InTraders 2019: Academic studies in social, human and administrative sciences
The present study is an analysis of the connections established between the intercultural phenomenon and trade. Both intercultural contacts and commerce appeared and developed due to humans’ mobility and their basis was exchange (either spiritual or material). Since the dawn of history people travelled a lot and exchanged knowledge and goods (for instance, silk was brought to Europe by two Byzantine monks from China, in 550 C.E.), so, travel generated interculturality and trade. Intercultural contacts can be positive (trade, for example) or negative (wars). One can say that interculturality is a trait of the human species. Many innovations in different fields spread due to intercultural ex...
Handbook of Research on Advanced Practical Approaches to Deepfake Detection and Applications
In recent years, falsification and digital modification of video clips, images, as well as textual contents have become widespread and numerous, especially when deepfake technologies are adopted in many sources. Due to adopted deepfake techniques, a lot of content currently cannot be recognized from its original sources. As a result, the field of study previously devoted to general multimedia forensics has been revived. The Handbook of Research on Advanced Practical Approaches to Deepfake Detection and Applications discusses the recent techniques and applications of illustration, generation, and detection of deepfake content in multimedia. It introduces the techniques and gives an overview o...
