What Is Augmented Analytics?
As your business tries to make sense of today's staggering amount of structured and unstructured data, traditional analytics will take you only so far. The key to success over the next few years will depend on augmented analytics, a method that embeds machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) in the process. This report explains how au
Leading Biotech Data Teams
With hundreds of startups founded each year, the relatively new field of data-focused biotech - or TechBio - is growing rapidly. But without enough experienced practitioners to go around, most organizations hire data scientists with minimal biotech experience and lab scientists who've taken a crash course in data science. This arrangement is proble
Elements of Data Science
Elements of Data Science is an introduction to the practical skills of working with data, written for people with no programming experience. Concepts are explained clearly and concisely, and exercises in each chapter demonstrate the real-world use of each feature. - Step-by-Step Approach: Learn how to execute a data science project from start to fi
AI Robotics
Artificial intelligence (AI) robots can learn from their experiences, make decisions in real time, understand natural language and human gestures, and utilize computer vision to perceive and comprehend their environments. Beginning with the rudimentary concepts of AI, AI Robotics: Ethics, Algorithms, and Technology of Artificial Intelligence-Powere
Advanced Learning Analytics Methods
This comprehensive and timely methodological book introduces several novel topics under the overarching sections of advanced learning analytics (LA), artificial intelligence (AI), precision education, and complex systems. These topics are presented using accessible language, beginning with introductory chapters that cover the fundamentals of each s
Slow Electronics with Reservoir Computing
This open access book discusses "slow electronics", the study of devices processing signals with low frequencies. Computers have the remarkable ability to process data at high speeds, but they encounter difficulties when handling signals with low frequencies of less than ~100Hz. They unexpectedly require a substantial amount of energy. This poses a
An Introduction to Matlab and Mathcad
This text is used in a mathematical software course at VMI that provides an introduction to Matlab and Mathcad. However, Troy Siemers also intends it to be a course book instead of an all inclusive resource. He encourages his students to take full advantage of the built-in help capabilities of these software packages, additional texts (he keeps a f
Seeing Theory
Statistics is quickly becoming the most important and multi-disciplinary field of mathematics. According to the American Statistical Association, statistician is one of the top ten fastest-growing occupations and statistics is one of the fastest-growing bachelor degrees. Statistical literacy is essential to our data driven society. Despite the incr
Understanding Metadata
One viable option for organizations looking to harness massive amounts of data is the data lake, a single repository for storing all the raw data, both structured and unstructured, that floods into the company. But that isn't the end of the story. The key to making a data lake work is data governance, using metadata to provide valuable context thro
