IntechOpen was founded by scientists, for scientists, in order to make book publishing accessible around the globe. Over the last two decades, this has driven Open Access (OA) book publishing whilst levelling the playing field for global academics. Through our innovative publishing model and the support of the research community, we have now published over 5,700 Open Access books and are visited online by over three million academics every month. These researchers are increasingly working in broad technology-based subjects, driving multidisciplinary academic endeavours into human health, environment, and technology.

There will be direct links to preprint servers and data repositories, allowing full reproducibility and rapid dissemination of published papers to help accelerate the pace of research. Each journal has renowned Editors in Chief who will work alongside a global Editorial Board, delivering robust single-blind peer review. Supported by our internal editorial teams, this will ensure our authors will receive a quick, user-friendly, and personalised publishing experience.
\\n\\n"By launching our journals portfolio we are introducing new, dedicated homes for interdisciplinary technology-focused researchers to publish their work, whilst embracing Open Science and creating a unique global home for academics to disseminate their work.

We rapidly learn to identify, characterize and eventually distinguish those who are near and dear to us. We accept face recognition later as an everyday ability. We realize the complexity of the underlying problem only when we attempt to duplicate this skill in a computer vision system. This book is arranged around a number of clustered themes covering different aspects of face recognition. The first section on Statistical Face Models and Classifiers presents reviews and refinements of some well-known statistical models. The next section presents two articles exploring the use of Infrared imaging techniques and is followed by few articles devoted to refinements of classical methods. New approaches to improve the robustness of face analysis techniques are followed by two articles dealing with real-time challenges in video sequences. A final article explores human perceptual issues of face recognition.",isbn:null,printIsbn:"978-953-307-368-2",pdfIsbn:"978-953-51-4481-6",doi:"10.5772/743",price:139,priceEur:155,priceUsd:179,slug:"reviews-refinements-and-new-ideas-in-face-recognition",numberOfPages:340,isOpenForSubmission:!1,isInWos:1,isInBkci:!0,hash:"73465ad0d0df2ebdbac76610a57c4b75",bookSignature:"Peter M.

Parasitology, an important part of biology, is the science responsible for the study of parasitism, that is, the relationship between parasite, host, and environment, in the understanding that parasite is that living being that is housed and/or fed by another living being during part or all of its life, generally who is staying is of different species, of greater size, and more developed structure than the host; the parasite is understood. The relationship between living beings is complex; therefore, the study of it must be constant and from different approaches, with the purpose of increasing and deepening knowledge about it [1]. So:
That is why the relationship between living beings is complex; therefore, the study of it must be constant and from different approaches, with the purpose of increasing and deepening knowledge about it. This is particularly relevant for the complex biological cycles that parasites follow in their lives (in search of temperature, humidity, and food conducive to live, reproduce, and perpetuate the species), often marked by different evolutionary forms and reproductive or maturation stage, which also implies the passage through more than one host in many of these species and even with different degrees of specificity, ranging from those restricted to a single host species to those capable of developing into host species very far phylogenetically [4].
The foregoing highlights the universality and complexity of the health problems caused by the different species of parasites that affect communities in all countries of the world and reveals the dedication of a large number of academics dedicated to basic, clinical, and epidemiological research in pursuit of control or eradication of them [4].
Parasitology seeks to unravel, the purpose of this book, the dynamic process that is established between parasite and host, in terms of molecular matrix, parasitic adaptation, modifications induced by the host, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment, among other aspects, as well as already within the vast field of ecology, the vital conditions, and the environment of obligatory or facultative parasitism, that is, protozoa, helminths, or arthropods, be monoxenous or heteroxenous parasites, both at the individual and population level [5].
The writing of this document encourages the fact that parasitic diseases are not considered as important public health problems, or as a cause of epidemiological emergencies, and because the poor and poorly served populations are the most affected, also those that do not invest enough in research of new therapeutic and diagnostic tools, because they are considered in many cases not very lucrative. This is despite the fact that parasitism is one of the most widespread lifestyles in nature, it is pointed out that practically any living organism can host some kind of parasite [6].
