The significance of the existence of the system is to realize its function and maintain its stability, that is, the reliability and stability of the reliability. Reliability is affected by factors, component properties and system structure, and its changes are complex. In order to solve this problem, the authors proposed the space fault tree theory in 2012. This book is the first time that the fundamental part of the theory has been presented internationally. The authors of the book are Pro. Tiejun Cui and Dr. Shasha Li. Tiejun CUI was born in Shenyang, Liaoning, China in 1983. He received a Ph.D. degree in safety technology and engineering from Liaoning Technical University, China in 2015, and received two postdoctoral degrees. His research interests include safety system engineering, system reliability and system fault evolution processes. He is the author of several books and author and co-author of several publications in international journals, including papers that are indexed by SCI and EI. Shasha LI was born in Panjin, Liaoning, China, in 1988. She received a Ph.D. degree in safety management engineering from Liaoning Technical University, China in 2018. Her research interests include safety management engineering and system reliability. She is the author and co-author of several publications in International journals and Chinese journals and books, including papers that are indexed by SCI and EI.

Due to the fast growth of the Web and the difficulties in finding desired information, efficient and effective information retrieval systems have become more important than ever, and the search engine has become an essential tool for many people. The ranker, a central component in every search engine, is responsible for the matching between processed queries and indexed documents. Because of its central role, great attention has been paid to the research and development of ranking technologies. In addition, ranking is also pivotal for many other information retrieval applications, such as collaborative filtering, definition ranking, question answering, multimedia retrieval, text summarization, and online advertisement. Leveraging machine learning technologies in the ranking process has led to innovative and more effective ranking models, and eventually to a completely new research area called learning to rank . Liu first gives a comprehensive review of the major approaches to learning to rank. For each approach he presents the basic framework, with example algorithms, and he discusses its advantages and disadvantages. He continues with some recent advances in learning to rank that cannot be simply categorized into the three major approaches - these include relational ranking, query-dependent ranking, transfer ranking, and semisupervised ranking. His presentation is completed by several examples that apply these technologies to solve real information retrieval problems, and by theoretical discussions on guarantees for ranking performance. This book is written for researchers and graduate students in both information retrieval and machine learning. They will find here the only comprehensive description of the state of the art in a field that has driven the recent advances in search engine development.

Metamaterials: Theory, Design and Applications focuses on the most recent research activity in metamaterials, taking a reader beyond previously covered areas like left-handed materials (LHM) and negative index materials (LIM). Some new developments covered in the book include a rapid design method for inhomogeneous metamaterials, microwave and RF applications of metamaterials and dynamic metamaterial systems. Editors Tie Jun Cui, David R. Smith and Ruopeng Liu bring together the leading international minds focused on metamaterials to provide an all-encompassing look at a rapidly-developing field. This book stands alone as a must-read for any engineer or researcher working with metamaterials. Drawing on their years of experience in the field, editors Tie Jun Cui, David R. Smith and Ruopeng Liu present a breadth of research in metamaterials, covering areas like: Optical transformation theory, including invisible cloaks, concentrators, beam splitters and antennas. Photonic metamaterials and the magnetic Plasmon effect. Experimental verification techniques for invisible cloaks.
