This book is a comprehensive guide on the C programming language, offering a blend of foundational knowledge and practical applications. Starting with a brief about the author, the book delves into the history, importance, and workings of the C compiler, differentiating between source files and header files. It guides readers through a comprehensive understanding of static and dynamic libraries and their interaction with CMake. The second chapter dives deep into C's basic syntax, data types, operators, control structures, and key elements such as "size_t", "typedef", "sizeof", and the "volatile" keyword. This section also provides a detailed explanation of error handling, structures, enumerations, functions, arrays, strings, and pointers. The third chapter stands out due to its focus on practical C programming, including bit manipulation, list, set, and map data structures, socket programming, file processing, and concurrency. It covers graphic programming with OpenGL, audio files, parallel computing with OpenCL and CUDA, and the comparison between them. It explores data integrity, privacy with asymmetric encryption, and securing sensitive data. This section also features interfacing C with assembly language, Java, Python, shell commands, and specifics about memory location access. The fourth chapter emphasizes safety-critical code development, presenting the Power of 10 rules. The fifth chapter elucidates code optimization techniques, debugging, testing with GDB, and the Check framework for unit testing, highlighting common pitfalls. Finally, the book culminates with a chapter providing practical projects and exercises for self-assessment, including solutions and explanations. This book serves as an extensive resource for both beginners and advanced learners aiming to master C programming.

This book offers a comprehensive and unbiased introduction to 3D Computer Vision, ranging from its foundations and essential principles to advanced methodologies and technologies. Divided into 11 chapters, it covers the main workflow of 3D computer vision as follows: camera imaging and calibration models; various modes and means of 3D image acquisition; binocular, trinocular and multi-ocular stereo vision matching techniques; monocular single-image and multi-image scene restoration methods; point cloud data processing and modeling; simultaneous location and mapping; generalized image and scene matching; and understanding spatial-temporal behavior. Computer Vision is the use of computers to realize human visual functions, that is, the sensation, perception, processing, and interpretation of three-dimensional scenes in the objective world. The original purpose of vision research is to grasp and understand the image of the scene; identify and locate the objects in it; determine their own structure, spatial arrangement, and distribution; and explain the relationship between objects. The research goal of computer vision is to make meaningful judgments about actual objects and scenes in the objective world based on perceived images. Deep Learning uses cascaded multilayer nonlinear processing units for feature extraction and transformation, realizing multilevel feature representation and concept abstraction learning. Deep Learning still belongs to the category of Machine Learning, but compared with traditional machine learning methods, Deep Learning methods avoid the requirements for manual design features under traditional Machine Learning methods and show obvious effect advantages under Big Data.

jаvascript gives web developers great power to create rich interactive browser experiences, and much of that power is provided by the browser itself. Modern web APIs enable web-based applications to come to life like never before, supporting actions that once required browser plug-ins. Some are still in an experimental stage, but many are ready for use today. With this hands-on cookbook, author Joe Attardi helps you explore the powerful APIs available in modern browsers and guides you through the specific tasks that they unlock. Because these features are web standards, there is comprehensive documentation available from trusted resources such as MDN Web Docs. The knowledge you'll gain is transferable across different companies and projects. A Web API is a series of global objects and functions exposed by the browser. Your jаvascript code can use these to interact with the Document Object Model (DOM), perform network communication, integrate with native device features, and much more. This book is intended for software developers with some experience with jаvascript who want to get the most out of the web platform. It assumes that you have a good knowledge of the jаvascript language itself: syntax, language features, and standard library functions.

Data Science happens in code. The ability to write reproducible, robust, scaleable code is key to a data science project's success—and is absolutely essential for those working with production code. This practical book bridges the gap between data science and software engineering,and clearly explains how to apply the best practices from software engineering to Data Science. All the code examples in this book are written in Python, and many of the chapters describe Python-specific tools. In recent years, Python has become the most popular programming language for Data Science. Python has an extremely solid set of open source libraries for data science, with good backing and a healthy community of maintainers. Large trend-setting companies have chosen Python for their main ML frameworks, including TensorFlow (Google) and PyTorch (Meta). Because of this, Python appears to be especially popular among data scientists working on production Machine Learning code, where good coding skills are particularly important. In my experience, the Python community has been friendly and welcoming, with many excellent events that have helped me improve my skills. It’s my preferred programming language, so it was an easy choice for this book. This book is aimed at data scientists, but people working in closely related fields such as data analysts, Machine Learning (ML) engineers, and data engineers will also find it useful.

This book is for developers who are looking for an overview of basic concepts in Natural Language Processing using R. It casts a wide net of techniques to help developers who have a range of technical backgrounds. Numerous code samples and listings are included to support myriad topics. The final chapter presents the Transformer Architecture, BERT-based models, and the GPT family of models, all of which were developed during the past three years. You will be exposed to various NLP and Machine Learning topics in this book, some of which are presented in a cursory manner for two reasons. First, it’s important that you be exposed to these concepts. In some cases, you will find topics that might pique your interest, and hence motivate you to learn more about them through self-study; in other cases, you will probably be satisfied with a brief introduction. Hence, you can decide whether to delve into more detail regarding the topics in this book. Second, a full treatment of all the topics that are covered in this book would probably triple its page count, and few people are interested in reading long technical books. Hence, this book provides a decent view of the NLP and Machine Learning landscape, based on the belief that this approach will be more beneficial for readers who are experienced developers who want to learn about NLP and Machine Learning. Specifically, you will learn about the transformer architecture, the pre-trained BERT model and its variants, and features of GPT-2 and GPT-3 from OpenAI. Please note that this chapter contains Python-based code samples.

Are you having trouble learning Node.js? Struggling to create a web application using Node.js? Node.js Web Development For Beginners is the guide you need to learn Node.js quickly and in the right order. With this book, you will see and know how to develop a working web application from scratch using Node.js and Express. Each chapter explains a topic in plain English and includes practical code examples. There's also a full stack project included in this book that will give you the "experience" of building a web application using Node.js. Complete Source Code Included. Most books didn't come with the source code, leaving you discouraged and unable to follow along. I believe you need to inspect and understand every part of the code used in this book. That's why I share the source code with you, integrated at the end of each chapter. No prior knowledge of Node.js is required to get the full benefit of this book, but you do need some basic knowledge of jаvascript.