The sure thing is that parasitism implies some degree of loss of biological efficiency in the host that result in slight to severe damage to its structure, which of course justifies its inclusion among the great aspects or issues to be considered in biology, in the medical, and veterinary research within the framework of the great biodiversity, which are the point of origin of the approach to such fascinating life forms, perhaps one of the most striking in nature, this is particularly interesting due to the fact that parasitic diseases. The intensity, period of appearance, age groups, and even sex affect human and animal differently [7, 8, 9].
To this it is added that parasites are not kept confined in the regions where they are generally endemic, since it is known that due to incidental or accidental circumstances, these can be transported to other regions to which they can adapt and produce infections and diseases in the populations of animals and humans living there; therefore, the updating of the epidemiological behavior (always complex and dynamic) by specialists in the field is absolutely necessary and indispensable for effective intervention against its spread, or spread reduces the impact they have on animal and human welfare [10, 11].
Parasitic diseases are currently considered a serious public health problem around the world, of course, with more severe consequences in countries with less economic development and of course in the poor and rural areas of most of the countries that make up the region. In planet Earth, to the point that the incidence and prevalence of parasitic diseases are considered as indicators of the health status of animal and human populations and the conditions in which they live, for example, in Latin America, the prevalence of parasitic diseases is persistently elevated, perhaps due to dynamic processes of repeated reinfections, where infection pressure and host susceptibility come into play [12, 13, 14, 15].
In summary, etiological agents, biological cycles, and the processes of invasion, establishment, and propagation should be constantly reviewed, as well as the mechanisms of defense and evasion and of pathogenesis, in order to elucidate or at least try the complex parasite–host relationship, and offer a better understanding of the clinical manifestations that consent to laying the rational basis for the control of parasite. With the inescapable consideration of the epidemiological aspects, that allow to answer the where, when and why of the appearance of parasitic diseases and of the risk factors involved in the genesis of them and contribute with this in the policies and designs of effective interventions to modify the adverse health situation, this because despite the great scientific and technological advances in the field of human and veterinary medicine, the parasite, curable and preventable in its majority continue to be a serious threat to health [16, 17].
With the globalization of the life of the human being, its technology, its development, trade, and tourism, there has been an impressive increase in the dissemination of diseases generated by parasites, as they are not restricted by geographical barriers, to which enormously sophisticated and modern systems of air, sea, and land transportation are currently available for the movement of humans, animals, and virtually this represents a fundamental reason for the constant study of the epidemiological behavior of parasites in their daily effort to ensure their survival [11].
There are several parasite species capable of producing epidemics, especially through water and food, among which the protozoa, capable of causing giardiasis, cryptosporidiosis, cyclosporiasis, and toxoplasmosis, are favored by these routes of dissemination. Also the increase of immunocompromised individuals due to diseases such as AIDS and changes or combinations of cultural patterns regarding customs and habits in the human groups derived from displacements, for example, the practice of eating foods that are not cooked or raw, which undoubtedly they favor parasitic infection [10, 11, 18, 19, 20, 21].
Another factor to mention in the context of globalization as a cause of dissemination of parasitic diseases is the modification that has been made to the environment and that has caused global warming within the so-called climate change that contributes to the spread of diseases transmitted by arthropods, in function of those parasites with forms or evolutionary stages or their life cycle that have a mandatory passage through the earth to complete their life cycle. However, the interconnection that characterizes humanity requires the constant updating of knowledge about parasitic diseases in order to control them and, if possible, eradicate them [11, 22, 23].
The Internet has irrevocably changed the dynamics of scholarly communication and publishing. Consequently, we find it necessary to indicate, unambiguously, our definition of what we consider to be a published scientific work.
",metaTitle:"Prior Publication Policy",metaDescription:"Prior Publication Policy",metaKeywords:null,canonicalURL:"/page/prior-publication-policy",contentRaw:'[{"type":"htmlEditorComponent","content":"A significant number of working papers, early drafts, and similar work in progress are openly shared online between members of the scientific community. It has become common to announce one’s own research on a personal website or a blog to gather comments and suggestions from other researchers. Such works and online postings are, indeed, published in the sense that they are made publicly available. However, this does not mean that if submitted for publication by IntechOpen they are not original works. We differentiate between reviewed and non-reviewed works when determining whether a work is original and has been published in a scholarly sense or not.
