Software engineering is as much about teamwork as it is about technology. This introductory textbook covers both. For courses featuring a team project, it offers tips and templates for aligning classroom concepts with the needs of the students' projects. Students will learn how software is developed in industry by adopting agile methods, discovering requirements, designing modular systems, selecting effective tests, and using metrics to track progress. The book also covers the 'why' behind the 'how-to', to prepare students for advances in industry practices. The chapters explore ways of eliciting what users really want, how clean architecture divides and conquers the inherent complexity of software systems, how test coverage is essential for detecting the inevitable defects in code, and much more. Ravi Sethi provides real-life case studies and examples to demonstrate practical applications of the concepts. Online resources include sample project materials for students, and lecture slides for instructors. This book is intended for a junior - or senior-level introductory course in software engineering. Students are expected to have enough programming maturity to engage in a team project.

The goal of this book is to provide a mathematical perspective on some key elements of the so-called Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Much of the interest in Deep Learning has focused on the implementation of DNN-based algorithms. Our hope is that this compact textbook will offer a complementary point of view that emphasizes the underlying mathematical ideas. We believe that a more foundational perspective will help to answer important questions that have only received empirical answers so far. Our goal is to introduce basic concepts from Deep Learning, e. g., mathematical definitions of DNNs, loss functions, the backpropagation algorithm, etc., in a rigorous mathematical fashion. We attempt to identify for each concept the simplest setting that minimizes technicalities but still contains the key mathematics.

Machine Learning can help managers make better predictions, automate complex tasks and improve business operations. Managers who are familiar with Machine Learning (ML) are better placed to navigate the increasingly digital world we live in. There is a view that Machine Learning is a highly technical subject that can only be understood by specialists. However, many of the ideas that underpin Machine Learning are straightforward and accessible to anyone with a bit of curiosity. This book is for managers who want to understand what Machine Learning is about, but who lack a technical background in Computer Science, statistics or math. The book describes in plain language what Machine Learning is and how it works. In addition, it explains how to manage Machine Learning projects within an organization.

Приложения ASP.NET Core подвержены риску атак. Существуют конкретные меры, которые помогут избежать взлома. В книге показаны такие методы защиты веб-приложений ASP.NET Core, как безопасное взаимодействие с браузером, распознавание и предотвращение распространенных угроз, развертывание уникальных API безопасности этого фреймворка. Приводятся способы написания безопасного кода и примеры с аннотациями, а также полное описание встроенных инструментов безопасности ASP.NET Core. Рассматриваются реальные нарушения в системе безопасности, включая мошеннические расширения Firefox и кражу паролей в Adobe. Стек, который мы будем использовать в этой книге, – это .NET; а поскольку мы говорим о веб-приложениях, то в центре внимания будет фреймворк ASP.NET Core. Книга была написана с использованием .NET 6 и ASP.NET Core 6, но надеюсь, что она будет полезна и при работе с более новыми версиями.

Python for Scientific Computing and Artificial Intelligence is split into 3 parts: in Section 1, the reader is introduced to the Python programming language and shown how Python can aid in the understanding of advanced High School Mathematics. In Section 2, the reader is shown how Python can be used to solve real-world problems from a broad range of scientific disciplines. Finally, in Section 3, the reader is introduced to neural networks and shown how TensorFlow (written in Python) can be used to solve a large array of problems in Artificial Intelligence (AI). This book has developed from a series of university, national and international workshops that I have been delivering for over twenty years. It is based on the programming language Python, which is a high-level programming language and supports functional, imperative, object-oriented and procedural styles of programming. Probably the most important aspect of Python is that it is open source and completely free to the user.

Всегда хотели попробовать себя в программировании? Больше никаких отговорок, потому что Python - это идеальный способ начать! Python - отличный язык программирования как для новичков, так и для экспертов. Он разработан с учетом удобства чтения кода, что делает его отличным выбором для новичков, которые все еще привыкают к различным концепциям программирования. Язык популярен и имеет множество библиотек, что позволяет программистам добиться многого, используя относительно небольшой объем кода. На Python можно создавать самые разные приложения: можно использовать фреймворк Pygame для написания простых 2D-игр, можно использовать библиотеки GTK для создания оконного приложения, а можно попробовать что-то более амбициозное, например, создать приложение с использованием библиотек Python Bluetooth и Input для захвата ввода с USB-клавиатуры и передачи событий ввода на телефон Android.

Your training data has as much to do with the success of your data project as the algorithms themselves--most failures in Deep Learning systems relate to training data. But while training data is the foundation for successful Machine Learning, there are few comprehensive resources to help you ace the process. This hands-on guide explains how to work with and scale training data. What is Training Data? Training Data is the control of a Supervised System. Training Data controls the system by defining the ground truth goals for the creation of Machine Learning models. This involves technical representations, people decisions, processes, tooling, system design, and a variety of new concepts specific to Training Data. In a sense, a Training Data mindset is a paradigm upon which a growing list of theories, research and standards are emerging. A Machine Learning (ML) Model that is created as the end result of a ML Training Process.

Master Python techniques and libraries to reduce run times, efficiently handle huge datasets, and optimize execution for complex Machine Learning applications. The purpose of this book is to help you write more efficient applications in the Python ecosystem. By more efficient, I mean that your code will use fewer CPU cycles, less storage space, and less network communication. The book takes a holistic approach to the problem of performance. We not only discuss code optimization techniques in pure Python, but we also consider the efficient use of widely used data libraries, like NumPy and Pandas. Because Python is not sufficiently performant in some cases, we also consider Cython when we need more speed. In line with this holistic approach, we also discuss the impact of hardware on code design: we analyze the impact of modern computer architectures on algorithm performance. We also examine the effect of network architectures on efficiency, and we explore the usage of GPU computing for fast data analysis. Fast Python is your guide to optimizing every part of your Python-based data analysis process, from the pure Python code you write to managing the resources of modern hardware and GPUs.

Master the math behind CAD, game engines, GIS, and more! Geometry for Programmers guides you through the math behind graphics and modeling tools. To make the book applicable, I gathered a list of practical examples from my own practice and from popular interview questions. Although I write mostly in C++ professionally, I present the source-code samples in Python solely for ease of trying them. To make the book approachable, I delegated all the tedious math work to SymPy, a Python library that does your algebra and calculus for you. I also introduced some algebra and calculus in the book, but briefly. You don’t have to spend months in training to become good at moving xs and ys around; SymPy, which you can learn in 15 minutes, will take care of that. Geometry for Programmersis both practical and entertaining. Fun illustrations and engaging examples show you how to apply geometry to real programming problems, like changing a scan into a CAD model or developing 3D printing contours from a parametric function. And don’t worry if you aren’t a math expert. There’s no heavy theory, and you’ll learn how to offload most equations to the SymPy computer algebra system. Examples are in Python, and all you need is high school–level math.
