This revamped and updated book focuses on the latest in AI technology―Generative AI. It builds on the first edition by moving away from traditional data science into the area of applied AI using the latest breakthroughs in Generative AI. Based on real-world projects, this edition takes a deep look into new concepts and approaches such as Prompt Engineering, testing and grounding of Large Language Models, fine tuning, and implementing new solution architectures such as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). You will learn about new embedded AI technologies in Search, such as Semantic and Vector Search. Written with a view on how to implement Generative AI in software, this book contains examples and sample code. In addition to traditional Data Science experimentation in Azure Machine Learning (AML) that was covered in the first edition, the authors cover new tools such as Azure AI Studio, specifically for testing and experimentation with Generative AI models.

Precision agriculture is a next-generation farming management concept that optimizes resource use, productivity, quality, profitability, and sustainability by observing and responding to crop variability. Precision agriculture employs digital technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), 5G communication, cybersecurity, edge computing, cloud-native principles, and blockchain to ensure crops and soil receive exactly what they need for optimal health and productivity. Artificial Intelligence for Precision Agriculture explores the latest developments in precision agriculture, detailing how AI contributes to its goals. The book discusses how precision agriculture solutions use IoT devices, data storage, AI analytics, connectivity, and cloud infrastructures to analyze factors such as soil type, terrain, weather, plant growth, and yield data. It also examines edge technologies—sensors, microchips, beacons, RFID tags, robots, drones, and actuators—that collect field data and transmit it to cloud-based AI platforms for analysis. The book shows how AI-driven insights guide actions in the field, such as crop rotation, optimal planting and harvesting times, and soil management, and help farmers apply the right amounts of water, fertilizers, and pesticides, reducing waste and environmental impact. Machine Learning is a technique that uses mathematics and statistical learning to create a model that helps in predicting the values which are not known prior. In Machine Learning, we try to solve problems with computers without explicitly programming them for a specific task.

Learn Kotlin Through 37 Projects. Kotlin isn’t just for building Android apps. As you’ll learn in Kotlin from Scratch, it’s also a general programming language for crafting both elegant and efficient code. With the aid of 37 hands-on projects, you’ll move quickly through the language basics while building your problem-solving skills, even tackling advanced concepts like fractals, dynamic systems, and nature-inspired algorithms. You’ll explore the way Kotlin handles variables, control structures, functions, classes, and data structures, and you’ll learn to create visualizations using Kotlin and the JavaFX graphics library. Then you’ll build increasingly sophisticated apps to practice what you’ve learned while tackling challenges from math and science to algorithms and optimization. Kotlin runs on the same platform as Java, the Java Virtual Machine, and is fully compatible with Java. However, Kotlin is much more concise and expressive, with its own unique features.

With the advances in the Internet, AI, and robot technologies, our daily lives and professional environments have increasingly incorporated a variety of digital media. My research and development efforts have been centered around a new, emerging type of medium: avatars. Avatars, which include both teleoperated robots and computer-generated (CG) agents, enable users to operate in physically distant locations or even virtual environments, such as the metaverse. Attracted by their convenience and the broad spectrum of possibilities, various organizations, including companies and hospitals, have explored utilizing robot avatars. However, despite the initial enthusiasm, the widespread adoption experienced only a modest surge and failed to firmly establish itself. The large-scale societal shift toward telework has clearly highlighted avatar technology’s potential to reshape how we work, communicate, and interact within a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

A practical introduction to data engineering on the powerful Snowflake cloud data platform. Data engineers create the pipelines that ingest raw data, transform it, and funnel it to the analysts and professionals who need it. The Snowflake cloud data platform provides a suite of productivity-focused tools and features that simplify building and maintaining data pipelines. In Snowflake Data Engineering, Snowflake Data Superhero Maja Ferle shows you how to get started. Snowflake Data Engineering reveals how Snowflake makes it easy to work with unstructured data, set up continuous ingestion with Snowpipe, and keep your data safe and secure with best-in-class data governance features. Along the way, you’ll practice the most important data engineering tasks as you work through relevant hands-on examples. Throughout, author Maja Ferle shares design tips drawn from her years of experience to ensure your pipeline follows the best practices of software engineering, security, and data governance. Since Snowflake is a relational database, knowledge of SQL querying, including data definition language (DDL) and data manipulation language (DML) operations, is vital. Depending on the reader’s preference, if they plan to use Snowpark with Python, they must also know how to write Python code.

Learn how and why to use Kubernetes to deploy projects of any size. “Should we use Kubernetes?” This unique guide condenses 15 years of deployment experience to help answer that very question. It teaches you sustainable deployment practices you can use with any programming language and nearly any kind of modern app. You’ll create portable and containerized applications that can move across deployment options and cloud providers and see why Kubernetes is often the right choice for both small projects and big enterprise software. With Road to Kubernetes, we start with creating simple Python and Node.js web applications. These applications will stay with us for our entire journey so we can learn about all the various tools and techniques to deploy them. From there, we start using secure shells (SSH) and modern version control by way of Git with self-managed environments, self-managed repositories, and self-managed deployments. If you are unsure if Kubernetes is right for you or your project, this is the book for you. Ideally, you have some basic knowledge of writing Python or jаvascript code, so you have the foundation to start with the practical examples in this book.

Судьбы великих русских ученых – одна из самых интересных страниц в истории России. Большинство из них – и самородки, и потомки известных династий – служили государству, обогащая его своим талантом. А потому жива в народе память о первопечатнике Иване Фёдорове, символом российского просвещения стал Михайло Ломоносов, мы с почтением называем самолёты туполевскими или ильюшинскими, чтим память о Петре Капице и восхищаемся академиками, которые открыли России и человечеству путь к космическим вершинам – Сергеем Королёвым, Валентином Глушко и их учителями – Константином Циолковским, Фридрихом Цандером.
