How we reason about the continuous world around us is one of the central mysteries of cognitive science. This book is based on multiple de­cades of research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) on qualitative reasoning by my group but also by many ­others. Most of the qualitative reasoning lit­er­a­ture assumes a strong Artificial Intelligence background, which is a shame ­because I believe it is extremely relevant across cognitive science. This book is my attempt to bridge that gap, to make accessible the insights and ideas that qualitative reasoning research has come up with to a broad audience of cognitive scientists. I hope it ­will also help AI scientists and engineers better understand the connection between AI and the other branches of cognitive science, because gaining insights across disciplines is why cognitive science exists in the first place.

Статистический анализ широко распространен в социальных науках, и среди наиболее популярных программ - R. Эта книга представляет собой основу для студентов и аспирантов в области социальных наук о том, как использовать язык программирования R для управления, визуализации и анализа данных. Основное внимание уделяется тому, как решать существенные вопросы с помощью анализа данных и тиражировать опубликованные результаты. Книга "Использование R для анализа данных в социальных науках" использует минималистский подход и охватывает только самые важные функции и навыки в R для проведения воспроизводимых исследований. Она подчеркивает практические потребности учащихся, использующих R, показывая, как импортировать, проверять и управлять данными, понимать логику статистического вывода, визуализировать данные и результаты с помощью гистограмм, коробочных диаграмм, диаграмм рассеяния и диагностических диаграмм, а также анализировать данные

Computers are so common and affect our lives in so many ways that it’s easy to feel like they control us. In fact, we control them. Or, we do if we know how. That’s what computer programming is all аbout: taking command of the most powerful machines ever invented. And among the programming languages designed to get computers to do what we want, C++ ranks as one of the most efficient, effective, and popular. In 24 half-hour lectures, Introduction to C++: Programming Concepts and Applications instructs you how to use this celebrated tool, which is well suited to an impressive range of coding projects. Taught by award-winning Professor John Keyser of Texas A&M University, the course quickly moves from basic principles to more advanced concepts in coding, but anyone curious about how software works will find it a practical guide to computer literacy.

Learn how to use Oracle`s jаvascript Extension Toolkit (JET) as a solution to the all too common problem of internal back office and intranet applications that are typically ugly, clunky, and cumbersome to use. JET simultaneously provides you with a jаvascript toolkit that is cutting-edge while being stable enough for enterprise development in an ecosystem that is notorious for its fast-paced rate of change. Practical Oracle JET walks through the process of developing a functional application using Oracle JET. By the end of this book you will have built a support ticket system using a variety of different components bundled with the toolkit, including lists, inputs, and visualizations. The skills acquired from reading this book and working the examples equip you to build your own applications and take your understanding even further to more advanced topics.

Get the most out of this foundational reference and improve the productivity of your software teams. This book collects the wisdom of the 2017 "Dagstuhl" seminar on productivity in software engineering, a meeting of community leaders, who came together with the goal of rethinking traditional definitions and measures of productivity. The results of their work, Rethinking Productivity in Software Engineering, includes chapters covering definitions and core concepts related to productivity, guidelines for measuring productivity in specific contexts, best practices and pitfalls, and theories and open questions on productivity. You`ll benefit from the many short chapters, each offering a focused discussion on one aspect of productivity in software engineering.

The text covers important algorithm design techniques, such as greedy algorithms, dynamic programming, and divide-and-conquer, and gives applications to contemporary problems. Techniques including Fast Fourier transform, KMP algorithm for string matching, CYK algorithm for context free parsing and gradient descent for convex function minimization are discussed in detail. The book's emphasis is on computational models and their effect on algorithm design. It gives insights into algorithm design techniques in parallel, streaming and memory hierarchy computational models. The book also emphasizes the role of randomization in algorithm design, and gives numerous applications ranging from data-structures such as skip-lists to dimensionality reduction methods.

The risk of counterparty default in banking, insurance, institutional, and pension-fund portfolios is an area of ongoing and increasing importance for finance practitioners. It is, unfortunately, a topic with a high degree of technical complexity. Addressing this challenge, this book provides a comprehensive and attainable mathematical and statistical discussion of a broad range of existing default-risk models. Model description and derivation, however, is only part of the story. Through use of exhaustive practical examples and extensive code illustrations in the Python programming language, this work also explicitly shows the reader how these models are implemented.
