After covering the importance of Julia to the data science community and several essential data science principles, we start with the basics including how to install Julia and its powerful libraries. Many examples are provided as we illustrate how to leverage each Julia command, dataset, and function.

Specialized script packages are introduced and described. Hands-on problems representative of those commonly encountered throughout the data science pipeline are provided, and we guide you in the use of Julia in solving them using published datasets. Many of these scenarios make use of...

This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 7th International Workshop on Constructive Side-Channel Analysis and Secure Design, COSADE 2016, held in Graz, Austria, in April 2016.
The 12 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: security and physical attacks; side-channel analysis (case studies); fault analysis; and side-channel analysis (tools).

This book provides an introduction to fuzzy logic approaches useful in image processing. The authors start by introducing image processing tasks of low and medium level such as thresholding, enhancement, edge detection, morphological filters, and segmentation and shows how fuzzy logic approaches apply. The book is divided into two parts. The first includes vagueness and ambiguity in digital images, fuzzy image processing, fuzzy rule based systems, and fuzzy clustering. The second part includes applications to image processing, image thresholding, color contrast enhancement, edge detection,...

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 27th International Workshop on Combinatorial Algorithms, IWOCA 2016, held in Helsinki, Finland, in August 2016.
The 35 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 87 submissions. They were organized in topical sessions named: computational complexity; computational geometry; networks; enumeration; online algorithms; algorithmic graph theory; dynamic programming; combinatorial algorithms; graph algorithms; combinatorics; and probabilistics.

Being able to make near-real-time decisions is becoming increasingly crucial. To succeed, we need machine learning systems that can turn massive amounts of data into valuable insights. But when you're just starting out in the data science field, how do you get started creating machine learning applications? The answer is TensorFlow, a new open source machine learning library from Google. The TensorFlow library can take your high level designs and turn them into the low level mathematical operations required by machine learning algorithms.

This book is the first easy-to-read text on nonsmooth optimization (NSO, not necessarily differentiable optimization). Solving these kinds of problems plays a critical role in many industrial applications and real-world modeling systems, for example in the context of image denoising, optimal control, neural network training, data mining, economics and computational chemistry and physics. The book covers both the theory and the numerical methods used in NSO and provide an overview of different problems arising in the field. It is organized into three parts:

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on Combinatorial Optimization, ISCO 2016, held in Vietri sul Mare, Italy, in May 2016. The 38 revised full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 98 submissions. They present original research on all aspects of combinatorial optimization, such as algorithms and complexity; mathematical programming; operations research; stochastic optimization; and graphs and combinatorics.

The two-volume set, LNCS 9878 and 9879 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 21st European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS 2016, held in Heraklion, Greece, in September 2016.

The 60 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 285 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in security and privacy, including data protection: systems security, network security, access control, authentication, and security in such emerging areas as cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, and the Internet of Things.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval, SPIRE 2016, held in Beppu, Japan, in October 2016. The 25 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The focus of the papers is on fundamental studies of string processes and information retrieval and its applications for example to areas such as bioinformatics, Web mining and others.

This book provides an extensive review of three interrelated issues: land fragmentation, land consolidation, and land reallocation, and it presents in detail the theoretical background, design, development and application of a prototype integrated planning and decision support system for land consolidation. The system integrates geographic information systems (GIS) and artificial intelligence techniques including expert systems (ES) and genetic algorithms (GAs) with multi-criteria decision methods (MCDM), both multi-attribute (MADM) and multi-objective (MODM). The system is based on four...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Computer Vision and Graphic, ICCVG 2016, held in Warsaw, Poland, in September 2016. The 68 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. They show various opportunities for valuable research at the border of applied information sciences, agribusiness, veterinary medicine and the broadly understood domains of biology and economy.

This book treats three planning problems arising in public railway transportation planning: line planning, timetabling, and delay management, with the objective to minimize passengers' travel time. While many optimization approaches simplify these problems by assuming that passengers' route choice is independent of the solution, this book focuses on models which take into account that passengers will adapt their travel route to the implemented planning solution. That is, a planning solution and passengers' routes are determined and evaluated simultaneously.

Artificial Intelligence is the most exciting technology of the century, and Deep Learning is, quite literally, the "brain" behind the world's smartest Artificial Intelligence systems out there.

Grokking Deep Learning is the perfect place to begin the deep learning journey. Rather than just learning the "black box" API of some library or framework, readers will actually understand how to build these algorithms completely from scratch.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
