Название: Programming Big Data Applications: Scalable Tools and Frameworks for Your Needs Автор: Domenico Talia, Paolo Trunfio, Fabrizio Marozzo, Loris Belcastro Издательство: World Scientific Publishing Год: 2024 Страниц: 296 Язык: английский Формат: pdf (true) Размер: 11.3 MB
In the age of the Internet of Things and social media platforms, huge amounts of digital data are generated by and collected from many sources, including sensors, mobile devices, wearable trackers and security cameras. These data, commonly referred to as Big Data, are challenging current storage, processing and analysis capabilities. New models, languages, systems and algorithms continue to be developed to effectively collect, store, analyze and learn from Big Data. Programming Big Data Applications introduces and discusses models, programming frameworks and algorithms to process and analyze large amounts of data. In particular, the book provides an in-depth description of the properties and mechanisms of the main programming paradigms for Big Data analysis, including MapReduce, workflow, BSP, message passing, and SQL-like. Through programming examples it also describes the most used frameworks for Big Data analysis like Hadoop, Spark, MPI, Hive and Storm. Each of the different systems is discussed and compared, highlighting their main features, their diffusion (both within their community of developers and among users), and their main advantages and disadvantages in implementing Big Data analysis applications. This book describes and reviews parallel and distributed paradigms, languages, and systems used today to analyze and learn from Big Data on scalable computers. In particular, the book provides a detailed description of the properties and mechanisms of the main parallel programming paradigms, and through programming examples, it illustrates the most widely used frameworks for Big Data analysis. The final goal of this volume is to help designers and developers in programming Big Data applications by identifying and selecting the best or most appropriate programming tool(s) based on their skills, hardware availability, application domains, and purposes, while also considering the support provided by the developer community. |

Название: Graph Algorithms the Fun Way: Powerful Algorithms Decoded, Not Oversimplified Автор: Jeremy Kubica Издательство: No Starch Press Год: 2025 Страниц: 416 Язык: английский Формат: epub (true) Размер: 29.8 MB
Graph Algorithms the Fun Way offers a refreshing approach to complex concepts by blending humor, imaginative examples, and practical Python implementations to reveal the power and versatility of graph-based problem-solving in the real world. Through clear diagrams, engaging examples, and Python code, you’ll build a solid foundation for addressing graph problems in your own projects. This book is an introduction to graphs and their algorithms for programmers who want to understand and apply them. Graphs are a type of data structure used throughout mathematics, Computer Science, and numerous other fields to model and solve a wide range of real-world problems. The structure of a graph allows us to represent connections or associations between items. Understanding this structure is critical to harnessing the power of graphs and using them efficiently. This book is for programmers who want to learn more about graphs, graph algorithms, and the computational thinking behind such techniques. I assume no prior knowledge of graphs or graph algorithms. However, readers should have the kind of basic familiarity with Python that can be expected after an introductory course, book, or boot camp. They should be familiar with fundamental Python programming concepts, including basic data structures such as lists and dictionaries. |

Название: AI Snake Oil: What Artificial Intelligence Can Do, What It Can't, and How to Tell the Difference Автор: Arvind Narayanan, Sayash Kapoor Издательство: Princeton University Press Год: 2024 Страниц: 360 Язык: английский Формат: epub (true) Размер: 14.1 MB
From two of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People in AI, what you need to know about AI—and how to defend yourself against bogus AI claims and products. Confused about Artificial Intelligence (AI) and worried about what it means for your future and the future of the world? You’re not alone. AI is everywhere—and few things are surrounded by so much hype, misinformation, and misunderstanding. In AI Snake Oil, computer scientists Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor cut through the confusion to give you an essential understanding of how AI works and why it often doesn’t, where it might be useful or harmful, and when you should suspect that companies are using AI hype to sell AI snake oil—products that don’t work, and probably never will. While acknowledging the potential of some AI, such as ChatGPT, AI Snake Oil uncovers rampant misleading claims about the capabilities of AI and describes the serious harms AI is already causing in how it’s being built, marketed, and used in areas such as education, medicine, hiring, banking, insurance, and criminal justice. The book explains the crucial differences between types of AI, why organizations are falling for AI snake oil, why AI can’t fix social media, why AI isn’t an existential risk, and why we should be far more worried about what people will do with AI than about anything AI will do on its own. The book also warns of the dangers of a world where AI continues to be controlled by largely unaccountable big tech companies. By revealing AI’s limits and real risks, AI Snake Oil will help you make better decisions about whether and how to use AI at work and home. |

Название: Agents in the Long Game of AI: Computational Cognitive Modeling for Trustworthy, Hybrid AI Автор: Marjorie McShane, Sergei Nirenburg, Jesse English Издательство: The MIT Press Год: 2024 Страниц: 337 Язык: английский Формат: pdf (true), epub Размер: 10.1 MB
A novel approach to hybrid AI aimed at developing trustworthy agent collaborators. The vast majority of current AI relies wholly on Machine Learning (ML). However, the past thirty years of effort in this paradigm have shown that, despite the many things that ML can achieve, it is not an all-purpose solution to building human-like intelligent systems. One hope for overcoming this limitation is hybrid AI: that is, AI that combines ML with knowledge-based processing. In Agents in the Long Game of AI, Marjorie McShane, Sergei Nirenburg, and Jesse English present recent advances in hybrid AI with special emphases on content-centric computational cognitive modeling, explainability, and development methodologies. At present, hybridization typically involves sprinkling knowledge into an ML black box. The authors, by contrast, argue that hybridization will be best achieved in the opposite way: by building agents within a cognitive architecture and then integrating judiciously selected ML results. This approach leverages the power of ML without sacrificing the kind of explainability that will foster society’s trust in AI. This book shows how we can develop trustworthy agent collaborators of a type not being addressed by the “ML alone” or “ML sprinkled by knowledge” paradigms—and why it is imperative to do so. |
