Geographic information extraction from texts
A large volume of unstructured texts, containing valuable geographic information, is available online. This information â provided implicitly or explicitly â is useful not only for scientific studies (e.g., spatial humanities) but also for many practical applications (e.g., geographic information retrieval). Although large progress has been achieved in geographic information extraction from texts, there are still unsolved challenges and issues, ranging from methods, systems, and data, to applications and privacy. Therefore, this workshop will provide a timely opportunity to discuss the recent advances, new ideas, and concepts but also identify research gaps in geographic information extraction
Theoretical Approaches in Non-Linear Dynamical Systems
From Preface: The 15th International Conference âDynamical Systems - Theory and Applicationsâ (DSTA 2019, 2-5 December, 2019, Lodz, Poland) gathered a numerous group of outstanding scientists and engineers who deal with widely understood problems of theoretical and applied dynamics. Organization of the conference would not have been possible without great effort of the staff of the Department of Automation, Biomechanics and Mechatronics of the Lodz University of Technology. The patronage over the conference has been taken by the Committee of Mechanics of the Polish Academy of Sciences and Ministry of Science and Higher Education of Poland. It is a great pleasure that our event was attended by over 180 researchers from 35 countries all over the world, who decided to share the results of their research and experience in different fields related to dynamical systems. This year, the DSTA Conference Proceedings were split into two volumes entitled âTheoretical Approaches in Non-Linear Dynamical Systemsâ and âApplicable Solutions in Non-Linear Dynamical Systemsâ. In addition, DSTA 2019 resulted in three volumes of Springer Proceedings in Mathematics and Statistics entitled âControl and Stability of Dynamical Systemsâ, âMathematical and Numerical Approaches in Dynamical Systemsâ and âDynamical Systems in Mechatronics and Life Sciencesâ. Also, many outstanding papers will be recommended to special issues of renowned scientific journals.Cover design: KaĆșmierczak, MarekTechnical editor: KaĆșmierczak, Mare
The Palgrave Handbook of Digital Russia Studies
This open access handbook presents a multidisciplinary and multifaceted perspective on how the âdigitalâ is simultaneously changing Russia and the research methods scholars use to study Russia. It provides a critical update on how Russian society, politics, economy, and culture are reconfigured in the context of ubiquitous connectivity and accounts for the political and societal responses to digitalization. In addition, it answers practical and methodological questions in handling Russian data and a wide array of digital methods. The volume makes a timely intervention in our understanding of the changing field of Russian Studies and is an essential guide for scholars, advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying Russia today