\\n\\nThe significance of Peer Review cannot be overstated when it comes to defining, in our terms, what constitutes a published scientific work. Peer Review is widely considered to be the cornerstone of modern publishing processes and the key value-adding contribution to a scholarly manuscript that a publisher can make.
\\n\\nOther than the issue of originality, research misconduct is another major issue that all publishers have to address. IntechOpen’s Retraction & Correction Policy and various publication ethics guidelines identify both redundant publication and (self)plagiarism to fall within the definition of research misconduct, thus constituting grounds for rejection or the issue of a Retraction if the work has already been published.
\\n\\nIn order to facilitate the tracking of a manuscript’s publishing history and its development from its earliest draft to the manuscript submitted, we encourage Authors to disclose any instances of a manuscript’s prior publication, whether it be through a conference presentation, a newspaper article, a working paper publicly available in a repository or a blog post.
\\n\\nA note to the Academic Editor containing detailed information about a submitted manuscript’s previous public availability is the preferred means of reporting prior publication. This helps us determine if there are any earlier versions of a manuscript that should be disclosed to our readers or if any of those earlier versions should be cited and listed in a manuscript’s references.
\\n\\nSome basic information about the editorial treatment of different varieties of prior publication is laid out below:
\\n\\n1. CONFERENCE PAPERS & PRESENTATIONS
\\n\\nGiven that conference papers and presentations generally pass through some sort of peer or editorial review, we consider them to be published in the accepted scholarly sense, particularly if they are published as a part of conference proceedings.
\\n\\nAll submitted manuscripts originating from a previously published conference paper must contain at least 50% of new original content to be accepted for review and considered for publication.
\\n\\nAuthors are required to report any links their manuscript might have with their earlier conference papers and presentations in a note to the Academic Editor, as well as in the manuscript itself. Additionally, Authors should obtain any necessary permissions from the publisher of their conference paper if copyright transfer occurred during the publishing process. Failure to do so may prevent Us from publishing an otherwise worthy work.
\\n\\n2. NEWSPAPER & MAGAZINE ARTICLES
\\n\\nNewspaper and magazine articles usually do not pass through any extensive peer or editorial review and we do not consider them to be published in the scholarly sense. Articles appearing in newspapers and magazines rarely possess the depth and structure characteristic of scholarly articles.
\\n\\nSubmitted manuscripts stemming from a previous newspaper or magazine article will be accepted for review and considered for publication. However, Authors are strongly advised to report any such publication in an accompanying note to the External Editor.
\\n\\nAs with the conference papers and presentations, Authors should obtain any necessary permissions from the newspaper or magazine that published the work, and indicate that they have done so in a note to the External Editor.
\\n\\n3. GREY LITERATURE
\\n\\nWhite papers, working papers, technical reports and all other forms of papers which fall within the scope of the ‘Luxembourg definition’ of grey literature do not pass through any extensive peer or editorial review and we do not consider them to be published in the scholarly sense.
\\n\\nAlthough such papers are regularly made publicly available via personal websites and institutional repositories, their general purpose is to gather comments and feedback from Authors’ colleagues in order to further improve a manuscript intended for future publication.
\\n\\nWhen submitting their work, Authors are required to disclose the existence of any publicly available earlier drafts in a note to the Academic Editor. In cases where earlier drafts of the submitted version of the manuscript are publicly available, any overlap between the versions will generally not be considered an instance of self-plagiarism.
\\n\\n4. SOCIAL MEDIA, BLOG & MESSAGE BOARD POSTINGS
\\n\\nWe feel that social media, blogs and message boards are generally used with the same intention as grey literature, to formulate ideas for a manuscript and gather early feedback from like-minded researchers in order to improve a particular piece of work before submitting it for publication. Therefore, we do not consider such internet postings to be publication in the scholarly sense.
\\n\\nNevertheless, Authors are encouraged to disclose the existence of any internet postings in which they outline and describe their research or posted passages of their manuscripts in a note to the Academic Editor. Please note that we will not strictly enforce this request in the same way that we would instructions we consider to be part of our conditions of acceptance for publication. We understand that it may be difficult to keep track of all one’s internet postings in which the researcher´s current work might be mentioned.
\\n\\nIn cases where there is any overlap between the Author´s submitted manuscript and related internet postings, we will generally not consider it to be an instance of self-plagiarism. This also holds true for any co-Author as well.
