Second, the book reviews the impacts of pollution on people, ecosystems and economic ventures.Third, the book asserts that well-planned development projects adhering to environmental laws and with best available technologies, will reduce ecosystem pollution yet yield strong profit margins.
Delusions in Context
This open access book offers an exploration of delusions--unusual beliefs that can significantly disrupt people's lives. Experts from a range of disciplinary backgrounds, including lived experience, clinical psychiatry, philosophy, clinical psychology, and cognitive neuroscience, discuss how delusions emerge, why it is so difficult to give them up, what their effects are, how they are managed, and what we can do to reduce the stigma associated with them. Taken as a whole, the book proposes that there is continuity between delusions and everyday beliefs. It is essential reading for researchers working on delusions and mental health more generally, and will also appeal to anybody who wants to gain a better understanding of what happens when the way we experience and interpret the world is different from that of the people around us.
Deformations of Algebraic Schemes
This study has become increasingly important in algebraic geometry in every context where variational phenomena come into play, and in classification theory, e.g. the study of the local properties of moduli spaces.Today deformation theory is highly formalized and has ramified widely within mathematics. This self-contained account of deformation theory in classical algebraic geometry (over an algebraically closed field) brings together for the first time some results previously scattered in the literature, with proofs that are relatively little known, yet of everyday relevance to algebraic geometers. Based on Grothendieck's functorial approach it covers formal deformation theory, algebraization, isotriviality, Hilbert schemes, Quot schemes and flag Hilbert schemes. It includes applications to the construction and properties of Severi varieties of families of plane nodal curves, space curves, deformations of quotient singularities, Hilbert schemes of points, local Picard functors, etc. Many examples are provided. Most of the algebraic results needed are proved.
Deepfake detection = اكتشاف التزييف العميق
In the rapidly evolving era of artificial intelligence, addressing the escalating threats of deepfake technology becomes a necessity because of the increasing sophistication of AI algorithms in generating deceptive content, and since it threatens the integrity of information across diverse data. The main objective is to build a sophisticated AI-driven system to detect different types of deepfake in text, audio, and images. In English text deepfake detection, multiple pre-trained tokenizers have been used, but XLNET and BERT stand out with identifying objects outside the dataset with an accuracy of 0.9809 and both have been generalized & trained using LSTM. In Arabic text deepfake detection, Arabert has been trained using LSTM which led with an accuracy of 99.53% by generalizing the model. Both English and Arabic datasets have been generated to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of the models. Audio deepfake detection has been generalized too, using Random Forest with an accuracy of 98.259%.
Deepfake detection
The rise of large language models (LLMs) and the increasing sophistication of deepfake images have made detecting synthetic content a pressing challenge. Several approaches have been proposed to tackle this problem, including statistical analysis, and machine learning algorithms. In this project, A novel zero-shot approach is proposed that utilizes the power of LLMs to detect fake text. The pre-trained LLM is fine-tuned to enhance its ability to differentiate real and fake text. The approach uses the LLM to detect text by analyzing the log probabilities of the text. For detecting fake images, computer vision algorithms and neural networks are used to analyze facial features. The facial region is cropped and preprocessed and the neural network identifies patterns indicative of synthetic content.

Deep learning methods for converting speech to text = تقنيات التعلم العميق في تحويل الصوت إلى نص
Aims to design and develop a system capable of extracting audio content from films and audio recordings and converting it into text using deep learning techniques. This is done by analyzing audio patterns, extracting sounds and words from the video, and then converting them into written text. Deep learning, a branch of artificial intelligence, is used to accomplish this task. The study also includes comparing different deep learning techniques to determine their effectiveness in this context.
Deep learning approach for text summarization
Machine learning and deep learning, as we know, have started ruling over almost every field in the computing industry and so, has revolutionized the process of text summarization too. Automatic text summarization is an advancing realm of the natural language processing research in which concise textual summaries are generated from lengthy input documents. Extensive research has been carried out on how automatic summarization can be prosecuted through various extractive and abstractive techniques. In this paper, we address all the approaches to text summarization and present the modus operandi of an Architecture called Encoder Decoder, under the machine learning approach.

Decoherence and the Quantum-To-Classical Transition
This detailed but accessible text describes the concepts, formalism, interpretation, and experimental observation of decoherence and explains how decoherence is responsible for the emergence, from the realm of quantum mechanics, of the classical world of our experience.
Decision-Making in Engineering Design : Theory and Practice
We use our brains when we create plans and designs. The resulting plans and designs take physical form, however, what we thought about, the alternatives we tried, and the constraints we recognized while we were making these plans and designs are usually not written anywhere. Therefore, those who only get to see the results, e.g. the final text and drawings, do not learn what led the designer to reach such conclusions and as a consequence never understand the real design. This description of decision processes will provide the means for the development of new manufacturing systems and production activities in the future because it helps us gain a real understanding of the how the mind processes we go through when making decisions affect the decisions that we make.
Decentralisation and Privatisation in Education : The Role of the State
The book examines the overall interplay between privatisation, decentralisation and the role of the state. The authors draw upon recent studies in the areas of decentralisation, privatisation and the role of the state in education. By referring to Bourdieu’s call for critical policy analysts to engage in a ‘critical sociology’ of their own contexts of practice, and poststructuralist and postmodernist pedagogy, this collection of book chapters demonstrate how central discourses surrounding the debate of privatisation, decentralisation and the role of the state are formed in the contexts of dominant ideology, power, and culturally and historically derived perceptions and practices.
