Together these technologies constitute what Sinan Aral calls the ‘Hype Machine’. Digital platforms like Facebook, Snapchat and Twitter are injecting the influence of peers into our daily decisions, driving the products we buy, how we vote and even who we love.Packed with original research conducted by Aral and his ...

In this book, you''ll learn how to leverage Elixir and the Nx ecosystem to solve real-world problems in computer vision, natural language processing, and more.The Elixir Nx project aims to make machine learning possible without the need to leave Elixir for solutions in other languages. And even if concepts like linear models and logistic regression are new to you, you''ll be using them and much more to solve real-world problems in no time.Start with the basics of the Nx programming paradigm - how it differs from the Elixir programming style you''re used to and how it enables you to write machine learning algorithms. Use your understanding of this paradigm to implement foundational machine learning algorithms from scratch. Go deeper and discover the power of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Russian Machine Guns since 1945 - Leroy Thompson
Written by a noted authority, this fully illustrated study describes and depicts the machine guns equipping Soviet and Russian troops after 1945. Following the USSR’s victory in World War II, the Soviet armed forces adopted a succession of new or improved machine guns. At squad level, the 7.62mm RPD and RP-46 light machine guns replaced the DPM, themselves being supplanted by the RPK from 1961. Firing the lighter 5.45×39mm cartridge, the RPK-74 was issued from 1974 and remains in use today. The 5.45mm RPK-16 entered Russian service in 2018. Having served alongside the 7.62mm PM M1910 Maxim during World War II, the 7.62mm SG-43 medium machine gun was updated as the SGM before being supplanted by the 7.62mm PK general-purpose machine gun, issued from 1961. The improved PKM made its debut in 1969 and still equips Russian troops today, being joined by the PKP in 2001 and the AEK-999 in 2008. First issued in 1938, the formidable 12.7mm DShK heavy machine gun remains in Russian service today as the DShkM. It was joined by the 14.5mm KPV from 1949, the 12.7mm NSV from 1971 and the 12.7mm Kord from 1998. In this illustrated survey, Leroy Thompson investigates the origins, development, ...

Machine Learning in Production - Christian Kastner
A practical and innovative textbook detailing how to build real-world software products with machine learning components, not just models.Traditional machine learning texts focus on how to train and evaluate the machine learning model, while MLOps books focus on how to streamline model development and deployment. But neither focus on how to build actual products that deliver value to users. This practical textbook, by contrast, details how to responsibly build products with machine learning components, covering the entire development lifecycle from requirements and design to quality assurance and operations. Machine Learning in Production brings an engineering mindset to the challenge of building systems that are usable, reliable, scalable, and safe within the context of real-world conditions of uncertainty, incomplete information, and resource constraints.
