Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just how much can happen to a 15 year old boy during a 48 hour period. Well quite a lot if he happens to inherit a time machine from his dying grandfather. Now if that wasn't enough he finds out that not only was his grandfather a time warrior but one of the most decorated time travellers of all time. At 4 pm his grandfather dies but by 5pm he is flying solo to meet his grandfather back in time. Very soon they have to hatch a plan so that scientists don't get their hands on the grandfather's body and find out how old his grandfather really was and how his body was rebuilt after years of fighting through the galaxy. During their adventures they meet with well known historical characters such as Michelangelo, King Arthur and a Samurai warrior called Akeda Nobuteru. Time travel can bring about some very funny situations that will bring a smile to your face. They also meet up with colourful characters such as Wormhole Willy, a tank commander in WW2, who was accidentally transported forward in time during a battle and now surfs the time continuum in a Sherman tank, frequently crashing. A loveable old rogue who ends up playing a large role in Trevor's life as his adventures continue. Trevor meets the Time Council for an apprenticeship hearing and leaves as they ask his grandfather ' you must tell us more of this Captain Kirk of the starship Enterprise'. His grandfather cautions him on the receptionist ' She's a Gamethon Trevor. They bite and I've got the scars to prove it!' Of all the girls in all the worlds Trevor has to fall in love along the way with the daughter of Akeda Nobuteru, a renowned samurai from 15th century Japan. In the words of his grandfather ....'Careful young Trevor she is 425 years older than you and she died 345 years before you were born. Just thought I would let you know. We have to keep things in perspective my boy.' This relationship sparks a feud with a young evil samurai warrior during Trevor's samurai training. The evil samurai warrior pursues Trevor through time leading to many predicaments for Trevor to deal with. How did this happen? Did someone leave the keys to a time machine in the ignition? Each day Trevor returns to his hometown of Strahan in Tasmania visiting his school, his parents and friends who begin to notice his changing appearance. Each day Trevor has actually been time travelling for some months. They see the transition of a slightly built, shy, underperforming young boy into a strong confidant young man who seems to be growing older and taller by the day. His school uniform gets tighter, his muscles firmer. He deals with the school bully in typical samurai fashion and his friends Tiffany and Snotty suspect something is going on. He then brings his new Japanese girlfriend Kimako to school. The trouble is she is from 1583. King Arthur's court is thrown into chaos when Trevor and Kimako demonstrate some martial art that suddenly turns very serious and Trevor has to decide on the life or death of a gladiator. It gets worse when Trevor takes his school friends for an unauthorised time trip and causes the evil samurai warrior to visit Strahan looking for his betrothed Japanese bride to be. If that wasn't all there is a secret agent on his tail and he is getting closer and closer. Wormhole Willy saves the day and meets someone who will change his life forever. 'Here comes Trubble', takes on a whole new meaning.

Download or read book The Elements of Statistical Learning written by Trevor Hastie and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade there has been an explosion in computation and information technology. With it have come vast amounts of data in a variety of fields such as medicine, biology, finance, and marketing. The challenge of understanding these data has led to the development of new tools in the field of statistics, and spawned new areas such as data mining, machine learning, and bioinformatics. Many of these tools have common underpinnings but are often expressed with different terminology. This book describes the important ideas in these areas in a common conceptual framework. While the approach is statistical, the emphasis is on concepts rather than mathematics. Many examples are given, with a liberal use of color graphics. It should be a valuable resource for statisticians and anyone interested in data mining in science or industry. The book’s coverage is broad, from supervised learning (prediction) to unsupervised learning. The many topics include neural networks, support vector machines, classification trees and boosting---the first comprehensive treatment of this topic in any book. This major new edition features many topics not covered in the original, including graphical models, random forests, ensemble methods, least angle regression & path algorithms for the lasso, non-negative matrix factorization, and spectral clustering. There is also a chapter on methods for “wide” data (p bigger than n), including multiple testing and false discovery rates. Trevor Hastie, Robert Tibshirani, and Jerome Friedman are professors of statistics at Stanford University. They are prominent researchers in this area: Hastie and Tibshirani developed generalized additive models and wrote a popular book of that title. Hastie co-developed much of the statistical modeling software and environment in R/S-PLUS and invented principal curves and surfaces. Tibshirani proposed the lasso and is co-author of the very successful An Introduction to the Bootstrap. Friedman is the co-inventor of many data-mining tools including CART, MARS, projection pursuit and gradient boosting.

Download or read book Choreomata written by Roberto Alonso Trillo and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-12-21 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is artificial intelligence (AI) becoming more and more expressive, or is human thought adopting more and more structures from computation? What does it mean to perform oneself through AI, or to construct one’s subjectivity through AI? How does AI continue to complicate what it means to have a body? Has the golden age of AI, especially with regards to creative applications, already ended? Choreomata: Performance and Performativity after AI is a book about performance and performativity, but more specifically, it is a book about the performance of artificiality and the performance of intelligence. Both humans and human-designed computational forces are thoroughly engaged in an entangled, mutual performance of AI. Choreomata spins up a latticework of interdisciplinary thought, pairing theoretical inquiry from philosophy, information theory, and computer science with practical case studies from visual art, dance, music, and social theory. Through cross-disciplinary proportions and a diverse roster of contributors, this book contains insights for computer scientists, social scientists, industry professionals, artists, and beyond.

Download or read book Feeding the Machine written by Mark Graham and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of Naomi Klein and Nicole Perlroth, a myth-dissolving exposé of how artificial intelligence exploits human labor, and a resounding argument for a more equitable digital future. Silicon Valley has sold us the illusion that artificial intelligence is a frictionless technology that will bring wealth and prosperity to humanity. But hidden beneath this smooth surface lies the grim reality of a precarious global workforce of millions laboring under often appalling conditions to make A.I. possible. This book presents an urgent, riveting investigation of the intricate network that maintains this exploitative system, revealing the untold truth of A.I. Based on hundreds of interviews and thousands of hours of fieldwork over more than a decade, Feeding the Machine describes the lives of the workers deliberately concealed from view, and the power structures that determine their future. It gives voice to the people whom A.I. exploits, from accomplished writers and artists to the armies of data annotators, content moderators and warehouse workers, revealing how their dangerous, low-paid labor is connected to longer histories of gendered, racialized, and colonial exploitation. A.I. is an extraction machine that feeds off humanity's collective effort and intelligence, churning through ever-larger datasets to power its algorithms. This book is a call to arms that details what we need to do to fight for a more just digital future.

Book excerpt: *A Sunday Times Top 10 Bestseller* 'What a writer he was; he could flip over a sentence so gently, and showthe underbelly in a heartbeat. His work is always quietly compassionate' Elizabeth Strout In this final collection of ten exquisite, perceptive and profound stories, William Trevor probes into the depths of the human spirit. Here we encounter a tutor and his pupil, whose lives are thrown into turmoil when they meet again years later; a young girl who discovers the mother she believed dead is alive and well; and a piano-teacher who accepts her pupil's theft in exchange for his beautiful music. These gorgeous stories - the last that Trevor wrote before his death - affirm his place as one of the world's greatest storytellers. 'Trevor is a master of both language and storytelling' Hilary Mantel 'He is one of the great short-story writers, at his best the equal of Chekhov' John Banville 'The greatest living writer of short stories in the English language' New Yorker
