Computational Thinking Education
This book is under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book offers a comprehensive guide, covering every important aspect of computational thinking education. It provides an in-depth discussion of computational thinking, including the notion of perceiving computational thinking practices as ways of mapping models from the abstraction of data and process structures to natural phenomena. Further, it explores how computational thinking education is implemented in different regions, and how computational thinking is being integrated into subject learning in K-12 education. In closing, it discusses computational thinking from the perspective of STEM education, the use of video games to teach computational thinking, and how computational thinking is helping to transform the quality of the workforce in the textile and apparel industry.

Machine Learning for Multimedia Content Analysis
Challenges in complexity and variability of multimedia data have led to revolutions in machine learning techniques. Multimedia data, such as digital images, audio streams and motion video programs, exhibit richer structures than simple, isolated data items. A number of pixels in a digital image collectively conveys certain visual content to viewers. A TV video program consists of both audio and image streams that unfold the underlying story. To recognize the visual content of a digital image, or to understand the underlying story of a video program, we may need to label sets of pixels or groups of image and audio frames jointly.
Machine Learning for Audio, Image and Video Analysis : Theory and Applications

L'astrofilo moderno = The modern amateur astronomer
In less than two decades, amateur astronomy has changed its face. The reason, of course, is technological progress. Cheap but high-quality telescopes, computer-controlled "go-to" mounts, autoguiders, CCD cameras, video cameras and (as always) computers and the Internet are just some of the elements that revolutionized 21st century astronomy. Not only have they made amateur astronomy more "friendly" and fun, but they have also greatly expanded the potential of the amateur astronomer. Martin Mobberley first tackles the basic issues and then analyzes in depth what tools are available on the market. From here he starts to review the revolutionary possibilities that open up for amateur astronomers, from imaging, to spectroscopy, to photometry, to the surveillance of Near-Earth objects - comets and asteroids that can come dangerously close to the Earth.

Cartoony story app = تطبيق قصة كارتونية
The translation of textual narratives into immersive visual representations poses a significant challenge in the field of artificial intelligence. Traditional cartoon generation techniques face formidable technical challenges and require substantial resources. Research efforts towards direct video synthesis from text have encountered obstacles in developing efficient techniques. In parallel, researchers propose an alternative approach involving the generation of dynamic sequences of images portraying children's story narratives. This approach includes applying various visual effects to highlight motion, interaction, and excitement in storytelling. By dynamically generating a sequence of images reflecting the narrative's progression and applying diverse visual effects, this alternative method offers a flexible and practical solution to cartoon generation challenges, providing an efficient and effective experience akin to video while retaining the magical appeal of visual storytelling. ...
