Machine Learning with Swift. Artificial Intelligence for iOS
Alexander Sosnovshchenko
Machine learning as a field promises to bring increased intelligence to the software by helping us learn and analyse information efficiently and discover certain patterns that humans cannot. This book will be your guide as you embark on an exciting journey in machine learning using the popular Swift language. We’ll start with machine learning basics in the first part of the book to develop a lasting intuition about fundamental machine learning concepts. We explore various supervised and unsupervised statistical learning techniques and how to implement them in Swift, while the third section walks you through deep learning techniques with the help of typical real-world cases. In the last section, we will dive into some hard core topics such as model compression, GPU acceleration and provide some recommendations to avoid common mistakes during machine learning application development. By the end of the book, you'll be able to develop intelligent applications written in Swift that can learn for themselves.

Google's TensorFlow is a game changer in the world of machine learning. It has made machine learning faster, simpler, and more accessible than ever before. This book will teach you how to easily get started with machine learning using the power of Python and TensorFlow 1.x. Firstly, you’ll cover the basic installation procedure and explore the capabilities of TensorFlow 1.x. This is followed by training and running the first classifier, and coverage of the unique features of the library including data ?ow graphs, training, and the visualization of performance with TensorBoard—all within an example-rich context using problems from multiple industries. You’ll be able to further explore text and image analysis, and be introduced to CNN models and their setup in TensorFlow 1.x. Next, you’ll implement a complete real-life production system from training to serving a deep learning model. As you advance you’ll learn about Amazon Web Services (AWS) and create a deep neural network to solve a video action recognition problem. Lastly, you’ll convert the Caffe model to TensorFlow and be introduced to the high-level TensorFlow library, TensorFlow-Slim.By the end of this book, you will be geared up to take on any challenges of implementing TensorFlow 1.x in your machine learning environment.

Machine Learning with the Elastic Stack is a comprehensive overview of the embedded commercial features of anomaly detection and forecasting. The book starts with installing and setting up Elastic Stack. You will perform time series analysis on varied kinds of data, such as log files, network flows, application metrics, and financial data.As you progress through the chapters, you will deploy machine learning within the Elastic Stack for logging, security, and metrics. In the concluding chapters, you will see how machine learning jobs can be automatically distributed and managed across the Elasticsearch cluster and made resilient to failure.By the end of this book, you will understand the performance aspects of incorporating machine learning within the Elastic ecosystem and create anomaly detection jobs and view results from Kibana directly.
Machines That Think. How Artificial Intelligence Works and What It Means for Us
Rheinwerk Publishing, Inc, Inga Strümke
Machines That Think explores the evolution of artificial intelligence (AI), from its roots in early theoretical frameworks to modern machine learning technologies. It begins by diving into the history of AI, featuring the foundational contributions of pioneers like Alan Turing and John von Neumann. The book then examines the attempts to make machines intelligent, covering symbolic AI, expert systems, and the rise of neural networks. With a focus on the technological advancements that shaped AI, this book provides readers with a deep understanding of how AI systems have evolved over time.The book continues by addressing the growing importance of data in AI systems. It explores how data shapes machine learning models and the inherent challenges faced by data scientists when gathering and processing data for AI applications. The impact of data on model accuracy and the ethical dilemmas surrounding its collection and usage are also discussed. In the final chapters, the book delves into the ethical and societal implications of AI, exploring issues such as privacy, accountability, and the future of AI in everyday life. It speculates on the future of artificial general intelligence (AGI) and superintelligence, contemplating the potential consequences of these technologies.
