The volume reports latest research on a wide range of topics spanning theory, system, applications and case studies in the fields of computing and communication technologies. Topics covered are robotics, computational intelligence encompassing fuzzy logic, neural networks, GA and evolutionary computing, applications, knowledge representation, data encryption, distributed computing, data analytics and visualization, knowledge representation, wireless sensor networks, MEM sensor design, analog circuit, statistical machine translation, cellular automata and antenna design. The volume has 31 chapters, including an invited paper on swarm robotics, grouped into three parts, viz., Advanced Computing, Communication Technologies, and Micro Electronics and Antenna Design. The volume is directed to researchers and practitioners aspiring to solve practical issues, particularly applications of the theories of computational intelligence, using recent advances in computing and communication technologies.Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing,2194-5365 ;562Computational intelligenceArtificial intelligenceTelecommunicationComputational IntelligenceArtificial IntelligenceCommunications Engineering, NetworksComputational intelligence.Artificial intelligence.Telecommunication.Computational Intelligence.Artificial Intelligence.Communications Engineering, Networks.004Choudhary Ramesh Kedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMandal Jyotsna Kumaredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBhattacharyya Dhananjayedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299567503321Advanced Computing and Communication Technologies2495603UNINA03559nam 22005895 450 991086319200332120251113184743.03-030-53925-310.1007/978-3-030-53925-2(CKB)4100000011493497(MiAaPQ)EBC6369404(DE-He213)978-3-030-53925-2(MiAaPQ)EBC6368874(MiAaPQ)EBC29093065(EXLCZ)99410000001149349720201006d2020 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Evolution of Same-Sex Attraction /by Menelaos Apostolou1st ed. 2020.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2020.1 online resource3-030-53924-5 Includes bibliographical references and index.Chapter 1: What is to be explained? -- Chapter 2: The genetic basis of same-sex attraction -- Chapter 3: Environmental factors affecting same-sex attraction -- Chapter 4: Evolutionary theories on same-sex attraction -- Chapter 5: Same-sex attraction in human history: Classical Greece, Imperial Rome and Christian Europe -- Chapter 6: Same-sex attraction in human history: Central and South America, Islamic world, and Asia -- Chapter 7: Assessing the evidence from the historical record -- Chapter 8: The Weak Selection Pressures Hypothesis -- Chapter 9: The weak selection pressures hypothesis: Regulation of mating, male-male competition and social consequences -- Chapter 10: The weak selection pressures hypothesis: Male-tolerance, forced sex and desire to have children -- Chapter 11: The male choice hypothesis -- Chapter 12: Assessing the male choice hypothesis -- Chapter 13: Positive selection on male homosexuality -- Chapter 14: The evolution of same-sex attraction in men and women.This book provides a comprehensive analysis of the evolutionary origins of same-sex attraction, evaluating multiple existing evolutionary theories. It combines empirical findings with theoretical arguments in order to review evidence on the prevalence rates of same-sex attraction and determine its genetic and environmental basis. Among the topics addressed: Attitudes towards same-sex attraction across human history Assessing the weak selection pressures hypothesis of attraction Assessing the male choice hypothesis of attraction Evolution of same-sex attraction in men versus women The Evolution of Same-Sex Attraction will be of interest to academics and students of evolutionary and psychological sciences, filling a gap in literature on the origins of specifically same-sex attraction. .EthnologySex (Psychology)PersonalityDifference (Psychology)Sociocultural AnthropologyPsychology of Gender and SexualityPersonality and Differential PsychologyEthnology.Sex (Psychology).Personality.Difference (Psychology).Sociocultural Anthropology.Psychology of Gender and Sexuality.Personality and Differential Psychology.306.766Apostolou Menelaos990123MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910863192003321The evolution of same-sex attraction2850947UNINA
