Consumer awareness of the purchasing of safe and eco-friendly apparel products is on the rise. Knowledge of the restricted substances helps the industry navigate often complex product safety and chemical management requirements in order to address consumer preferences in the apparel supply chain. There is no doubt that risk analysis of the product at appropriate stage eliminates the possibilities of existence of restricted substances by adopting a right safety compliance policy. Thus, different safety aspects of apparel and its related requirements shall be covered in Product safety and restricted substances in apparel. Potential sources of restricted substances, chemicals of concern, and the scope of implementation for a proper testing program will also be discussed. Different standards to comply with legal regulations associated with the chemical management of restricted substances will be included in this book.

Learn How to Properly Use the Latest Analytics Approaches in Your Organization Computational Business Analytics presents tools and techniques for descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics applicable across multiple domains. Through many examples and challenging case studies from a variety of fields, practitioners easily see the connections to their own problems and can then formulate their own solution strategies. The book first covers core descriptive and inferential statistics for analytics. The author then enhances numerical statistical techniques with symbolic artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques for richer predictive and prescriptive analytics. With a special emphasis on methods that handle time and textual data, the text: <ul>
<li>Enriches principal component and factor analyses with subspace methods, such as latent semantic analyses </li> <li>Combines regression analyses with probabilistic graphical modeling, such as Bayesian networks </li> <li>Extends autoregression and survival analysis techniques with the Kalman filter, hidden Markov models, and dynamic Bayesian networks </li> <li>Embeds decision trees within influence diagrams</li> <li>Augments nearest-neighbor and k-means clustering techniques with support vector machines and neural networks </li> </ul> These approaches are not replacements of traditional statistics-based analytics; rather, in most cases, a generalized technique can be reduced to the underlying traditional base technique under very restrictive conditions. The book shows how these enriched techniques offer efficient solutions in areas, including customer segmentation, churn prediction, credit risk assessment, fraud detection, and advertising campaigns.

Professional engineers must have ethics to make decisions which should be self-reliant and autonomous. They should be morally committed and equipped to tackle ethical dilemmas they face and to hold paramount the safety, Health, and welfare of the public. Actions of an engineer must be like a true professional. Engineering ethics is more than mere knowledge and skills, and that the final goal of engineering ethics is to foster qualities and abilities that enable engineers to make self - reliant/autonomous decisions and actions as professionals. The objective of this book is to introduce the readers to the ethical concepts lead to resolving moral issues in engineering, understanding of ethics and responsibility of engineers as professionals, ability to make ethical judgments and solve problems, attitude required and values shared by engineers to interface social, technological and natural environments.
