Ming Zhou – författare

In this issue of Surgical Pathology Clinics, guest editor Dr. Ming Zhou brings his considerable expertise to the topic of Genitourinary Pathology. Top experts in the field cover key topics such as prostate cancer: update on grading and reporting; cribriform lesions of the prostate; urothelial carcinoma: divergent differentiation and variants; kidney tumors: new developments in existing WHO kidney tumor entities; and more.

With the advent of proteomics came the development of technologies, primarily mass spectrometry, which allowed high-throughput identification of proteins in complex mixtures.  While the mass spectrometer resides at the heart of proteomics, its ability to characterize biological samples is only as good as the sample preparation and data analysis tools used in any study.  In Proteomics for Biomarker Discovery, expert researchers in the field detail many of the methods which are now commonly used to study proteomics. These include methods and techniques include both label-free approaches and those that utilize stable isotopes incorporated both during cell growth or added via a chemical reaction once the proteome is extracted from the cell. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.  Authoritative and practical, Proteomics for Biomarker Discovery seeks to aid scientists in the further study the different sample preparation and data analysis tools used in proteomics today.

The new Fifth Series Fascicle of the AFIP Atlas of Tumor and Non-tumor Pathology includes these developments as well as abundant images and diagrams to depict the morphological spectrum of disease entities. In this richly illustrated atlas, the authors emphasize the gross and light microscopic diagnosis and differential diagnosis, present immunohistochemistry and molecular pathology studies that are of current value in diagnosis, and discuss pathological diagnosis in terms of prognosis and treatment.

This book retains the core contents of the successful first edition and covers all the practical issues related to prostate biopsy diagnosis in day-to-day practice.

TheAsiaInformationRetrievalSymposium(AIRS)wasestablishedbytheAsian information retrieval community after the successful series of Information - trieval with Asian Languages (IRAL) workshops held in six di?erent locations in Asia, starting from 1996. While the IRAL workshops had their focus on inf- mation retrieval problems involving Asian languages, AIRS covers a wider scope of applications, systems, technologies and theory aspects of information retrieval in text, audio, image, video and multimedia data. This extension of the scope re?ects and fosters increasing research activities in information retrieval in this region and the growing need for collaborations across subdisciplines. We are very pleased to report that we saw a sharp increase in the number of submissions and their quality, compared to the IRAL workshops. We received 106papersfromninecountriesinAsiaandNorthAmerica,fromwhich28papers (26%) were presented in oral sessions and 38 papers in poster sessions (36%). It was a great challenge for the Program Committee to select the best among the excellent papers. The low acceptance rates witness the success of this year’s conference. After a long discussion between the AIRS 2004 Steering Committee and Springer, the publisher agreed to publish our proceedings in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, which is SCI-indexed. We feel that this strongly attests to the excellent quality of the papers.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First CCF Conference, NLPCC 2012, held in Beijing, China, during October/November, 2012. The 43 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 151 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on applications on language computing; fundamentals on language computing; machine translation and multi-lingual information access; NLP for search, ads and social networks; question answering and Web mining.

This book covers all the practical issues related to the interpretation of prostatic biopsies in day-to-day practice, including: biopsy sampling and processing;

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second China Conference on Knowledge Graph and Semantic Computing, CCKS 2017, held in Chengdu, China, in August 2017. The 11 revised full papers and 6 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 85 submissions. The papers cover wide research fields including the knowledge graph, the Semantic Web, linked data, NLP, knowledge representation, graph databases.

This book provides a detailed description of the flexibility of the power system with high share of variable renewable generation, including power system flexibility modeling, flexibility-based economic dispatch, demand side flexibility response, large-scale distributed flexible resources aggregation and market design for enhancing the flexibility of the power system, etc. The book provides an appropriate blend of theoretical background and practical applications of the power system flexibility, which are developed as working algorithms, coded in MATLAB and GAMS environments. This feature strengthens the usefulness of the book for graduate students and practitioners. Students will gain an insightful understanding of the flexibility of the power system with high share of renewables integration, including: (1) the formulation of flexibility modeling and flexibility-based economic dispatch models, (2) the familiarization with efficient solution algorithms for such models, (3) insights into these problems through the detailed analysis of numerous illustrative examples and (4) market design approach for enhancing the flexibility of the power system. Hopefully, this book greatly benefits readers in the fields of energy economics and engineering.
