    But as this hands-on guide demonstrates, programmers comfortable with Python can achieve impressive results in deep learning with little math background, small amounts of data, and minimal code. How? With fastai, the first library to provide a consistent interface to the most frequently used deep learning applications.Authors Jeremy Howard and Sylvain Gugger show you how to train a model on a wide range of tasks using fastai and PyTorch. You'll also dive progressively further into deep learning theory to gain a complete understanding of the algorithms behind the scenes.Train models in computer vision, natural language processing, tabular data, and collaborative filteringLearn the latest deep learning techniques that matter most in practiceImprove accuracy, speed, and reliability by understanding how deep learning models workDiscover how to turn your models into web applicationsImplement deep learning algorithms from scratchConsider the ethical implications of your work

    The simple and lucidlanguage adopted by the author has already made this publication to be highlypopular amongst the students and teachers of the various engineering colleges inIndia and abroad. It has also become the first choice of the professional fieldengineers. The student appearing for the competitive examinations, particularlythose appearing at the Engineering Services, Civil Services (IAS), and GATEexaminations, will find this book of immense utility and highlysecuring, paving their way for an excellent success in these competitions. Thetext matter has been thoroughly revised and updated in this edition, and issupported by about 500 Objective Questions and a vast number of numericalexamples, including those from the various universities and competitiveexaminations. Complete hydraulic design of a Water Treatment Plant has also beenadded in this new edition.

    With "React: Up and Running" you'll learn how to get off the ground with React, with no prior knowledge.This book teaches you how to build components, the building blocks of your apps, as well as how to organize the components into large-scale apps. In addition, you ll learn about unit testing and optimizing performance, while focusing on the application s data (and letting the UI take care of itself)."

    Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality -- the study of cause and effect -- on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of Why.

    Now in it's tenth edition, this text makes chemistry exciting to students by showing them why important concepts are relevant to their lives and future careers.

    Written by Yvette Fernandez and illustrated by Nicole Lim, Princess Lea narrates how Lea went from a six-year-old who landed a part in a local production of The King and I to an internationally renowned performer who has starred as Kim in Miss Saigon, Eponine and Fantine in Les Miserables, and Mei-Li in Flower Drum Song; won honors from the US’ Tony Awards and the UK’s Laurence Olivier Awards; and sung for six Philippine presidents, three American presidents, and the Queen of England. To encourage aspiring young entertainers to reach for their dreams, Princess Lea also lets readers in on common terms in the performing industry and imparts the lessons Lea has learned throughout her journey to becoming a singing superstar.

    Intuition and computational abilities are stressed. Original material on DE and multiple integrals has been expanded.
