navigation (SpringerBriefs in History of Science and Technology)
by Alessandro De AngelisThis book explores the Galilean method for geolocation, placing it in historical and astronomical context. It bridges the techniques developed by the Greeks and medieval astronomers with later innovations like precision clocks, 20th-century wireless technology, and space-based navigation. The primary source is the twenty-volume National Edition of the Works of Galileo (published 1890-1909 by Antonio Favaro) and the update edited by Michele Camerota and Patrizia Ruffo in 2019, which includes previously unpublished documents on Galileo's negotiations with the Spanish government for selling his longitude-determining method at sea. This book inspired the 2024 "International Research Day in the World," focused on geolocation, organized by the Italian Permanent Delegation to International Organizations in Paris. In collaboration with Museo Galileo in Florence and Sorbonne Université, the event featured the exhibition “Galileo and Satellite Navigation,” showcased at the Pierre et Marie Curie Campus in Paris (June 13-28, 2024), and later at the Italian Institutes of Culture in Prague and Amsterdam, and at the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Canada.
Human Pose Analysis: Deep Learning Meets Human Kinematics in Video
by Songlin Du Takeshi IkenagaThis book stands at the intersection of computer vision, artificial intelligence, and human kinematics, offering a comprehensive exploration of the principles, methodologies, and applications of human pose analysis in video data. It covers two main aspects: human body pose analysis and human head pose analysis. Human body pose analysis involves estimating the position and orientation of major joints and body parts, such as the head, neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles, to capture the entire body posture in 2D or 3D space. In contrast, human head pose analysis focuses solely on the head’s orientation, typically estimating the angles of rotation around the yaw, pitch, and roll axes to determine the direction in which a person is looking or tilting their head. The book is divided into three parts, each detailing recent research in different areas of pose analysis. The first chapter provides an overview of human body and head pose analysis, including the fundamental principles of kinematic representation, as well as commonly used datasets and evaluation metrics. The first part, consisting of Chapters 2 and 3, delves into 2D human body pose analysis. The second part, spanning Chapters 4 through 7, covers the latest advancements in 3D human body pose estimation, focusing on inferring 3D positions and orientations of body joints from 2D images or videos. The third part, covering Chapters 8 and 9, presents recent studies on 3D human head pose analysis, encompassing both 3D head pose estimation and prediction. The final chapter concludes by summarizing the techniques discussed and outlining future research directions and applications in human body and head pose analysis.
Wissen, was gut ist: Moralische Bildung im Spannungsfeld zwischen Manipulation und Beliebigkeit (Philosophische Bildung in Schule und Hochschule)
by Dominik BalgWas sind die Ziele moralischer Bildung? Angesichts aktueller moralischer Herausforderungen, so ein naheliegender Gedanke, müssen wir zukünftigen Generationen gezielt vermitteln, dass einige Rede- und Verhaltensweisen schlichtweg moralisch problematisch sind, und dass es spezifische moralische Prinzipien gibt, die es zu berücksichtigen gilt. Gleichzeitig provoziert eine solche Überlegung unmittelbar die Sorge, dass es sich bei der Vermittlung spezifischer moralischer Ansichten um eine Form illegitimer Bevormundung handeln würde – sollte es bei moralischer Bildung nicht vielmehr um die Befähigung zur eigenständigen Reflexion moralischer Problemzusammenhänge gehen? Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Spannung zwischen dem Wunsch, klar für konkrete Werte einzustehen und der Sorge, Heranwachsende in ihrem Recht auf eine individuelle Urteilsbildung einzuschränken, möchte ich die Idee diskutieren, dass es bei moralischer Bildung um die gezielte Vermittlung moralischen Wissens gehen sollte – also Wissen darüber, was moralisch richtig und was moralisch falsch ist. Obwohl es sich hierbei um eine durchaus kontroverse Idee handelt, verdient Sie vor dem Hintergrund aktueller moralischer Herausforderungen meiner Meinung nach dringend einer genaueren Betrachtung.
