Transnational Legal Activism in Global Value Chains
This open access book documents and analyses the various interventions – legal, political, and even artistic – that followed the Ali Enterprises factory fire in Karachi, Pakistan, in 2012. It illuminates the different substantive and procedural aspects of the legal proceedings and negotiations between the various local and transnational actors implicated in the Ali Enterprises fire, as well as the legal and policy reforms sparked by the incident. This endeavour serves to embed these legal cases and reform efforts in the larger context of human and labour rights protection and global value chain governance. It also offers a concrete case study relevant for ongoing debates around the role of transnational approaches in making human rights litigation, advocacy, and law reform more effective. In this regard, the book interrogates and critically reflects on such legal campaigns and local and transnational reform work with a view to future transformative legal and social activism.
The Eighteenth International Conference on Management Science and Engineering Management
The proceedings of the Eighteenth ICMSEM cover a wide range of areas including hot management issues in Engineering Science. It provides newest and frontier ideas and research achievements in the area of Management Science and Engineering Management to researchers and practitioners. The work contains both theoretical and practical studies of Management Science in the Computing Methodology, showing the advanced management concepts, computing technologies for decision making problems with large, uncertain and unstructured data. Research in this proceeding will show the new changes and challenges in the decision-making procedure as we have entered the big data era. Theoretical studies of this proceedings will present the new technologies of analysis, capture, search, sharing, storage, transfer, visualization, and privacy violations, as well as advances in integration of optimization, statistics and data mining. This proceeding also contains practical studies in the real decision-making scenarios when facing large, uncertain or unstructured data. The readers who are interested in related fields of can benefit from the proceedings for the new ideas and research direction.
Statistics for Data Science and Policy Analysis
This book brings together the best contributions of the Applied Statistics and Policy Analysis Conference 2019. Written by leading international experts in the field of statistics, data science and policy evaluation. This book explores the theme of effective policy methods through the use of big data, accurate estimates and modern computing tools and statistical modelling.
Multivariate, Multilinear and Mixed Linear Models
This book presents the latest findings on statistical inference in multivariate, multilinear and mixed linear models, providing a holistic presentation of the subject. It contains pioneering and carefully selected review contributions by experts in the field and guides the reader through topics related to estimation and testing of multivariate and mixed linear model parameters. Starting with the theory of multivariate distributions, covering identification and testing of covariance structures and means under various multivariate models, it goes on to discuss estimation in mixed linear models and their transformations. The results presented originate from the work of the research group Multivariate and Mixed Linear Models and their meetings held at the Mathematical Research and Conference Center in Będlewo, Poland, over the last 10 years. Featuring an extensive bibliography of related publications, the book is intended for PhD students and researchers in modern statistical science who are interested in multivariate and mixed linear models.
Applied Modeling Techniques and Data Analysis 1
BIG DATA, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND DATA ANALYSIS SET Coordinated by Jacques Janssen Data analysis is a scientific field that continues to grow enormously, most notably over the last few decades, following rapid growth within the tech industry, as well as the wide applicability of computational techniques alongside new advances in analytic tools. Modeling enables data analysts to identify relationships, make predictions, and to understand, interpret and visualize the extracted information more strategically. This book includes the most recent advances on this topic, meeting increasing demand from wide circles of the scientific community. Applied Modeling Techniques and Data Analysis 1 is a collective work by a number of leading scientists, analysts, engineers, mathematicians and statisticians, working on the front end of data analysis and modeling applications. The chapters cover a cross section of current concerns and research interests in the above scientific areas. The collected material is divided into appropriate sections to provide the reader with both theoretical and applied information on data analysis methods, models and techniques, along with appropriate applications.
Proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on Management Science and Engineering Management
This book presents the proceedings of the Tenth International Conference on Management Science and Engineering Management (ICMSEM2016) held from August 30 to September 02, 2016 at Baku, Azerbaijan and organized by the International Society of Management Science and Engineering Management, Sichuan University (Chengdu, China) and Ministry of Education of Azerbaijan. The aim of conference was to foster international research collaborations in management science and engineering management as well as to provide a forum to present current research findings. The presented papers were selected and reviewed by the Program Committee, made up of respected experts in the area of management science and engineering management from around the globe. The contributions focus on identifying management science problems in engineering, innovatively using management theory and methods to solve engineering problems effectively and establishing novel management theories and methods to address new engineering management issues.
Introduction to Probability and Statistics
Introduction to Probability and Statistics expertly sheds light on the fundamental reasoning, methods and applications of statistics. From simple, clear explanations, students learn not only how to reason statistically, but also how to correctly interpret statistical results. The authors emphasize how to: Apply statistical procedures, uncover the meaning of statistical research in terms of their practical applications, evaluate the validity of assumptions behind statistical tests, determine what to do when those assumptions have been violated, and meaningfully describe real data sets.
