Te małe seksowne cyferki. Jak rozwinąć biznes przy użyciu danych, które już mamy
Paul Brown, Dimitri Maex
Czy możesz sobie wyobrazić, że jesteś w stanie zidentyfikować klientów przynoszących największe zyski, wypracować lepszą strategię komunikowania się z nimi i zainspirować ich, aby kupowali więcej? A więc, naprawdę możesz to zrobić. A najlepsze jest to, że możesz to osiągnąć używając danych, które już masz. Wszystko, co robimy, tworzy dane. Za każdym razem, gdy ktoś ogląda coś w sieci, szuka w Google lub nawet przegląda sieć w swoim telefonie, tworzona jest kolejna cząstka danych, które mogą pomóc nam zrozumieć i przewidzieć zachowanie konsumentów. Rewolucja w analizowaniu danych właśnie się toczy i metody oraz narzędzia radzące sobie z tym „potopem danych” stają się coraz prostsze i mniej kosztowne, a jednocześnie bardziej precyzyjne, niż kiedykolwiek wcześniej. Dimitri Maex, Managing Director globalnej agencji reklamowej OgilvyOne New York i mózg praktyki analitycznej stosowanej w agencji pokazuje, jak możemy przekształcić swoje dane – te małe seksowne cyferki, które mogą zapewnić więcej zysków naszemu biznesowi – w skuteczne strategie prawdziwego wzrostu. W jasnym, przejrzystym stylu wyjaśnia, jak: • Ustalić, którzy klienci mają największy potencjał zwiększenia wartości, po których można spodziewać się większych zakupów, a którzy nie są warci targetowania. • Alokować zasoby marketingowe w najlepszy możliwy sposób. • Przewidzieć, jakich produktów lub usług klienci będą potrzebować w przyszłości. • Zoptymalizować swoją obecność w sieci, aby uzyskać największy zwrot z wyszukiwania. Lektura obowiązkowa dla marketerów starających się uzyskać najwyższy zwrot z inwestycji, właścicieli małych firm pragnących rosnąć szybciej lub kreatywnych twórców pragnących poznać reakcję na swoje działania – i nie tylko.

TensorFlow. 13 praktycznych projektów wykorzystujących uczenie maszynowe
Ankit Jain, Armando Fandango, Amita Kapoor
TensorFlow służy do projektowania i wdrażania zaawansowanych architektur głębokiego uczenia. Jego zaletami są prostota, wydajność i elastyczność. Umożliwia budowanie złożonych rozwiązań na bazie różnorodnych zbiorów danych. Co więcej, pozwala na stosowanie różnych technik uczenia nadzorowanego, nienadzorowanego oraz uczenia przez wzmacnianie. TensorFlow zmienił sposób postrzegania uczenia maszynowego. Dzięki temu środowisku każdy, kto chce uczynić z dużych zbiorów danych wiarygodne źródło wiedzy, może ten cel osiągnąć - niezależnie od tego, czy jest analitykiem danych, naukowcem, projektantem, czy pasjonatem metod sztucznej inteligencji. To książka przeznaczona dla osób, które chcą nauczyć się tworzyć całościowe rozwiązania z wykorzystaniem uczenia maszynowego. Poszczególne zagadnienia zilustrowano trzynastoma praktycznymi projektami, w których wykorzystano między innymi analizy sentymentów, przetwarzanie języka naturalnego, systemy rekomendacyjne, generatywne sieci kontradyktoryjne czy sieci kapsułowe. Pokazano, w jaki sposób używać TensorFlow z interfejsem APO Spark i wspomagać obliczenia układami GPU. Przedstawiono zastosowanie rozkładu macierzy (SVD++), modeli rankingowych i odmian splotowej sieci neuronowej. Nie zabrakło prezentacji nowych rozwiązań o dużym potencjale, takich jak sieci DiscoGAN. Dołączony do książki kod źródłowy, liczne wskazówki i porady pozwolą na płynne rozpoczęcie pracy z TensorFlow oraz innymi narzędziami do budowy sieci neuronowych. W tej książce między innymi: podstawy pracy z TensorFlow wykorzystanie TensorFlow do wizualizacji sieci neuronowych zastosowanie procesu gaussowskiego do prognozowania cen akcji wykrywanie oszukańczych transakcji za pomocą TensorFlow i Keras implementacja sieci kapsułowych w TensorFlow techniki uczenia przez wzmacnianie TensorFlow: prostota, wydajność i imponujący potencjał!
