Deep Learning in Textual Low-Data Regimes for Cybersecurity
In today's fast-paced cybersecurity landscape, professionals are increasingly challenged by the vast volumes of cyber threat data, making it difficult to identify and mitigate threats effectively. Traditional clustering methods help in broadly categorizing threats but fall short when it comes to the fine-grained analysis necessary for precise threat management. Supervised machine learning offers a potential solution, but the rapidly changing nature of cyber threats renders static models ineffective and the creation of new models too labor-intensive. This book addresses these challenges by introducing innovative low-data regime methods that enhance the machine learning process with minimal labeled data. The proposed approach spans four key stages: Data Acquisition: Leveraging active learning with advanced models like GPT-4 to optimize data labeling.Preprocessing: Utilizing GPT-2 and GPT-3 for data augmentation to enrich and diversify datasets.Model Selection: Developing a specialized cybersecurity language model and using multi-level transfer learning.Prediction: Introducing a novel adversarial example generation method, grounded in explainable AI, to improve model accuracy and resilience.

Fluid Motion Unmasked
This book provides an engaging and descriptive introduction to the expansive world of fluid flows in nature and engineering, exploring their critical role in our lives. The diverse mechanisms behind observable phenomena and the properties of fluid flows are illuminated and linked to engineering applications, providing a solid foundation for a deeper appreciation of fluid dynamics. While the science underpinning these phenomena is inherently mathematical, this book intentionally avoids all but the most easily understood general principles. Instead, it provides a descriptive coverage of the subject without trivialising or infantilising it. The text is richly illustrated with photos, diagrams and sketches, paired with thoughtful explanations of the key features within each figure. Supporting the discussion of these fundamental and overarching mechanisms, numerous real-world examples are showcased, including environmental flows, weather phenomena, physiological flows and engineering applications.Individual sections cover flows related to aircraft, cars, jet engines, wind turbines, propellers, cyclones, water-distribution networks, water waves, sailing boats, heat exchangers, nuclear reactors, artificial heart valves, urban fluid dynamics and even competitive sports like cycling and skiing. This book is a perfect first exposure to fluid flows and fluid mechanics for not only prospective and beginner science and engineering students but also scientifically curious non-specialists.

Paradigm of Optical Imaging
This book deals with various aspects of optical imaging such as technologies and design, evaluation and calibration, and their scientific applications and results. It discusses the fundamental aspects of optical imaging, Fourier optics, and imaging physics with emphasis on image retrieval techniques and anatomy and diagnostics of optical imaging systems. In addition to ray optics, the book describes the technical details of several important instruments, such as spectroscopes, microscopes, telescopes, interferometers, and medical diagnosis-related instruments. Added further are the factors that affect the quality of the images, speckles and holography, and passive and active methods that permit a telescope to achieve diffraction-limited imaging from the ground. The book will be a valuable resource for astronomers and students involved in the design of modern instrumentation or those attempting to make use of data with instrumentation designed by others.
Catastrophic Collapses
When structures fall, it is never just the steel and concrete that give way.Catastrophic Collapses: From Vision to Vulnerability is a gripping account of fifty disasters that scarred the modern world. From bridges that plunged into rivers and dams that burst, to towers that crumbled and industrial plants that failed, each story reveals how ambition, oversight, and flawed judgment unraveled the very systems meant to endure.This book traces not only the technical aspects of collapse but also the human and moral dimensions. Some failures arose from design flaws and ignored warnings, while others stemmed from misplaced confidence, ethical lapses, or responsibilities accepted too late.Covering events from the early twentieth century to the present day, this timeline of disasters highlights the lessons engineers, architects, students, and policymakers must carry forward. By understanding why things failed, we are reminded of what it takes to build responsibly in a world where the margin for error is slim.For readers fascinated by engineering, history, and the human side of failure, Catastrophic Collapses offers both a cautionary record and a compelling narrative. Because every collapse leaves a blueprint behind.This book is for engineers, architects, constructors, policymakers, and for all those curious about how great structures fall and what we must learn before history repeats itself. It also contains a glossary at the end to support readers who may not have an engineering or construction background but still wish to fully engage with the topics explored in the book. This volume serves as both a cautionary reference and an academic resource, making it suitable for libraries, universities, and professional collections in engineering, architecture, and social studies.

Earthquake Resistant Engineering Structures XIV
The contributions comprising this volume highlight the continuous need of carrying out further research on major earthquakes and associated effects such as tsunamis. The problems arising from such catastrophic events intensify as population pressure results in buildings in regions of high seismic vulnerability. A better understanding of these phenomena and their consequences is required for designing earthquake resistant structures as well as carrying out risk assessments and vulnerability studies.The challenge of protecting the built environment in earthquake-prone regions involves not only the optimal design and construction of new facilities but also the upgrading and rehabilitation of existing structures including heritage buildings. The latter include the types of highly specialized retrofitting employed to protect the built heritage.The papers comprising this volume were presented at the 14th International Conference on Earthquake Resistant Engineering Structures and cover fundamental and applied research addressing a range of issues among those mentioned above.
