Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions at 60
Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions has sold more than one million copies since its publication in 1962, is one of the most cited academic books of all time, and continues to be read and studied today. This volume of new essays evaluates the significance of Kuhn's classic book in its changing historical context, including its initial reception and its lasting effects. The essays explore the range of ideas which Kuhn made popular with his influential philosophy of science, including paradigms, normal science, paradigm changes, scientific revolutions, and incommensurability; and they also look at less-studied themes in his work, including scientific measurement, science education, and science textbooks. Drawing on the latest scholarship as well as unpublished material in the Thomas Kuhn Archives at MIT, this volume offers a comprehensive way into Kuhn's philosophy and demonstrates the continuing relevance of his ideas for our understanding of science.

The Visualization of Second-Order Tensor Fields
The field of scientific visualization covers the study of visual representations of sci- entific data. These data often consist of continuous scalar, vector, or second-order tensor fields extending across a n-dimensional space, with n less than 1. While research efforts aimed at developing efficient representations of scalar and vector data have led to important achievements, this dissertation is the first extensive study of visualization techniques for second-order tensor fields. Tensor fields are multivariate; they can embed as much information as n squared scalar fields, or equivalently, n vector fields. Visualizing continuous tensor data is, therefore, difficult mainly because the underlying continuity must be rendered while visual clutter has to be avoided. We develop a theoretical ground work for the visualization of symmetric tensor fields by studying their geometry and their topological structure, and by designing at each step appropriate icons to represent the information. We also extend some of our concepts to asymmetric tensor data. First, we design icons that emphasize the continuity of the tensor data, overcoming some of the limitations of discrete point icons. A n-dimensional, symmetric tensor field is equivalent to n orthogonal families of smooth and continuous curves that are tangent to the eigenvector fields. For n = 2 we generate textures to render these trajectories, and for n = 3 we use numerical integration. To fully represent the tensor data, we surround the resulting trajectories by tubular surfaces that represent the transverse eigenvectors-we call these surfaces hyper-streamlines. We also define the concept of a solenoidal tensor field, and we show that its hyperstreamlines possess geometric properties similar to the streamlines of solenoidal vector fields. Then, we analyze the topology of symmetric tensor fields by using a formalism which is analogous to the phase-space analysis of dynamical systems.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Nanotechnology
This research paper discusses the transformational potential of nanotechnology, by the year 2035, to threaten U.S. national security, but also to provide unique deterrence options. Nanotechnology is increasingly inextricably linked to America's global economic competitiveness and national security. By 2035 U.S. leadership in nanotechnology will enable a nanotechnology-empowered military as a critical combat multiplier in support of our national security. The last Secretary of Defense believed that a primary lesson of the Global War on Terror was that our exploitation of military capabilities was more crucial to our success than sheer mass.

Providing a Theoretical Basis for Nanotoxicity Risk Analysis Departing From Traditional Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling
Novel properties of engineered nanoparticles that make them attractive may also present unique exposure risks. The traditional physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling assumption of instantaneous equilibration likely does not apply to nanoparticles. This simulation-based research begins with development of a model that includes di usion, active transport, and carrier mediated transport. Eigenvalue analysis was used to examine model behavior to focus future research. Results show that cellular transport processes greatly a ect biokinetics of nanoparticles. The new paradigm established by this research leverages traditional in vitro, in vivo, and PBPK modeling, but includes area under the curve to bridge animal testing results to humans. This allows assessment of risk and assists in setting appropriate exposure limits. The model provides critical understanding of nanoparticle biokinetics and allows estimation of total exposure. This e ort highlights future research needs and demonstrates how modeling can be used as a tool to advance nanoparticle risk assessment.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Consistency Properties for Growth Model Parameters Under an Infill Asymptotics Domain
Growth curves are used to model various processes, and are often seen in biological and agricultural studies. Underlying assumptions of many studies are that the process may be sampled forever, and that samples are statistically independent. We instead consider the case where sampling occurs in a finite domain, so that increased sampling forces samples closer together, and also assume a distance-based covariance function. We first prove that, under certain conditions, the mean parameter of a fixed-mean model cannot be estimated within a finite domain. We then numerically consider more complex growth curves, examining sample sizes, sample spacing, and quality of parameter estimates, and close with recommendations to practitioners.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

From Human Attention to Computational Attention
The new edition of this popular book introduces the study of attention, focusing on attention modeling, and addressing such themes as saliency models, signal detection, and different types of signals, including real-life applications. The first edition was written at a moment when the Deep Learning Neural Network (DNNs) techniques were just at their beginnings in terms of attention. Deep learning has recently become a key factor in attention prediction on images and video, and attention mechanisms have become key factors in deep learning models. The second edition tackles the arrival of DNNs for attention computing in images and video, and also discusses the attention mechanisms within DNNs (attention modules, transformers, grad-cam-based saliency maps, etc.). From Human Attention to Computational Attention 2nd Edition also explores the parallels between the brain structures and the DNN architectures to reveal how biomimetics can improve the model designs. The book is truly multi-disciplinary, collating work from psychology, neuroscience, engineering, and computer science.
