Right from his earliest days to the end of his life, Dahl was intrigued by what doctors do, and why they do it. During his lifetime, he and his family suffered some terrible medical tragedies: Dahl nearly died when his fighter plane went down in World War II; his son had severe brain injury in an accident; and his daughter died of measles infection of the brain. But he also had some medical triumphs: he dragged himself back to health after the plane crash, despite a skull fracture, back injuries, and blindness; he was responsible for inventing a medical device (the Wade-Dahl-Till valve) to treat his son's hydrocephalus (water on the brain), and he taught his first wife Patricia to talk again after a devastating stroke. His medical interactions clearly influenced some of his writing ? for example the explosive potions in George?s Marvellous Medicine. And sometimes his writing impacted on events in his life ? for example the research on neuroanatomy he did for his short story William and Mary later helped him design the valve for treating hydrocephalus.In this unique book, Professor Tom Solomon, who looked after Dahl towards the end of his life, examines Dahl?s fascination with medicine. Taking examples from Dahl?s life, and illustrated with excerpts from his writing, the book uses Dahl?s medical interactions as a starting point to explore some extraordinary areas of medical science. Solomon is an award-winning science communicator, and he effortlessly explains the medical concepts underpinning the stories, in language that everyone can understand. The book is also peppered with anecdotes from Dahl?s late night hospital discussions with Solomon, which give new insights into this remarkable man?s thinking as his life came to an end. 606 $aArt$xStudy and teaching$xActivity programs 606 $aSchool field trips$zGreat Britain 606 $aSchool field trips 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aArt$xStudy and teaching$xActivity programs. 615 0$aSchool field trips 615 0$aSchool field trips. 676 $a372.5044 700 $aSolomon$b Tom$0923592 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466111403321 996 $aRoald Dahl's marvellous medicine$92072500 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03520nam 22006613 450 001 996464542803316 005 20220920222030.0 010 $a3-030-87664-0 035 $a(CKB)5670000000200409 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6878098 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6878098 035 $a(OCoLC)1295276366 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/78253 035 $a(PPN)269154841 035 $a(EXLCZ)995670000000200409 100 $a20220321d2022 fy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aHandbook of digital face manipulation and detection $efrom DeepFakes to morphing attacks /$feditors, Christian Rathgeb [et al.] 210 $aCham$cSpringer Nature$d2022 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing AG,$d2022. 210 4$d©2022. 215 $a1 online resource (481 pages) $cillustrations (chiefly color) 225 1 $aAdvances in computer vision and pattern recognition 311 $a3-030-87663-2 320 $aIncludes index. 327 $aPart I - Introduction: 1.

Attacking Face Recognition Systems with DeepFakes 330 $aThis open access book provides the first comprehensive collection of studies dealing with the hot topic of digital face manipulation such as DeepFakes, Face Morphing, or Reenactment. It combines the research fields of biometrics and media forensics including contributions from academia and industry. Appealing to a broad readership, introductory chapters provide a comprehensive overview of the topic, which address readers wishing to gain a brief overview of the state-of-the-art. Subsequent chapters, which delve deeper into various research challenges, are oriented towards advanced readers. Moreover, the book provides a good starting point for young researchers as well as a reference guide pointing at further literature. Hence, the primary readership is academic institutions and industry currently involved in digital face manipulation and detection. The book could easily be used as a recommended text for courses in image processing, machine learning, media forensics, biometrics, and the general security area. 410 0$aAdvances in computer vision and pattern recognition 606 $aBiometric identification 606 $aDeepfakes 606 $aImage processing$xDigital techniques 606 $aMorphing (Computer animation) 610 $aDeepFakes 610 $aFace Manipulation Detection 610 $aMedia Forensic 610 $aBiometric Recognition 610 $aImage Processing and Pattern Recognition 610 $aOpen Access 615 0$aBiometric identification. 615 0$aDeepfakes. 615 0$aImage processing$xDigital techniques. 615 0$aMorphing (Computer animation). 700 $aRathgeb$b Christian$4edt$01059957 701 $aRathgeb$b Christian$01059957 701 $aTolosana$b Ruben$01214295 701 $aVera-Rodriguez$b Ruben$01214296 701 $aBusch$b Christoph$01214297 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996464542803316 996 $aHandbook of Digital Face Manipulation and Detection$92804061 997 $aUNISA LEADER 01518nam0 22003611i 450 001 UON00094857 005 20231205102527.870 010 $a88-8147-143-4 100 $a20020107d1998 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aˆL'‰Oceano$fPitea di Massalia$gintroduzione, testo, traduzione e commento a cura di Serena Bianchetti 210 $aRoma$aPisa$cIstituti Editoriali e Poligrafici Internazionali$d1998 215 $a226 p.$d26 cm 312 $ain italiano$9UON00376579 410 1$1001UON00087576$12001 $aBiblioteca di studi antichi$fDiretta da Graziano Arrighetti ed Emilio Gabba$v82 500 0$3UON00376579$aPery okeanou$937173 606 $aGeografia greca$3UONC028533$2FI 620 $aIT$dRoma$3UONL000004 620 $aIT$dPisa$3UONL000055 676 $a913$cGeografia e viaggi del mondo antico$v21 686 $aR$cLETTERATURA GRECA$2A 700 0$aPYTHEAS : Massiliensis$3UONV061219$0441314 702 1$aBIANCHETTI$bSerena$3UONV056954 712 $aIstituti Editoriali e poligrafici Internazionali$3UONV250675$4650 790 0$aPITEA : di Massalia$zPYTHEAS : Massiliensis$3UONV061220 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20250404$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00094857 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI T 1 PYTH 0050 $eSI MC 23022 7 996 $aPery okeanou$937173 997 $aUNIOR
