This book provides a highly practical introduction to Bayesian statistical modeling with Stan, which has become the most popular probabilistic programming language. The book is divided into four parts. The first part reviews the theoretical background of modeling and Bayesian inference and presents a modeling workflow that makes modeling more engineering than art. The second part discusses the use of Stan, CmdStanR, and CmdStanPy from the very beginning to basic regression analyses. The third part then introduces a number of probability distributions, nonlinear models, and hierarchical (multilevel) models, which are essential to mastering statistical modeling. It also describes a wide range of frequently used modeling techniques, such as censoring, outliers, missing data, speed-up, and parameter constraints, and discusses how to lead convergence of MCMC. Lastly, the fourth part examines advanced topics for real-world dаta: longitudinal data analysis, state space models, spatial data analysis, Gaussian processes, Bayesian optimization, dimensionality reduction, model selection, and information criteria, demonstrating that Stan can solve any one of these problems in as little as 30 lines.

This book provides a comprehensive explanation of precision (i.e., personalized) healthcare and explores how it can be advanced through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other data-driven technologies. From improving the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of many medical conditions to the effective implementation of precise patient care, this book will help you understand datasets produced from digital health technologies and IoT and teach you how to employ analytical methods such as convolutional neural networks and Deep Learning to analyze that data. Open-source toolkits support Machine Learning by providing accessible and ready-to-use code for common algorithms. Most are available for Python, the programming language favored for developing Machine Learning algorithms. Scikit-learn is a Python module containing image processing and Machine Learning techniques built on SciPy and enables algorithms for clustering, classification, and regression, such as naïve Bayes, decision trees, random forests, k-means, and support vector machines. NLTK, or Natural Language Toolkit, is a collection of libraries used in natural language processing (NLP).

Java Persistence with Spring Data and Hibernate explores persistence with the most popular available tools. You’ll benefit from detailed coverage of Spring Data JPA, Spring Data JDBC, Spring Data REST, JPA, and Hibernate, comparing and contrasting the alternatives so you can pick what’s best for your code. We’ll begin with a hands-on introduction to object/relational mapping (ORM) and then dive into mapping strategies for linking up objects and your database. You’ll learn about the different approaches to transactions in Hibernate and Spring Data, and even how to deliver Java persistence with non-relational databases. Finally, we’ll explore testing strategies for persistent applications to keep your code clean and bug free. This book is for application developers who are already proficient in writing Java Core code and are interested in learning how to develop applications to interact easily and effectively with databases. You should be familiar with object-oriented programming and have at least a working knowledge of Java. You will also need a working knowledge of Maven and be able to build a Maven project and open a Java program in IntelliJ IDEA, edit it, and launch it in execution. Some of the chapters require basic knowledge about technologies like Spring or REST.

Experimentation for Engineers: From A/B testing to Bayesian optimization delivers a toolbox of processes for optimizing software systems. You’ll start by learning the limits of A/B testing, and then graduate to advanced experimentation strategies that take advantage of Machine Learning and probabilistic methods. The skills you’ll master in this practical guide will help you minimize the costs of experimentation and quickly reveal which approaches and features deliver the best business results. This book is for Machine Learning engineers, quantitative traders, and software engineers looking to measure and improve the performance of whatever they’re building. Performance of the systems they build may be gauged by user behavior, revenue, speed, or similar metrics. You might already be working with an experimentation system at a tech or finance company and want to understand it more deeply. You might be planning or aspiring to work with or build such a system. Students entering industry might find that this book is an ideal introduction to industry practices. A reader should be comfortable with Python, NumPy, and undergraduate math (including basic linear algebra).

Build better React apps using hooks and forms. This book picks up where Book 1: The Basics left off. In this book, you continue discovering the ins and outs of React. The focus of this book is working with hooks and forms, as well as further understanding components and JSX. Contrary to some other ways of dealing with forms on the web, with React, forms are put into a state variable, and then React watches for any form-related event, with every such event updating the form’s state. This means that React’s sort of constantly watching your form for any changes.

The first comprehensive introduction to the origins, aspirations, and evolution of live coding. Performative, improvised, on the fly: live coding is about how people interact with the world and each other via code. In the last few decades, live coding has emerged as a dynamic creative practice gaining attention across cultural and technical fields—from music and the visual arts through to computer science. Live Coding: A User’s Manual is the first comprehensive introduction to the practice, and a broader cultural commentary on the potential for live coding to open up deeper questions about contemporary cultural production and computational culture. This multi-authored book—by artists and musicians, software designers, and researchers—provides a practice-focused account of the origins, aspirations, and evolution of live coding, including expositions from a wide range of live coding practitioners. In a more conceptual register, the authors consider liveness, temporality, and knowledge in relation to live coding, alongside speculating on the practice’s future forms.
