It analyzes primary sources in Syriac, Mandaic, and Arabic to clarify the early history of Mandaeism. This religion, along with several other, shorter-lived new faiths, such as Kentaeism, began in a period of state-sponsored persecution of Babylonian paganism. The Mandaeans would survive to become one of many groups known as Ṣābians by their Muslim neighbors. Rather than seeking to elucidate the history of Mandaeism in terms of other religions to which it can be related, this study approaches the religion through the history of its social contexts.Leiden Studies in Islam and Society06.MandaeansHistoryMandaeansReligionMandaeansHistory.MandaeansReligion.299/.9Van Bladel Kevin Thomas1007070NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910163088603321From Sasanian Mandaeans to Ṣābians of the marshes2890296UNINA06252nam 22007335 450 99656587230331620231031144352.03-031-47546-110.1007/978-3-031-47546-7(MiAaPQ)EBC30853314(Au-PeEL)EBL30853314(DE-He213)978-3-031-47546-7(EXLCZ)992865280410004120231031d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAIxIA 2023 – Advances in Artificial Intelligence[electronic resource] XXIInd International Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence, AIxIA 2023, Rome, Italy, November 6–9, 2023, Proceedings /edited by Roberto Basili, Domenico Lembo, Carla Limongelli, Andrea Orlandini1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (499 pages)Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence,2945-9141 ;14318Print version: Basili, Roberto AIxIA 2023 - Advances in Artificial Intelligence Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023 9783031475450 Argumentation and Logic Programming -- ABALearn: An automated logic-based learning system for ABA frameworks -- Deriving Dependency Graphs from Abstract Argumentation Frameworks -- ReConf: An Automatic Context-based Software Reconfiguration Tool for Autonomous Vehicles using Answer-Set Programming -- Mining contrast sequential patterns with ASP -- Ontologies -- An ontological modelling of reason-based preferences -- A Defeasible Description Logic for Abduction -- Ontology-based Data Management in Healthcare: The Case of the Italian Arthroplasty Registry -- Planning -- A Structure-Sensitive Translation from Hybrid to Numeric Planning -- Intrinsically Motivated High-Level Planning for Agent Exploration -- Natural Language Processing -- Mining Argument Components in Essays at Different Levels -- Unraveling ChatGPT: A Critical Analysis of AI-Generated Goal-Oriented Dialogues and Annotations -- Scaling Large Language Models to the Extreme: Neural Semantic Processing of Multiple Tasks in Italian -- Named Entity Recognition and Linking for Entity Extraction from Italian Civil Judgements -- Machine Learning -- CENTAURO: an Explainable AI Approach for Customer Loyalty Prediction in Retail Sector -- Toward Novel Optimizers: A Moreau-Yosida View of Gradient-based Learning -- Mastering the Card Game of Jaipur through Zero-knowledge Self-Play Reinforcement Learning and Action Masks -- Uncovering Bias in the Face Processing Pipeline: An Analysis of Popular and State-of-the-Art Algorithms Across Demographic Groups -- A multi-label classification study for the prediction of long-covid syndrome -- PAUL-2: An Upgraded Transformer-Based Redesign of the Algorithmic Composer PAUL -- Robotics and Perception -- Understanding the Effect of Deep Ensembles in LiDAR-based Place Recognition -- Enanching LiDAR performance: Robust De-skewing Exclusively Relying o n Range Measurements -- Can Existing 3D Monocular Object Detection Methods Work in Roadside Contexts?
