Et si au lieu de passer notre vie à nous torturer à coups de " comment mieux manger ", " comment mieux faire du sport ", " comment mieux travailler ", nous nous demandions plutôt QUAND le faire ? Notre bien-être ne serait-il pas avant tout lié à une question de timing ? C'est ce que nous démontre le docteur Michael Breus dans un guide totalement original, qui explore une nouvelle approche des rythmes circadiens. Grâce à un test drôle et efficace, Breus nous aide à évaluer notre chronotype et à déterminer si nous sommes plutôt lion – 20 % de l'humanité –, ours – 50 % de l'humanité –, loup – 20 % de l'humanité –, dauphin – 10 % de l'humanité. Une fois notre animal totem découvert, l'auteur nous apprend à réorganiser nos journées et nos nuits en fonction de notre biorythme idéal. Nourriture, sommeil, santé, travail, relations humaines, activités physiques, créativité... Breus fixe pour nous le meilleur moment pour effectuer chaque action de notre vie quotidienne. Pour être plus épanoui, l'important est de trouver le bon moment !

This book explores recent advancements in shape analysis, offering insights from experts in continuous-scale and discrete shape analysis, sparsity, and numerical computing. With the decreasing costs of high-resolution shape digitization, the challenge lies in analyzing vast amounts of data, especially for applications like human-computer interaction that require real-time processing. Addressing these challenges necessitates interdisciplinary approaches that integrate concepts from numerical computing, differential geometry, deformable shape modeling, sparse data representation, and machine learning. Many shape analysis tasks are modeled using partial differential equations, solvable through numerical computing techniques. Recent influences from differential geometry and deformable shape modeling are shaping new methods in this field. Additionally, sparse representation techniques aim to compress data, significantly reducing the volume to be processed. Machine learning also offers promising solutions. The Dagstuhl Seminar on New Perspectives in Shape Analysis, held in February 2014, aimed to tackle these challenges using cutting-edge geometric, algorithmic, and numerical tools, fostering collaboration among leading researchers to identify open problems and innovative solutions. This book will interest researchers in shape analysis and image and vision, appealing to both newcomers and seasoned experts eager to learn about the la

O knihe Objavte svoj chronotyp a ten najvhodnejší čas, kedy obedovať, ísť spať, požiadať o zvýšenie platu, mať sex, napísať knihu, užívať lieky či robiť iné veci. Nie je dôležité iba to, „čo“ a „ako“ robíme, ale aj „kedy“. Nie všetci sa totiž najlepšie sústredíme, spíme, najľahšie vstávame či máme najviac fyzických síl v rovnakom čase. Prečo je to tak? Množstvo bežných vecí, ktoré denne vykonávame, sa totiž riadi podľa našich biologických hodín, čiže podľa prirodzených procesov, ktoré sa v našom tele počas dvadsaťštyrihodinového cyklu dejú. Tieto biorytmy nedokážeme ovplyvniť, preto nedokážeme najlepšie pracovať vtedy, keď to práve potrebujeme, alebo sa zabávať, keď to najviac chceme. V knihe sa dozviete, prečo je dôležité tieto procesy poznať a ako z nich vyťažiť čo najviac pre svoje zdravie a celkovú pohodu. Autor rozdeľuje ľudí do štyroch skupín (chronotypov) podľa toho, aký typ prirodzeného vnútorného načasovania majú a odporúča im, kedy majú čo robiť.
Wann sollte ich am besten aufstehen? Wann frage ich meinen Chef nach der Gehaltserhöhung? Wann lohnt es sich, Sport zu machen? Neueste Forschungen zeigen, dass es den richtigen Zeitpunkt für uns alle gibt, um zum Beispiel einen Cocktail zu trinken oder eine Grippeimpfung zu bekommen. Dieser richtige Zeitpunkt kann aber von Person zu Person vollkommen verschieden sein. Zum Glück ist das Kennenlernen des eigenen »Inneren Uhrwerks« und die Anwendung dieses Wissens im Hinblick auf Gesundheit, Fitness und Produktivität aber ganz einfach: Der renommierte Schlafwissenschaftler Dr. Michael Breus nimmt uns mit auf eine aufregende Reise durch unseren Tag und zeigt, wie viel Spaß darin stecken kann, endlich die Fragen nach dem »wie« und dem »was« in unserem Leben in ein »wann« zu verwandeln.Angefüllt mit faszinierenden Fakten, persönlichen Erfolgsgeschichten, kurzweiligen Tests und leicht umzusetzenden Orientierungshilfen zeigt uns dieses Buch nicht nur, wie wir unsere eigenen Persönlichkeiten besser verstehen können, sondern auch die der Menschen um uns herum. Wir finden heraus, welcher Chronotyp uns entspricht – und können so unseren Tag optimal einteilen, unsere Bedürfnisse viel besser ausleben und letztlich auch das Maximum an Produktivität und Gesundheit aus unserem Tag herausholen. Denn auf den richtigen Zeitpunkt kommt es an!
Innovations for shape analysis

The concept of 'shape' is at the heart of image processing and computer vision, yet researchers still have some way to go to replicate the human brain's ability to extrapolate meaning from the most basic of outlines. This volume reflects the advances of the last decade, which have also opened up tough new challenges in image processing. Today's applications require flexible models as well as efficient, mathematically justified algorithms that allow data processing within an acceptable timeframe. Examining important topics in continuous-scale and discrete modeling, as well as in modern algorithms, the book is the product of a key seminar focused on innovations in the field. It is a thorough introduction to the latest technology, especially given the tutorial style of a number of chapters. It also succeeds in identifying promising avenues for future research. The topics covered include mathematical morphology, skeletonization, statistical shape modeling, continuous-scale shape models such as partial differential equations and the theory of discrete shape descriptors. Some authors highlight new areas of enquiry such as partite skeletons, multi-component shapes, deformable shape models, and the use of distance fields. Combining the latest theoretical analysis with cutting-edge applications, this book will attract both academics and engineers.
