Future predictions are always a topic of interest. Precise estimates are crucial in many activities as forecasting errors can lead to significant financial loss. The sequential analysis of data and information gathered from past to present is called time series analysis. This book covers the recent advancements in time series forecasting.

Mathematical models are used to convert real-life problems using mathematical concepts and language. These models are governed by differential equations whose solutions make it easy to understand the real-life problems. The applications can be applied to engineering and science disciplines.

The science and study of Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) has intrigued researchers over the last few decades. This book addresses various FGM aspects and provides a relevant quality and comprehensive data source.

A monograph on Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos, focusing on her extraordinary work with textiles Joana Vasconcelos has become one the most respected and sought-after artists of the 21st century. Her forte is using non-traditional materials, and particularly textiles, to create monumental and expansive works that intrigue, inspire and entertain the viewer. She first rose to acclaim when her chandelier decorated with tampons was exhibited at the Venice Biennale in 2005, and has since had solo exhibitions at Versailles and Manchester Art Gallery. She aims to re-present and subvert every-day objects, often manipulating scale and form, and is specially interested in the role of women and objects associated with them. This book focuses on her extraordinary works in textiles, and highlights in particular her 'Valkyries' series, vibrant patchwork extravaganzas that weave together knitting and crochet with silk, velvets, recycled clothes and industrially produced textiles embellished with Portuguese tassels, crystals and beads. Essays by Enrique Juncosa and Crispin Sartwell offer thoughtful and in-depth overviews of her work and its development over the past fourteen years.

Van Gogh’s Finale is a definitive account of the final days of the artist’s life and the incredible story of what followed.

This is the first book-length exploration of the clothes worn in early modern Rome and provides novel insights into the city of Rome during one of its most fascinating periods. It also challenges the notion - well-established in dress historical research on the early modern period - that one was supposed to dress solely according to one's social station; as Camilla Annerfeldt explores in great depth, this notion does not always seem to have been applicable to early modern Rome because of its very constitution. Using a range of primary sources from the Roman archives as well as texts of early modern writers, Clothing and Identity in Early Modern Rome presents a vivid account of the history of an early modern society, which will be helpful to historians of fashion, society, politics, material culture, and art, as well as everyone interested in the period when Rome was one of the dominant centres of Europe - culturally, socially, and politically.

This book describes the use of different Mathematical Modeling and Soft Computing techniques used in Epidemiology for experiential research in projects such as how infectious diseases progress to show the likely outcome of an epidemic, and to contribute to public health interventions.
