We often hear that AI is revolutionising the financial sector, like no other technology has done before. This book looks beyond these cliches and explores all aspects of this transformation at a deep level. It spells out a vision for the future and answers many questions that are routinely ignored. What do we mean by Artificial Intelligence in finance? How do we move past the myths and misconceptions to reveal the key driving forces? The book is packed with concrete examples from the various disciplines of finance. Interested readers will also develop a deep understanding of AI algorithms - presented in plain English - and learn how to solve the most challenging problems. But first and foremost, it is a practical book that equips finance executives with everything they need to understand this transformation and to become agents of change themselves.

Generate CUDA code for NVIDIA GPUs. GPU Coder generates optimized CUDA code from MATLAB code and Simulink models. The generated code includes CUDA kernels for parallelizable parts of your Deep Learning (DL), embedded vision, and signal processing algorithms. For high performance, the generated code calls optimized NVIDIA CUDA libraries, including TensorRT, cuDNN, cuFFT, cuSolver, and cuBLAS. The code can be integrated into your project as source code, static libraries, or dynamic libraries, and it can be compiled for desktops, servers, and GPUs embedded on NVIDIA Jetson, NVIDIA DRIVE, and other platforms. You can use the generated CUDA within MATLAB to accelerate Deep Learning networks and other computationally intensive portions of your algorithm. GPU Coder lets you incorporate handwritten CUDA code into your algorithms and into the generated code.

Domain-specific languages are custom text or graphical interfaces that allow domain experts to create and modify their own software systems. With a syntax that's clear and familiar to the non-technical user, DSLs are precise enough to generate working software in traditional code with. Written for developers who need to create user-facing DSLs, Domain-Specific Languages Made Easy unlocks clear and practical methods to create DSLs with easy-to-use interfaces. By working through a detailed example of a car rental company, you'll see how creating a custom DSL can get rid of time-consuming and bureaucratic code adjustments, freeing you up to work on features whilst your clients and colleagues write their software themselves!
