Applied Linear Regression for Business Analytics with R introduces regression analysis to business students using the R programming language with a focus on illustrating and solving real-time, topical problems. Specifically, this book presents modern and relevant case studies from the business world, along with clear and concise explanations of the theory, intuition, hands-on examples, and the coding required to employ regression modeling. Each chapter includes the mathematical formulation and details of regression analysis and provides in-depth practical analysis using the R programming language. In modern statistics, the fundamental concepts of linear regression have changed little over the past decades. More work has been done to develop and expand on these existing concepts, and regression continues to be an active area of research. Today, many linear regression methods are broadly considered Machine Learning or, even more broadly, Artificial Intelligence. Traditional linear regression analysis can be used to make predictions and inferential understanding.

Although Kubernetes continues to be today's dominant container orchestration tool, running and managing Kubernetes is no easy task. Setting up and maintaining a Kubernetes cluster alone is complicated, and inconsistencies between various Kubernetes providers often compound the problem. This report introduces Cluster API, an open source CNCF project to bring declarative, Kubernetes-style APIs to cluster creation, configuration, and management. In this report, Spectro Cloud cofounders Tenry Fu and Saad Malik evaluate Cluster API's role as the foundation for holistic modern container management. IT operations and DevOps teams will explore the evolution of Kubernetes management approaches and learn how Cluster API can drive consistency and improve operational efficiency.

The success of any software application or system depends on the architecture style you use. This updated report presents several common architecture styles to guide designers and developers on how to design components and to help you determine the ways in which those components should interact. Author Mark Richards takes a deep dive into many common software architecture styles. Each chapter includes a full explanation of how a particular style works, outlines its benefits and considerations, and describes the circumstances and conditions the style was designed to address. This report also presents an analysis of and scorecard for each style based on several architecture and software development quality attributes.

Build augmented reality effects using Spark AR focusing on practical, project-based learning. With access to this technology being available in nearly every smartphone, the world of AR is expanding every day. Now is a great time to tell your creative story through this new medium. We will begin by learning the fundamentals of augmented reality, become familiar with key terminology, and discover the use cases this technology is most effective for. Using that foundational knowledge, we will learn how to make selfie effects, create virtual objects in the real world, and build games that respond to facial expressions and physical inputs. On completing the book, you will learn to ship effects publicly, to market their effects, and to create effects which are inclusive to their audience and have real user value.

This book will show how generative technology works and the drivers. It will also look at the applications – showing what various startups and large companies are doing in the space. There will also be a look at the challenges and risk factors. During the past decade, companies have spent billions on AI. But the focus has been on applying the technology to predictions – which is known as analytical AI. It can mean that you receive TikTok videos that you cannot resist. Or analytical AI can fend against spam or fraud or forecast when a package will be delivered. While such things are beneficial, there is much more to AI. The next megatrend will be leveraging the technology to be creative. For example, you could take a book and an AI model will turn it into a movie – at very little cost. This is all part of generative AI. It’s still in the nascent stages but it is progressing quickly. Generative AI can already create engaging blog posts, social media messages, beautiful artwork and compelling videos. Auto Code Generation: The technology may not necessarily replace coders. Instead, it will allow for pair programming. Think of the AI as a valuable assistant. In other words, this can greatly increase the productivity of existing IT staffs. Usually, an AI code generation system is plugged into an IDE or Integrated Development Environment.

Create a mobile app for Apple platforms using SwiftUI in conjunction with Google’s Firebase backend to post and retrieve data, authenticate users, and store data securely. You’ll use SwiftUI to create an engaging and aesthetically appealing user interface that meets the expectations of iOS users while leveraging the power of Google’s Firebase to securely and seamlessly work with your backend data. With an intro to Xcode and SwiftUI, followed by tutorials on how build an app with Firestore, Firebase Storage, and the Authenticate framework, you'll find everything you need to build a complete iOS application. You’ll begin with an introduction to Firebase and an overview of how to use Xcode and write code in SwiftUI. Then dive into two real-life projects where you'll build a note application and a social media application. With these projects, you'll see how to post, read, edit, and delete data using Firestore. You'll also upload large assets, such as pictures, to Firebase Storage, and we will also authenticate users with email and Sign in with Apple. On the backend, you'll learn how to structure our data, secure it, and also use third-party extensions to enhance the user experience.

Метаобучение – одна из самых быстрорастущих областей исследований в области машинного обучения (МО) – изучает методы получения эффективных моделей и решений путем адаптации процессов МО и интеллектуального анализа данных. Для адаптации обычно применяют информацию из опыта решения других задач, а адаптивные процессы могут использовать подходы МО. AutoML занимается автоматизацией процессов машинного обучения и является очень актуальной темой, напрямую связанной с метаобучением. Метаобучение и AutoML помогают искусственному интеллекту научиться выбирать наиболее подходящие методы самообучения и быстрее находить новые решения без вмешательства пользователя. Издание адресовано исследователям в области машинного обучения, интеллектуального анализа данных и искусственного интеллекта, а также может быть полезно студентам и аспирантам.

Git Essentials is a book for for all developers, beginner to advanced, and written to get you up to speed with the world's most popular version control system. Git has become synonymous with VCSs and is expected to be in the wheelhouse of every developer as one of the most fundamental tools used to coordinate software development. Stop turning to Google every time you need to commit some code, create a feature branch, or tag a release. With this book, you'll actually learn Git instead of just memorize the commands. This book assumes no prior experience with Git, it applies to any operating system, and will work with any source files that can be version controlled. Throughout the book, we’ll be building a very simple project to help out with illustrating the workings of Git. The final state of that example can be found on GitHub, an immensely popular platform for hosting software engineering projects and version control using Git. We’ll be using Java to create a simple calculator, though, the exact same steps are applied to any type of file or language you’re using. Whether you’re writing a fantasy book and want to keep track of the changes, or you’re making software - Git applies to all in much the same way.
