This book is your comprehensive guide to Windows forensics. It covers the process of conducting or performing a forensic investigation of systems that run on Windows operating systems. It also includes analysis of incident response, recovery, and auditing of equipment used in executing any criminal activity. The book covers Windows registry, architecture, and systems as well as forensic techniques, along with coverage of how to write reports, legal standards, and how to testify. It starts with an introduction to Windows followed by forensic concepts and methods of creating forensic images. You will learn Windows file artefacts along with Windows Registry and Windows Memory forensics. And you will learn to work with PowerShell scripting for forensic applications and Windows email forensics. Microsoft Azure and cloud forensics are discussed and you will learn how to extract from the cloud. By the end of the book you will know data-hiding techniques in Windows and learn about volatility and a Windows Registry cheat sheet. This book is designed for two audiences. The first is the student that is learning forensics. This could be in a university setting or less formal setting. As the book assumes no prior knowledge of either forensics or Microsoft Windows, it can be used by a beginner. The second audience is the professional forensic examiner that requires a more in-depth understanding of Microsoft Windows forensics. This book will provide a depth that will give you a thorough understanding of how to do Windows forensics.

Fuzzy sets have been widely used to represent imprecise and fuzzy information in the real world. Although they are effective in dealing with such data, their capability to handle incomplete and inconsistent information is restricted. Recently, several extensions of fuzzy sets have attracted attention because of their improved versatility. This book, entitled Data‑Driven Modelling with Fuzzy Sets: Embracing Uncertainty, explores theories and advancements in the field. It also examines the wide‑ranging applications of various extensions of fuzzy sets theory. Additionally, the book delves into the practical applications of fuzzy sets in knowledge management, including evaluating student learning abilities, assessing academic performance and screening technical articles. It is primarily written for Senior undergraduate and graduate students and academic researchers in the fields of electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, Computer Science and engineering.

Over the past decade, since the publication of the first edition, there have been new advances in solving complex geoinformatics problems. Advancements in computing power, computing platforms, mathematical models, statistical models, geospatial algorithms, and the availability of data in various domains, among other things, have aided in the automation of complex real-world tasks and decision-making that inherently rely on geospatial data. Of the many fields benefiting from these latest advancements, Machine Learning, particularly Deep Learning, virtual reality, and game engine, have increasingly gained the interest of many researchers and practitioners. This revised new edition provides up-to-date knowledge on the latest developments related to these three fields for solving geoinformatics problems. Geospatial Big Data present two opportunities for the increased use of Machine Learning in the geospatial analytics domain. First, geospatial Big Data have created a shift toward considering large amounts of data as a resource that can be used to add value to an organization. Second, by virtue of the three Vs, volume, velocity, and variety, of Big Data, there is a shift away from complex models that require extensive computational and memory resources to techniques that instead can produce results in a more computationally efficient manner.

Data modeling is the single most overlooked feature in the Power BI Desktop, yet it's what sets Power BI apart from other tools on the market. This practical book serves as your fast-forward button for data modeling with Power BI, Analysis Services tabular, and SQL databases. It serves as a starting point for data modeling, as well as a handy refresher. Author Markus Ehrenmueller-Jensen, founder of Savory Data, shows you the basic concepts of Power BI's data model with hands-on examples in DAX, Power Query, and T-SQL. If you're looking to build a data warehouse layer, chapters with T-SQL examples will get you started. You'll begin with simple steps and gradually solve more complex problems. The first part of this book will introduce you to the necessary concepts in a general way, which is written in an agnostic way: You can apply this to any analytical system. In the second part you will learn about the properties of a data model in Power BI. The rest of this book works its way over DAX, Power Query to SQL. The book is designed for you, the reader, to have an individual experience, based on your knowledge. You may not know DAX, Power Query and SQL. But it is up to your choice, to pick and choose to fill in gaps in your knowledge.

This concise yet comprehensive guide explains how to adopt a data lakehouse architecture to implement modern data platforms. It reviews the design considerations, challenges, and best practices for implementing a lakehouse and provides key insights into the ways that using a lakehouse can impact your data platform, from managing structured and unstructured data and supporting BI and AI/ML use cases to enabling more rigorous data governance and security measures. Lakehouse architecture is one such modern architectural pattern that has evolved in the last few years. It has become a popular choice for data architects who are designing data platforms. In the Chapter 1, I’ll introduce you to fundamental concepts related to data architecture, data platform and its core components, and how data architecture helps build a data platform. Once you have understood these, I’ll explain why there is a need for new architectural patterns like lakehouse, lakehouse fundamentals, its characteristics, and the benefits of implementing a data platform using lakehouse architecture. I’ll conclude the chapter with key takeaways to summarize everything we discuss and help you remember the key points while reading the subsequent chapters in this book.

This fully updated 4th edition explores the foundations of statistical reasoning, focusing on how to interpret psychological data and statistical results. This edition includes three important new features. First, the book is closely integrated with the free statistical analysis program JASP. Thus, students learn how to use JASP to help with tasks such as constructing grouped frequency distributions, making violin plots, conducting inferential statistical tests, and creating confidence intervals. Second, reflecting the growing use of Bayesian analyses in the professional literature, this edition includes a chapter with an introduction to Bayesian statistics (also using JASP). Third, the revised text incorporates adjunct questions, that is, questions that challenge the student’s understanding, after each major section. Cognitive psychology has demonstrated how adjunct questions and related techniques such as self-explanation can greatly improve comprehension. With comprehensive digital resources, including large data sets integrated throughout the textbook, and files for conducting analysis in JASP, this is an essential text for undergraduate or beginning graduate statistics courses in psychology, education, and other applied social and health sciences.
