What does every new developer do when they are first learning to program? They print out strings to their terminal. It's how we learn! But printing out to the terminal isn't what you do with most professional applications. In those cases, you log in. Sometimes, you log into multiple locations at once. These logs may serve as an audit trail for compliance purposes or help the engineers debug what went wrong. Python Logging teaches you how to log in the Python programming language. Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world. Python comes with a logging module that makes logging easy. You don’t need to be a programmer or engineer to use this book, but it helps. The primary target is people who want to learn about what logging in Python is and how to use it effectively. If you understand the basics of Python, then you’ll be even better off!

This book introduces pioneering developments in binary representation learning on visual images, a state-of-the-art data transformation methodology within the fields of Machine Learning and multimedia. Binary representation learning, often known as learning to hash or hashing, excels in converting high-dimensional data into compact binary codes meanwhile preserving the semantic attributes and maintaining the similarity measurements. In this book, we provide a comprehensive introduction to the theories, algorithms, and applications that cover the latest research in hashing-based visual image retrieval, with a focus on binary representations. These representations are crucial in enabling fast and reliable feature extraction and similarity assessments on large-scale data. This book offers an insightful analysis of various research methodologies in binary representation learning for visual images, ranging from basis shallow hashing, advanced high-order similarity-preserving hashing, deep hashing, as well as adversarial and robust deep hashing techniques. These approaches can empower readers to proficiently grasp the fundamental principles of the traditional and state-of-the-art methods in binary representations, modeling, and learning. The theories and methodologies of binary representation learning expounded in this book will be beneficial to readers from diverse domains such as Machine Learning, multimedia, social network analysis, web search, information retrieval, data mining, and others.

The main objective of this book is to introduce a student who is familiar with elementary math concepts to select topics in deep learning. It exploits strong connections between deep learning algorithms and the techniques of computational physics to achieve two important goals. First, it uses concepts from computational physics to develop an understanding of deep learning algorithms. Second, it describes several novel deep learning algorithms for solving challenging problems in computational physics, thereby offering someone who is interested in modeling physical phenomena with a complementary set of tools. It is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate students in science and engineering programs. It is used as a textbook for a course (or a course sequence) for senior-level undergraduate or graduate-level students.

This book describes a specific solution, known as Agile-SOFL, for bridging agile and formal engineering and discusses its benefits for realistic software projects. In this book, the author argues that formal engineering methods and agile approaches are complementary in ensuring high productivity while enhancing reliability. Agile-SOFL offers a highly practical and systematic method that strikes a good balance of efforts for enhancing both software productivity and reliability. Specifically, Agile-SOFL is characterized by five features: (1) systematic approach to constructing hybrid specifications for requirements-related faults prevention, (2) specification-based incremental programming for quality implementation, (3) specification-based inspection and testing for system validation, (4) automatic testing-based formal verification for the correctness of code, and (5) effective project management for high effectiveness and efficiency in applying Agile-SOFL.

What about learning about System Design with a Java flavor? In this book, you will learn essential fundamentals for System design within the Java ecosystem so you know what technologies to use to design a Java system! Nowadays, most companies ask for system design knowledge in their interviews. In this book, you will learn the fundamentals of a cloud system, how to make it scalable, and how to build robust systems. Instead of learning tools, focus on the concepts so you don't waste time trying to learn everything. The Systems design interview became very popular in the market nowadays. After the big techs Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and other companies started using it, all the other companies are doing the same. That’s why knowing how the systems design interview works is key for you to get a good job. The main objective of this book is to give you a solid foundational knowledge about Systems Design so you can learn any new technology faster. Programmers are not what the market wants anymore. Nowadays, companies are looking for software engineers, this means, a developer who can analyze a problem and come up with effective solutions. The ability of articulating a solution, creating good quality code, talking to coworkers, preparing documentation with architecture solutions, designing database, create performant and scalable systems are the skills companies are looking for. Some years ago, knowing a Java framework was enough for the market but the scenario has changed. That’s why the most powerful skill any software can have is the ability to learn, the ability to be a software engineer.

Learn how to find interesting behaviour and flaws in jаvascript. Reading this book you will find the latest and greatest techniques for hacking jаvascript and generating XSS payloads. Includes ways to construct jаvascript using only +[]()! characters. Never heard of DOM Clobbering? This book has all the details. Have you ever wondered how a hacker approaches finding flaws in the browser and jаvascript? This book shares the thought processes and gives you tools to find your own flaws. It shares the basics of jаvascript hacking, then dives in and explains how to construct jаvascript payloads that don't use parentheses. Once you’ve got your chosen environment set up the next step is to set a goal. If you have no goal you can be staring at a blank page not getting anywhere. A goal enables you to make sure you’re always trying something and it can be flexible too. For instance one of my goals was “execute jаvascript without parentheses”. If you’ve set a good goal it will almost likely never end and good ones also mutate into another goal for example the goal I mentioned earlier mutated into “execute jаvascript functions without parentheses and pass arguments”. Now you can see how these two goals are useful because now you have a clear idea what you have to do and you can abuse jаvascript features to achieve that goal.

This book introduces empirical methods for Machine Learning with a special focus on applications in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Data Science. The authors present problems of validity, reliability, and significance and provide common solutions based on statistical methodology to solve them. The book focuses on model-based empirical methods where data annotations and model predictions are treated as training data for interpretable probabilistic models from the well-understood families of generalized additive models (GAMs) and linear mixed effects models (LMEMs). Based on the interpretable parameters of the trained GAMs or LMEMs, the book presents model-based statistical tests such as a validity test that allows for the detection of circular features that circumvent learning. Furthermore, the book discusses a reliability coefficient using variance decomposition based on random effect parameters of LMEMs. Lastly, a significance test based on the likelihood ratios of nested LMEMs trained on the performance scores of two machine learning models is shown to naturally allow the inclusion of variations in meta-parameter settings into hypothesis testing, and further facilitates a refined system comparison conditional on properties of input data. The book is self-contained with an appendix on the mathematical background of generalized additive models and linear mixed effects models as well as an accompanying webpage with the related R and Python code to replicate the presented experiments. The second edition also features a new hands-on chapter that illustrates how to use the included tools in practical applications.
