Solid C and C++ knowledge is a must to fully understand Linux diagnostic artifacts such as core memory dumps and do diagnostic, forensic, and root cause analysis beyond listing backtraces. This full-color reference book is a part of the Accelerated C & C++ for Linux Diagnostics training course organized by Software Diagnostics Services. The text contains slides, brief notes highlighting particular points, and replicated source code fragments that are easy to copy into your favorite IDE. Our primary goal is to learn C and C++ and its internals in an accelerated fashion. First, we review common C and C++ fundamentals necessary for software diagnostics. Then, we learn various C++ features with a focus on memory and internals. We also see examples of how the knowledge of C and C++ helps in diagnostics and debugging. After I created a similar Windows-based training, it was natural to port it to Linux. Also, attendees of core dump analysis and reversing training courses asked questions related to C and C++, and I realized that they would have also benefitted if they had this training. This training may also fill some gaps between these courses. Finally, I recently developed the Accelerated Linux API training course (see the References section at the end of the book), where solid knowledge of classic C and C++ is assumed, and the current C and C++ course may provide such knowledge.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, this comprehensive guide will take you on a journey through Angular's powerful features and best practices. Angular is a popular open-source web development framework created and maintained by Google. It allows developers to build dynamic, single-page applications (SPAs) and is often used for developing complex and feature-rich web applications. Angular follows a component-based architecture, where the application is composed of reusable and self-contained building blocks called components. Components encapsulate the presentation logic, UI elements, and behavior of a specific part of the application. Angular uses HTML templates to define the structure and layout of the user interface. Templates are enhanced with additional syntax and directives provided by Angular, allowing for dynamic rendering and data binding. Angular provides powerful data binding capabilities, enabling the synchronization of data between the components and the UI. There are different types of data binding, including one-way binding (from component to UI or vice versa), two-way binding (synchronizing data in both directions), and event binding (responding to user actions). Angular is primarily written in TypeScript, a statically-typed superset of jаvascript. TypeScript brings features like static typing, enhanced tooling, and better IDE support to Angular development, improving code quality and developer productivity. Angular offers a comprehensive framework for building modern web applications. It emphasizes code reusability, maintainability, and testability, making it a popular choice for developers working on large-scale projects.

Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned developer, this comprehensive guide will take you on a journey through React's powerful ecosystem. React is an open-source jаvascript library used for building user interfaces (UIs) in web applications. It was developed by Facebook and was later released as an open-source project. React allows developers to create reusable UI components that can be combined to build complex and interactive web applications. At its core, React uses a declarative approach to building UIs. Instead of manipulating the DOM directly, developers describe how the UI should look at any given point in time, and React takes care of updating the actual DOM efficiently. React uses a virtual DOM (a lightweight representation of the actual DOM) to optimize performance. When there are changes in the application's state or props, React compares the virtual DOM with the real DOM and only updates the necessary parts, minimizing the number of actual DOM manipulations. This approach makes React highly efficient and helps in creating fast and responsive user interfaces. Whether you're building web applications or mobile apps, this guide equips you with the knowledge and techniques to create exceptional React-powered experiences. With in-depth explanations and practical examples, the "Essential Guide to React for All Levels" is your go-to resource for mastering React development.

An engaging and essential discussion of generative Artificial Intelligence. In Generative AI: Navigating the Course to the Artificial General Intelligence Future, celebrated author Martin Musiol―founder and CEO of generativeAI.net and GenAI Lead for Europe at Infosys―delivers an incisive and one-of-a-kind discussion of the current capabilities, future potential, and inner workings of generative artificial intelligence. In the book, you'll explore the short but eventful history of generative artificial intelligence, what it's achieved so far, and how it's likely to evolve in the future. You'll also get a peek at how emerging technologies are converging to create exciting new possibilities in the GenAI space. Musiol analyzes complex and foundational topics in generative AI, breaking them down into straightforward and easy-to-understand pieces. AI can perform tasks ranging from predefined expert answers, also known as expert systems, to tasks that require human-level intelligence. Think about recognizing speech and images, understanding natural language processing (NLP), making sophisticated decisions, and solving complex problems. For tasks like this, the AI has to train on a respective dataset until it is able to perform the desired activity as well as possible. This self-learning part of AI is referred to as machine learning (ML). Because most of the interesting applications are happening through machine learning in one way or another, and to keep it simple, we use AI and ML interchangeably.

Medical images can highlight differences between healthy tissue and unhealthy tissue and these images can then be assessed by a healthcare professional to identify the stage and spread of a disease so a treatment path can be established. With Machine Learning techniques becoming more prevalent in healthcare, algorithms can be trained to identify healthy or unhealthy tissues and quickly differentiate between the two. Statistical models can be used to process numerous images of the same type in a fraction of the time it would take a human to assess the same quantity, saving time and money in aiding practitioners in their assessment. This edited book discusses feature extraction processes, reviews Deep Learning methods for medical segmentation tasks, outlines optimisation algorithms and regularisation techniques, illustrates image classification and retrieval systems, and highlights text recognition tools, game theory, and the detection of misinformation for improving healthcare provision. Machine Learning in Medical Imaging and Computer Vision provides state of the art research on the integration of new and emerging technologies for the medical imaging processing and analysis fields. This book outlines future directions for increasing the efficiency of conventional imaging models to achieve better performance in diagnoses as well as in the characterization of complex pathological conditions.
