B. Brodey and Todd Ramón Ochoa) This dissertation is a critical analysis and annotated translation, from Spanish into English, of the book Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe, by the Cuban anthropologist, artist, and writer Lydia Cabrera (1899-1991). Cabrera’s text is a hybrid ethnographic book of religion, slave narratives (oral history), and folklore (songs, poetry) that she devoted to a group of Afro-Cubans known as “los Congos de Cuba,” descendants of the Africans who were brought to the Caribbean island of Cuba during the trans-Atlantic Ocean African slave trade from the former Kongo Kingdom, which occupied the present-day southwestern part of Congo-Kinshasa, Congo-Brazzaville, Cabinda, and northern Angola. The Kongo Kingdom had formal contact with Christianity through the Kingdom of Portugal as early as the 1490s.

  • The Classified Encyclopedia of Chess Variants
    THE CLASSIFIED ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CHESS VARIANTS I once read a story about the discovery of a strange tribe somewhere in the Amazon basin. An eminent anthropologist recalls that there was some evidence that a space ship from Mars had landed in the area a millenium or two earlier. ‘Good heavens,’ exclaims the narrator, are you suggesting that this tribe are the descendants of Martians?’ ‘Certainly not,’ snaps the learned man, ‘they are the original Earth-people — it is we who are the Martians.’ Reflect that chess is but an imperfect variant of a game that was itself a variant of a germinal game whose origins lie somewhere in the darkness of time.

  • King Leopold Ii‟S Exploitation of the Congo from 1885 to 1908 and Its Consequences
    KING LEOPOLD II‟S EXPLOITATION OF THE CONGO FROM 1885 TO 1908 AND ITS CONSEQUENCES by STEVEN P. JOHNSON A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Honors in the Major Program in History in the College of Arts and Humanities and in The Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Summer Term 2014 Thesis Chair: Dr. Ezekiel Walker ABSTRACT This thesis argues that King Leopold II, in his exploitation of the Congo, dealt the Congo a future of political, ethnic, and economic destabilization. At one time consisting of unified and advanced kingdoms, the Congo turned to one completely beleaguered by poverty and political oppression. Leopold acquired the Congo through unethical means and thus took the people‟s chances away at self-rule. He provided for no education or vocational training, which would stunt future Congolese leaders from making sound economic and political policies. Leopold also exploited the Congo with the help of concession companies, both of which used forced labor to extract valuable resources. Millions of Congolese died and the Congo itself became indebted through Belgian loans that were given with no assurance they could ever truly be paid back due to the crippled economy of the Congo. With the Congo now in crippling debt, the current president, Joseph Kabila, has little incentive to invest in reforms or public infrastructure, which stunts economic growth.1 For over a century the Congo has been ruled by exploitative and authoritarian regimes due to Leopold‟s initial acquisition. The colonization from Leopold lasted from 1885-1908, and then he sold it to his home country of Belgium who ruled the Congo from 1908 to 1960.

One concerns who I was and how I came to be as I am. So this is the autobiographical quest for personal roots and identity. A second question concerns my family and its history. It seems that I come from a well-documented and interesting family whose tentacles spread across the world and can be traced in detail from the later seventeenth century. A third question concerns England and Britain. I came back from India when I was six and encountered a new land. I needed to start to understand its distinctive history and culture. My final question concerns the British Empire.

    Curso 2012/13 CIENCIAS Y TECNOLOGÍAS/23 I.S.B.N.: 978-84-15910-90-9 SANTIAGO BASALDÚA LEMARCHAND Monte-Carlo tree search using expert knowledge: an application to computer go and human genetics Directores J. MARCOS MORENO VEGA CARLOS A. FLORES INFANTE SOPORTES AUDIOVISUALES E INFORMÁTICOS Serie Tesis Doctorales ciencias 23 (Santiago Basaldúa Lemarchand).indd 1 18/02/2014 11:24:43 Universidad de La Laguna Abstract Monte-Carlo Tree Search Using Expert Knowledge: An Application to Computer Go and Human Genetics During the years in which the research described in this PhD dissertation was done, Monte-Carlo Tree Search has become the preeminent algorithm in many AI and computer science fields. This dissertation analyzes how expert knowledge and also online learned knowledge can be used to enhance the search. The work describes two different implementations: as a two player search in computer go and as an optimization method in human genetics. It is established that in large problems MCTS has to be combined with domain specific or online learned knowledge to improve its strength. This work analyzes different successful ideas about how to do it, the resulting findings and their implications, hence improving our insight of MCTS. The main contributions to the field are: an analytical mathematical model improving the understanding of simulations, a problem definition and a framework including code and data to compare algorithms in human genetics and three successful implementations: in the field of 19x19 go openings named M-eval, in the field of learning playouts and in the field of genetic etiology. Also, an open source integer representation of proportions as Win/Loss States (WLS), a negative result in the field of playouts, an unexpected finding of a possible problem in optimization and further insight on the limitations of MCTS are worth mentioning.
