This practical guide shows, step by step, how to use Machine Learning to carry out actionable decisions that do not discriminate based on numerous human factors, including ethnicity and gender. The authors examine the many kinds of bias that occur in the field today and provide mitigation strategies that are ready to deploy across a wide range of technologies, applications, and industries. Edited by engineering and computing experts, Mitigating Bias in Machine Learning includes contributions from recognized scholars and professionals working across different artificial intelligence sectors. Each chapter addresses a different topic and real-world case studies are featured throughout that highlight discriminatory machine learning practices and clearly show how they were reduced. This textbook is ideal for undergraduate or graduate students or those seeking an introduction to ML. Since there are few textbooks with practical applications of ML, this contribution will fill in the gap by introducing the topic with an emphasis on a real-world perspective and implementations.

The software architect role is evolving. As systems and their interactions with the teams that build, run, and evolve them become more complex, it's often impossible for those playing the traditional architect roles to be everywhere they need to be. There's simply too much architecture to be done, and the situation has reached a breaking point. There's a better way. Author Andrew Harmel-Law shows you how architects and development teams can collaborate to create and evolve more efficient architectures for their systems. Techniques in this book will help you learn how to create a mindset that allows everyone to practice architecture and build the best systems they've ever experienced. This book is primarily aimed at the two groups I am trying to bring together: developers looking to take steps into architectural accountability and architects learning to add facilitation skills to their repertoire.

Python Programming for Mathematics focuses on the practical use of the Python language in a range of different areas of mathematics. Python is a leading programming language in the scientific world. It is perfectly adapted to program mathematical problems. This book focuses on the practical use of the Python language in different areas of mathematics: sequences, linear algebra, integration, graph theory, finding zeros of functions, probability, statistics, differential equations, symbolic calculus, and number theory. Through 55 exercises of increasing difficulty, and corrected in detail, it gives a good overview of the possibilities of using programming in mathematics and to be able to solve complex mathematical problems. It is not necessary to do the exercises in the order suggested, even if some exercises sometimes call upon notions seen in previous exercises. This book does not aim to explain the syntax and principles of the Python language, so the prerequisite is to know the basics. Moreover, the realization of the exercises requires access to a computer or an online service with Python 3.6 (or more recent) completed by the following modules: NumPy, SciPy, SymPy, Matplotlib, Numba, NetworkX, and Pandas.

Once you've mastered the basics of Python, how do you skill up to the top 1%? How do you focus your learning time on topics that yield the most benefit for production engineering and data teams—without getting distracted by info of little real-world use? This book answers these questions and more. Based on author Aaron Maxwell's software engineering career in Silicon Valley, this unique book focuses on the Python first principles that act to accelerate everything else: the 5% of programming knowledge that makes the remaining 95% fall like dominos. It's also this knowledge that helps you become an exceptional Python programmer, fast. This book is for you if you know the basics of Python and have mastered just about everything the beginner tutorials can teach you. It is also for those who want to learn more advanced techniques and strategies, so you can do more with Python, and more with coding, than you could before.

This third edition comprehensively captures the cutting-edge research achievements of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Topics are thoroughly revised and updated, presenting the latest techniques and strategies to address the impending challenges facing computer scientists today. Artificial Intelligence is a branch of Computer Science and is a discipline to study machine intelligence that uses artificial methods and techniques, develops intelligent machines or intelligent systems to emulate, extend, and expand human intelligence, and realizes intelligent behavior. Machine Learning is the study of how computers can simulate or implement human learning behavior to acquire new knowledge or skills, and reorganize existing knowledge structures to continuously improve their own performance. Only by allowing computer systems to have human-like learning capabilities can it be possible to achieve human-level Artificial Intelligence. Machine Learning is one of the core issues in AI research and is a very active research field in current AI theoretical research and practical applications. Common Machine Learning methods include inductive learning, analogy learning, analytical learning, reinforcement learning, genetic algorithm, and connection learning. Deep Learning is a new field in Machine Learning research. It imitates the analysis and learning mechanism of human brain neural networks to interpret images, sound, and text data.

Surveys are powerful tools for gathering information, uncovering insights, and facilitating decision-making. However, to ensure the accurate interpretation of results, they require specific analysis methods. In this book, readers embark on an in-depth journey into conducting complex survey analysis with the {srvyr} package and Tidyverse family of functions from the R programming language. Intended for intermediate R users familiar with the basics of the Tidyverse, this book gives readers a deeper understanding of applying appropriate survey analysis techniques using {srvyr}, {survey}, and other related packages. With practical walkthroughs featuring real-world datasets, such as the American National Election Studies and Residential Energy Consumption Survey, readers will develop the skills necessary to perform impactful survey analysis on survey data collected through a randomized sample design. Additionally, this book teaches readers how to interpret and communicate results of survey data effectively. This book is tailored for analysts already familiar with R and the Tidyverse, but who may be new to complex survey analysis in R.
