If you are a developer who wants to learn the basic skills of web and application programming interfaces (APIs) with .NET, this book is your complete introduction. The book takes a learn-by-experience approach. You will hit the ground running with a sample project that has everything you need to be wired up. As you follow along, you will learn simple and intuitive conventions that will free you from some of the more tedious decisions and work, in order to allow you to focus on the business requirements required by your team. Certain components of the framework should always appear in certain folders in the solution to speed up development while others need a name that follows particular conventions. You will learn the building blocks of Web API and how to leverage them to have a well-rounded API. Understanding these small but important tricks will make development faster, easier, and more pleasant, and will prevent time-consuming errors. The ASP.NET Web API is a set of libraries that allows us to develop RESTful HTTP APIs (backends) using .NET, C#, or the language we prefer to work with, in .NET.

This book focuses on Deep Learning (DL), which is an important aspect of Data Science, that includes predictive modeling. DL applications are widely used in domains such as finance, transport, healthcare, automanufacturing, and advertising. The design of the DL models based on artificial neural networks is influenced by the structure and operation of the brain. This book presents a comprehensive resource for those who seek a solid grasp of the techniques in DL. Deep Learning (DL) is an important and evolving area in data science that includes statistics and predictive modeling. It is concerned with algorithms inspired by the brain’s structure and functions known as artificial neural networks. DL can automatically learn features in data, by updating learned weights at each layer. This book provides adequate theoretical coverage of DL techniques and applications. This book will teach deep learning concepts from scratch. We aim to make DL approachable by teaching the concepts and theories behind DL models. Thus, practitioners can grab the critical thinking skills required to formulate problems, design and develop models to make accurate predictions and support the decision- making process.

In computer science, a data structure is a particular way of storing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently. Different kinds of data structures are suited to various kinds of applications, and some are highly specialized to certain tasks. For Example, B-Trees are well suited for implementation of databases, while compiler implementations usually use hash tables to look up for identifiers. Data structures are used almost in every program or software. Data structures are generally based on the ability of a computer to fetch and store data at any place in its memory, specified by an address- a bit string that can be itself stored in memory and manipulated by the program. Thus, the record and array data structure are based on computing the address of data items with arithmetic’s operation; while the linked list data structures are based on storing address of data items within the structure itself.

This book provides you with relevant information about using intermediate Python 3.x for a variety of topics, such as comprehensions, iterators, generators, regular expressions, OOP, queues and stacks, and recursion. Each chapter contains an assortment of code samples that illustrate the topics covered in the chapter material. Companion files including code samples are available by writing to the publisher. This book is intended to reach an international audience of readers with highly diverse backgrounds in various age groups. While many readers know how to read English, their native spoken language is not English (which could be their second, third, or even fourth language). Consequently, this book uses standard English rather than colloquial expressions that might be confusing to those readers. As you know, many people learn by different types of imitation, which includes reading, writing, or hearing new material. The book takes these points into consideration in order to provide a comfortable and meaningful learning experience for the intended readers.

Whether based on academic theories or discovered empirically by humans and machines, all financial models are at the mercy of modeling errors that can be mitigated but not eliminated. Probabilistic ML technologies are based on a simple and intuitive definition of probability and the rigorous calculus of probability theory. Unlike conventional AI systems, probabilistic Machine Learning (ML) systems treat errors and uncertainties as features, not bugs. They quantify uncertainty generated from inexact model inputs and outputs as probability distributions, not point estimates. Probabilistic ML is the next generation ML framework and technology for AI-powered financial and investing systems for many reasons. They are generative ensembles that learn continually from small and noisy financial datasets while seamlessly enabling probabilistic inference, prediction and counterfactual reasoning. In this book, I am assuming that readers have a basic familiarity with finance, statistics, Machine Learning, and Python. I am not assuming that they have read any particular book or mastered any particular skill. I am only assuming that they have a willingness to learn, especially when ChatGPT, Bard, and Bing AI can easily explain any code or formula in this book.

This book is to explore and explain the strategically sound capabilities at the synchronization between quantum computing and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The reader will be presented with an introduction and a deeper review of the technological trends and transitions being unearthed in the quantum computing and AI domains. Quantum artificial intelligence (QAI) is being proclaimed as the most powerful technology for the future. QAI is a strategically sound combination of two pathbreaking technologies: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and quantum computing. By running AI algorithms and models on quantum computers, it is possible for bringing in delectable revolutions and evolutions across industry verticals. However, there is a long way to traverse to build and use fault-tolerant quantum computers. AI can surmount many practical problems getting associated with quantum computers. The key use cases that can be accomplished by QAI include visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, financial analysis, and language translation. Running AI models on quantum computers is more advantageous than running the same on conventional and classical computing.
