The term Silk Road has been well-known for many years, but in fact this ancient trade route was not a singular path from East to West. Rather, it was a network of multiple ways that peoples, goods, and cultures spread across the Asian continent and beyond. This book focuses on the Steppe Silk Road, starting with the Hulunbuir Grasslands in today’s Steppe, which stretches through several countries from the Danube to the Ural River.The result of the author’s extensive travels through China, Mongolia, Russia, Kazakhstan, and more, this travelogue presents modern-day experiences together with ancient history. It explores how civilizations of the steppe grasslands evolved over time from a Chinese perspective, along with personal anecdotes and scenic highlights from various trips over the past 47 years. The book provides a window into less-visited regions suitable for intrepid explorers and armchair travelers alike.

ONNX(Open Neural Network Exchange，開放神經網絡交換)是一種開放格式，用於存儲深度神經網絡模型。ONNX 由微軟和Facebook 於2017 年共同推出，旨在促進不同深度學習框架之間的模型交換和互操作性。ONNX 定義了一組與環境和平臺無關的標準格式，使得AI 模型可以在不同的框架和環境下交互使用。經過短短幾年的發展，ONNX 已經成為表示深度學習模型的實際標準。它還支持傳統非神經網絡機器學習模型。ONNX 有望成為整個AI 模型交換的標準。全書包括6 章，分別為ONNX 安裝與使用、ONNX 運行時與應用開發技術、ONNX 各種功能與性能分析、ONNX 數據與操作數優化、ONNX 模型性能與應用、ONNX 創新開發案例分析。本書適合從事AI 算法、軟件、硬件開發的工程師閱讀，也可供科研人員、高校師生、技術管理人員參考使用。

The widely acclaimed films of Wong Kar-wai are characterized by their sumptuous yet complex visual and sonic style. Bettinson argues that Wong’s films—from Days of Being Wild and Chungking Express to In the Mood for Love and The Grandmaster—are permeated by an aesthetic of sensuousness and “disturbance” achieved through techniques such as narrative disruptions, jarring cuts, the blocking of facial access, and other complex strategies. The effect is to jolt the viewer out of complete aesthetic absorption. This tenth-anniversary edition of The Sensuous Cinema of Wong Kar-wai includes a substantial new afterword bringing the story of Wong’s career up to date (including reflections on the mainland Chinese drama Blossoms Shanghai). Bettinson revisits and extends the arguments of the first edition, surveys the recent key debates on Wong’s filmmaking, and introduces fresh lines of critical investigation.

近年來，人工智能在自然語言處理、商務智能、機器人和醫療診斷等眾多領域取得了突破性進展，其中生成式對抗網絡（generative adversarial network , GAN）開創性地使用對抗訓練機制對兩個神經網絡進行訓練，是近年來複雜分布上無監督學習最具前景的方法之一。 本項目以人工智能為出發點，從模型、算法和應用系統等角度較好地研究了GAN的基礎理論和方法，並結合遷移學習、強化學習和大數據技術設計了GAN的一些可行應用案例，闡述了如何通過GAN來實現人工智能，為廣大讀者在人工智能領域的理論學習和專業實踐提供指南。

During the nineteenth century, the transpacific world underwent profound transformation, due to the transition from sail to steam navigation that was accompanied by a concomitant reconfiguration of power. This book explores the ways in which diverse Mexican, British, Chinese, and Japanese interests participated, particularly during Porfirio Díaz’s presidency at the peak of Mexico’s participation in the steam network: from its 1860s outset through a time of many revolutionary changes ending with the World War, the Mexican Revolution, the opening of the Panama Canal, and the introduction of a new maritime technology based on vessels run by oil. These transoceanic exchanges, generated within these new geographies of power, contributed not only to the formation of a transpacific region but also to refashioning the Mexican national imaginary. With transnationalism, global and migration studies as its main framework, this study draws upon a dazzling array of primary sources to center Mexico’

From the New York Times bestselling author of Internment comes a timely and gripping social-suspense novel about book banning, activism, and standing up for what you believe. After her dad abruptly abandons her family and her mom moves them a million miles from their Chicago home, Noor Khan is forced to start the last quarter of her senior year at a new school, away from everything and everyone she knows and loves. Reeling from being uprooted and deserted, Noor is certain the key to survival is to keep her head down and make it to graduation. But things aren't so simple. At school, Noor discovers hundreds of books have been labeled "obscene" or "pornographic" and are being removed from the library in accordance with a new school board policy. Even worse, virtually all the banned books are by queer and BIPOC authors. Noor can't sit back and do nothing, because that goes against everything she believes in, but challenging the status quo just might put a target on her back. Can she effect
