In hot and dusty Delhi, where call centers and malls are changing the ancient fabric of Indian life, Puri’s main work comes from screening prospective marriage partners, a job once the preserve of aunties and family priests. But when an honest public litigator is accused of murdering his maidservant, it takes all of Puri’s resources to investigate. With his team of undercover operatives—Tubelight, Flush, and Facecream—Puri combines modern techniques with principles of detection established in India more than two thousand years ago, and reveals modern India in all its seething complexity.

Download or read book Probably Approximately Correct written by Leslie Valiant and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a leading computer scientist, a unifying theory that will revolutionize our understanding of how life evolves and learns. How does life prosper in a complex and erratic world? While we know that nature follows patterns -- such as the law of gravity -- our everyday lives are beyond what known science can predict. We nevertheless muddle through even in the absence of theories of how to act. But how do we do it? In Probably Approximately Correct, computer scientist Leslie Valiant presents a masterful synthesis of learning and evolution to show how both individually and collectively we not only survive, but prosper in a world as complex as our own. The key is "probably approximately correct" algorithms, a concept Valiant developed to explain how effective behavior can be learned. The model shows that pragmatically coping with a problem can provide a satisfactory solution in the absence of any theory of the problem. After all, finding a mate does not require a theory of mating. Valiant's theory reveals the shared computational nature of evolution and learning, and sheds light on perennial questions such as nature versus nurture and the limits of artificial intelligence. Offering a powerful and elegant model that encompasses life's complexity, Probably Approximately Correct has profound implications for how we think about behavior, cognition, biological evolution, and the possibilities and limits of human and machine intelligence.

Download or read book Descriptions and Beyond written by Marga Reimer and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1905, Bertrand Russell published 'On Denoting' in which he proposed and defended a quantificational account of definite descriptions. Forty-five years later, in 'On Referring', Peter Strawson claimed that Russell was mistaken: definite descriptions do not function as quantifiers but (paradigmatically) as referring expressions. Ever since, scores of theorists have attempted to adjudicate this debate. Others have gone beyond the question of the proper analysis of definite descriptions, focusing instead on the complex relations between definites, indefinites, and pronouns. These relations are often examined with attention to the phenomena of scope and anaphora. This collection assembles nineteen new papers on definite descriptions and related topics. The contributors include both philosophers and linguists, many of whom have been active participants in the various debates concerning descriptions. The volume contains a brief general introduction and is divided into six sections, each of which is accompanied by a detailed introduction of its own. Several of the sections concern issues associated with the Russell/Strawson debate. These include the sections on incomplete descriptions, the referential/attributive distinction, and presupposition and truth value gaps. There is also a section on the representation of definites and indefinites in semantic theory, containing papers that reject certain core assumptions of the Russellian paradigm. Linguists interested in definites have traditionally been concerned with how such expressions interact with other expressions, including pronouns and indefinites. They have explored, and continue to explore, these interactions through the complex phenomena of scope and anaphora. In the section dealing with anaphoric pronouns and descriptions, indefinites and dynamic syntax/semantics, five linguists propose and defend their views on these and related issues. Finally, there is a section that concerns the relation between proper names and descriptions and, more particularly, the idea that some names, those introduced into the language by description, are semantically equivalent to definite descriptions.

Download or read book The Hilarious Adventures of Jass and Marble written by Dexter Poin and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hilarious Adventures of Jass & Marble.Fully illustrated version. 3,500 words, no front or back matter filler. I know the kids hate filler! Lets see what kind of wacky adventure Jass & Marble gets themselves into this time! The stories of Jass & Marble are based off of my two crazy and lovable dogs, that my brother and I shared for years! Sadly both dogs have passed, but not after living a long fulfilling life as 2 of the best friends a person could have. Jass was a beautiful female German Shepard, who was actually very big for a female. She was over 100 lbs and a very athletic agile dog. She was one of the smartest dogs that I have ever seen. Actually, to be quite honest, at times I would look at her and wonder if she had a little human in her! My brothers and I actually had found her on a job site. We were working a job, as we had our own small construction business. She came wondering up to us, she was just weeks old at the time. She was crazier than an outhouse rat then, and she always stayed that crazy little puppy even when she was 12 years old! Marble was another beautiful dog. He was a dark brown brindle Pitt Bull Mastiff. I know what most people are thinking. They are thinking Pitt Bull! Oh no! They are killers! Well, that can't be further from the truth. It is all in who the owner is, and how they train them. Marble was a big boy, he was well over 120 lbs of solid muscle. He was dumber than a door knob! But he was a big old lovable, slobbery lug who loved to play fetch with a basketball, which he would always pop within just a few short seconds every time he had a brand new one to play with! The hilarious Adventures of Jass & Marble are funny children's books, and are geared towards children between the ages of 2 - 6. But I tried to make them in a way that would be enjoyable for the adults to read as well. I am a big kid myself, so I can relate to a 2 year old I suppose! I hope you all enjoy this funny short story book, and look out for more hilarious adventures of Jass & Marble coming soon! Thanks! Dexter Poin

But when a potential scandal strikes, the Vanderbilts turn to cousin and society page reporter Emma Cross to solve a murder and a disappearance. . . Responding to a frantic call on her newfangled telephone from her eighteen-year-old cousin, Consuelo Vanderbilt, Emma Cross arrives at the Marble House mansion and learns the cause of her distress--Consuelo's mother, Alva, is forcing her into marriage with the Duke of Marlborough. Her mother has even called in a fortune teller to assure Consuelo of a happy future. But the future is short-lived for the fortune teller, who is found dead by her crystal ball, strangled with a silk scarf. Standing above her is one of the Vanderbilts' maids, who is promptly taken into police custody. After the frenzy has died down, Consuelo is nowhere to be found. At Alva's request, Emma must employ her sleuthing skills to determine if the vanishing Vanderbilt has eloped with the beau of her choice--or if her disappearance may be directly connected to the murder. . .
