The Digital Revolution

Merritt, Bob

As technologists, we are constantly exploring and pushing the limits of our own disciplines, and we accept the notion that the efficiencies of new technologies are advancing at a very rapid rate. However, we rarely have time to contemplate the broader impact of these technologies as they impact and...

Databases on Modern Hardware

Ailamaki, Anastasia / Liarou, Erietta / Tözün, Pinar

Data management systems enable various influential applications from high-performance online services (e.g., social networks like Twitter and Facebook or financial markets) to big data analytics (e.g., scientific exploration, sensor networks, business intelligence). As a result, data management syst...

Intermediate Probability Theory for Biomedical Engineers

Enderle, John D. / Farden, David C. / Krause, Daniel J.

This is the second in a series of three short books on probability theory and random processes for biomedical engineers. This volume focuses on expectation, standard deviation, moments, and the characteristic function. In addition, conditional expectation, conditional moments and the conditional cha...

Graph Mining

Chakrabarti, Deepayan / Faloutsos, Christos

What does the Web look like? How can we find patterns, communities, outliers, in a social network? Which are the most central nodes in a network? These are the questions that motivate this work. Networks and graphs appear in many diverse settings, for example in social networks, computer-communicati...

Neural Network Methods in Natural Language Processing

Goldberg, Yoav

Neural networks are a family of powerful machine learning models. This book focuses on the application of neural network models to natural language data. The first half of the book (Parts I and II) covers the basics of supervised machine learning and feed-forward neural networks, the basics of worki...

Search-Based Applications

Grefenstette, Gregory / Wilber, Laura

We are poised at a major turning point in the history of information management via computers. Recent evolutions in computing, communications, and commerce are fundamentally reshaping the ways in which we humans interact with information, and generating enormous volumes of electronic data along the...

Metaphor

Veale, Tony / Shutova, Ekaterina / Klebanov, Beata Beigman

The literary imagination may take flight on the wings of metaphor, but hard-headed scientists are just as likely as doe-eyed poets to reach for a metaphor when the descriptive need arises. Metaphor is a pervasive aspect of every genre of text and every register of speech, and is as useful for descri...

Essentials of Game Theory

Leyton-Brown, Kevin / Shoham, Yoav

Game theory is the mathematical study of interaction among independent, self-interested agents. The audience for game theory has grown dramatically in recent years, and now spans disciplines as diverse as political science, biology, psychology, economics, linguistics, sociology, and computer science...

Single-Instruction Multiple-Data Execution

Hughes, Christopher J.

Having hit power limitations to even more aggressive out-of-order execution in processor cores, many architects in the past decade have turned to single-instruction-multiple-data (SIMD) execution to increase single-threaded performance. SIMD execution, or having a single instruction drive execution...

LIFELONG MACHINE LEARNING: SECOND EDITION
