In the last three decades, machine learning research and practice have
focused on batch learning usually using small datasets. In batch learning, the
whole training data is available to the algorithm, which outputs a decision
model after processing the data eventually (or most of the times) multiple
times. The rationale behind this...
The stats tell us that people are switching from Windows to the Mac in record numbers,
but those stats don’t tell us why. Perhaps it’s because Windows users
would like to actually enjoy using a computer for a change. Perhaps it’s because Macs just work:
you take them out of the box, plug them in, and within minutes...
Poorly performing enterprise applications are the weakest links in a
corporation ’ s management chains, causing delays and disruptions of
critical business functions. In trying to strengthen the links, companies
spend dearly on applications tuning and sizing; unfortunately, the only
deliverables of many of such ventures...
The Linux TCP/IP Stack: Networking for Embedded Systems provides an in-depth guide to implementing and using the Linux TCP/IP stack in embedded systems projects. It begins with a general overview of TCP/IP networking, with background information on applicable networking standards. From there, it details the TCP/IP implementation in Linux 2.6...
The Affective Computing domain, term coined by Rosalind Picard in 1997, gathers several scientific areas such as computer science, cognitive science, psychology, design and art. The humane-machine interaction systems are no longer solely fast and efficient. They aim to offer to users affective experiences: user’s affective state is...
The book introduces the latest methods and algorithms developed in machine and deep learning (hybrid symbolic-numeric computations, robust statistical techniques for clustering and eliminating data as well as convolutional neural networks) dealing not only with images and the use of computers, but also their applications to visualization tasks...
The book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th EAI International Conference on Communications and Networking, held in October 2018 in Chengdu, China. The 71 papers presented were carefully selected from 114 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on wireless communications and networking, next...

Technical drawings by the architects and engineers of the Renaissance made use of a range of new methods of graphic representation. These drawingsвДamong them Leonardo da Vinci's famous drawings of mechanical devicesвДhave long been studied for their aesthetic qualities and technological ingenuity, but their significance...
The definitive machine design handbook for mechanical engineers, product designers, project engineers, design engineers, and manufacturing engineers covers every aspect of machine construction and operation. The 3rd edition of the Standard Handbook of Machine Design will be redesigned to meet the challenges of a new mechanical engineering...
This book focuses mainly on the new features of Windows Server 2003 and how you can integrate them into your existing infrastructure. These new changes heavily revolve around COM+, IIS 6, and web services. New features have been added to COM+ so that your applications (COM+ components) are much more stable and secure. Some of...
