An essential introduction to statistics for students of psychology and the social sciences. Statistical thinking is increasingly essential to understanding our complex world and making informed decisions based on uncertain data. This incisive undergraduate textbook introduces students to the main ideas of statistics in a way that focuses on deep comprehension rather than rote application or mathematical immersion. The presentation of statistical concepts is thoroughly modern, sharing cutting-edge ideas from the fields of machine learning and data science that help students effectively use statistical methods to ask questions about data. Statistical Thinking provides the tools to describe complex patterns that emerge from data and to make accurate predictions and decisions based on data. The only way to really learn statistics is to do statistics. While many statistics courses historically have been taught using point-and-click statistical software, it is increasingly common for statistical education to use open source languages in which students can code their own analyses. I think that being able to code one’s analyses is essential in order to gain a deep appreciation for statistical analysis, which is why the students in my course at Stanford are expected to learn to use the R statistical programming language to analyze data, alongside the theoretical knowledge that they learn from this book. There are two openly available companions to this textbook that can help the reader get started learning to program; one focuses on the R programming language, and another focuses on the Python language.

A practical guide to using Excel for decision making, forecasting, optimization, and more. With this book, you will acquire a strong understanding of Management Science in the decision-making field while mastering the solutions with Microsoft Excel. This book alleviates complicated mathematical models with easy Microsoft Excel tools. Management science is a practice of problem-solving and decision-making in organizations, business, and other fields. It uses various analytical methods, including mathematical modeling and statistics, to improve the ability of better decision’s making. The techniques in this book range from maximization of profit, performance, and Return on Investment (ROI) to minimization (cost, time, risk) through Monte Carlos simulations, sensitivity analysis, and other tools. The readers will find countless real-life examples and case studies from banking, finance, transportation, manufacturing, manpower assignment, scheduling, and inventory management through food and product mix. This book's linear and nonlinear techniques utilize the Excel Solver for the solutions. Once you get the hang of using the Solver – you can apply the tools learned to solve problems of your background, experience, and choice. This book takes a hands-on approach using Excel to solve these problems. Instead of using complex mathematical formulations and algorithms – you will learn to set up and solve these problems in an easy-to-follow manner in Excel.

With the growing advances in technology and transformation to digital services, the world is becoming more connected and more complex. Huge heterogeneous data are generated at rapid speed from various types of sensors. Augmented with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and Internet of Things, latent relations, and new insights can be captured helping in optimizing plans and resource utilization, improving infrastructure, and enhancing quality of services. A “spatial data management system” is a way to take care of data that has something to do with space. This could include data such as maps, satellite images, and GPS data. A temporal data management system is a system designed to manage data that has a temporal component. This could include data such as weather data, financial data, and social media data. Some advanced techniques used in spatial and temporal data management systems include geospatial indexing for efficient querying and retrieval of location-based data, time-series analysis for understanding and predicting temporal patterns in datasets like weather or financial trends, machine learning algorithms for uncovering hidden patterns and correlations in large and complex datasets, and integration with Internet of Things (IoT) technologies for real-time data collection and analysis. These techniques, augmented with Artificial Intelligence, enable the extraction of latent relations and insights, thereby optimizing plans, improving infrastructure, and enhancing the quality of services. This book provides essential technical knowledge, best practices, and case studies on the state-of-the-art techniques of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for spatiotemporal data analysis and modeling. It can be used as academic reference at graduate level or by professionals in science and engineering related fields such as Data Science and engineering, Big Data analytics and mining, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep Learning, cloud computing, and Internet of Things.

For more than 30 years,this comprehensive manual has been the standard introduction and complete reference for writing articles and books containing mathematical formulas. This sixth edition uses a slightly changed title, Text and Math into LaTeX, to emphasize the importance of text in mathematical/scientific composition. Sections that contained commands no longer much needed (such as includeonly) and the introductory sections to PDF (now ubiquitous) have been omitted. Many sections are now enhanced with discussion of new and useful packages. An occasional encouragement for the reader to consult ChatGPT for confirmation on various points illustrates the positive relationship between ChatGPT and LaTeX. LaTeX is widely used in many fields, including mathematics, Computer Science, engineering, physics, chemistry, economics, and linguistics. (ChatGPT lists 45 fields). Part I provides a quick introduction to LATEX, from typing examples of text and math to typing your first article such as on that shown on page 4 and similarly: creating your first presentation, such as the sample presentation, in a very short time. The rest of the book provides a detailed exposition of LATEX. LATEX has a huge collection of rules and commands. While the basics in Part I should serve you well in all your writing, most articles and presentations will also require to look up some special topics.

This book establishes brand-new frame theory and technical implementation in Data Science, with a special focus on spatial-scale feature extraction, network dynamics, object-oriented analysis, data-driven environmental prediction, and climate diagnosis. Given that Data Science is unanimously recognized as a core driver for achieving Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations, these frame techniques bring fundamental changes to multi-channel data mining systems and support the development of digital Earth platforms. This book integrates the authors' frame research in the past twenty years and provides cutting-edge techniques and depth for scientists, professionals, and graduate students in Data Science, applied mathematics, environmental science, and geoscience. In this book, we have established the theory of Dirac frames, polynomial frames, quasiorthogonal frames, periodic frames, and frame trees, and characterized adaptive segmentation of data spectral domain by quasi-orthogonal and pseudo-project frame operators. As an emerging branch of statistical and Deep Learning, frame networks can automatically acquire novel knowledge from observation data through a statistical learning process and then makes reliable predictions and downscaling. A frame network consists of three layers: the input layer, the hidden layer, and the output layer, where various frames are embedded into each node of the hidden layer and frame coefficients are used as the weight of the directed edges from one node to another node.

If you use Linux in your day-to-day work, then Linux Pocket Guide is the perfect on-the-job reference. This thoroughly updated 20th anniversary edition explains more than 200 Linux commands, including new commands for file handling, package management, version control, file format conversions, and more. In this concise guide, author Daniel Barrett provides the most useful Linux commands grouped by functionality. Whether you're a novice or an experienced user, this practical book is an ideal reference for the most important Linux commands. This book is a short guide, not a comprehensive reference. I cover important, useful aspects of Linux so you can work productively. I do not, however, present every single command and every last option (my apologies if your favorite was omitted), nor delve into detail about operating system internals. Short, sweet, and essential—that’s our motto. I focus on commands, those pesky little words you type on a command line to tell a Linux system what to do.
