A lot of financial modeling has gravitated toward Python, R, and VBA, but many developers hit a wall with these languages when it comes to performance. This practical book demonstrates why C++ is still one of the dominant production-quality languages for financial applications and systems. Many programmers believe that C++ is too difficult to learn. Author Daniel Hanson demonstrates that this is no longer the case. Before launching into programming in C++, it will be useful to present a brief overview of the language the C++ Standard Library, and the ways in which C++ continues to have a major presence in quantitative finance. You may have already felt intimidated by opinions and rumors claiming that C++ is extraordinarily difficult to learn and fraught with minefields. So, in this chapter, we will try to allay these fears by first debunking some of the common myths about C++, and then presenting straightforward examples to help you get up and running.

With the seminal paper by Diffie and Hellman, and the introduction to public-key cryptography, a very broad area of research has emerged. Public-key cryptography includes not only the asymmetric variants of encryption and authentication, i.e. public-key encryption and signature schemes, but also many other innovative and impressively powerful tools. This book aims at presenting the main cryptographic primitives that have been proposed within the last 40 years, with chapters written by famous cryptographers, who are all specialists in the specific domains, with several publications in the main international venues on cryptography. I am very honored they all accepted my invitation to participate and make this book as complete as possible. This book starts with a presentation of the main primitives of public key cryptography, namely public-key encryption and signatures, including definitions and security models.

This contributed volume consists of 11 chapters that specifically cover the security aspects of the latest technologies such as Blockchain, IoT, and DevOps, and how to effectively deal with them using Intelligent techniques. Moreover, Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms are also not secured and often manipulated by attackers for data stealing. This book also discusses the types of attacks and offers novel solutions to counter the attacks on ML and DL algorithms. This book describes the concepts and issues with figures and the supporting arguments with facts and charts. In addition to that, the book provides the comparison of different security solutions in terms of experimental results with tables and charts. Besides, the book also provides the future directions for each chapter and novel alternative approaches, wherever applicable. Often the existing literature provides domain-specific knowledge such as the description of security aspects. However, the readers find it difficult to understand how to tackle the application-specific security issues. This book takes one step forward and offers the security issues, current trends, and technologies supported by alternate solutions. Moreover, the book provides thorough guidance on the applicability of ML and DL algorithms to deal with application-specific security issues followed by novel approaches to counter threats to ML and DL algorithms.

Название: Real Life Applications of Multiple Criteria Decision Making Techniques in Fuzzy Domain

This edited book discusses creative and recent developments of fuzzy systems and its real-life applications of multiple criteria decision making. Keeping on the existing fuzzy sets and recent developed fuzzy sets, viz., intuitionistic fuzzy, Pythagorean fuzzy, Fermatean fuzzy, Hesitant fuzzy and multiple criteria decision approaches, this book is committed to probing the soft computing techniques and fuzzy multiple criteria decision making in favour of fuzzy intelligent system and business analytics. It also addresses novel development of fuzzy set theory as well as real-life applications of fuzzy systems. It presents challenging and useful real-world applications based on problems of decision making in various fields. The modelling and solution procedures of such real-world problems will be provided concisely although all topics start with a more developed resolution.

Название: The Smiling Chatbot: Investigating Emotional Contagion in Human-to-Chatbot Service Interactions

Significant advances in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have given a strong tailwind to the spread of technologies based on it. AI technologies are increasingly influencing private contexts but also the service sector where more and more service encounters are handled by chatbots. In part, however, the spread of chatbots and the associated focus on their functional advantages seem to contradict extant research findings that service interactions are also driven by emotional components. A central role is played here by so-called emotional contagion (i.e., the unconscious transfer of emotions from employees to customers). Against the background that this contagion with positive emotions can lead to a better evaluation of the service transaction in the further course, it is the goal of this book to investigate the effects of positive displayed emotions of a chatbot. For this purpose, six consecutive studies were conducted. The results show that the expression of positive emotions by a chatbot enriches the service interactions by transmitting positive emotions that, in the further course, do also lead to a better evaluation of the service experienced. Moreover, it is shown that these emotional reactions are dependent on the customer's personality and the chatbot's appearance, expressed through an avatar.

Название: Programming PowerPoint With VBA Straight to the Point

Формат: pdf (true), epub (true)
Размер: 12.4 MB

This book assumes you already use PowerPoint and want to automate or enhance your presentations using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). This book includes VBA samples for working with layouts, themes & masters, creating tables, drawing objects, charting, animation effects and event programming. It also includes a chapter for interfacing between PowerPoint and Word, Excel, Access or Outlook. There is a joke saying that PowerPoint is a free application that comes along when you buy Excel… Actually, PowerPoint is a complex program that offers everything you need to create and manage professionally built presentations. This book assumes you are already a PowerPoint user who wants to automate and enhance your presentations using Visual Basic for Applications, which is currently the Office programming language. It is also a pre-requisite that you have basic knowledge on how VBA works, as we do not have room here to teach it from the ground up. We will review some concepts, but the main goal of this book will be to show how VBA can make PowerPoint even better.

Learn to use the Ansible open source IT automation tool to automate your VMware infrastructure. This book contains all of the obvious and not-so-obvious best practices of Ansible automation. Each lesson summarizes a specific use case for the modern VMware infrastructure and is focused on a single module from the most important parameter, including live demo of code and real-life usage. You'll configure the Ansible Controller to interact with VMware infrastructure using the “community.VMware” Ansible documentation collection and the appropriate Python libraries. Next, learn how to automate the creation of a virtual machine manually and from a template, start and stop using the shutdown and forced-power off a Virtual Machine, take and delete and snapshot, add a new hard disk and expand a currently attached hard disk, as well as gather information for data centers, clusters, host systems, and virtual machines.

Deep Network Design for Medical Image Computing: Principles and Applications covers a range of MIC tasks and discusses design principles of these tasks for Deep Learning approaches in medicine. These include skin disease classification, vertebrae identification and localization, cardiac ultrasound image segmentation, 2D/3D medical image registration for intervention, metal artifact reduction, sparse-view artifact reduction, etc. For each topic, the book provides a deep learning-based solution that takes into account the medical or biological aspect of the problem and how the solution addresses a variety of important questions surrounding architecture, the design of Deep Learning techniques, when to introduce adversarial learning, and more. This book will help graduate students and researchers develop a better understanding of the Deep Learning design principles for MIC and to apply them to their medical problems.
