This textbook integrates GIS, spatial analysis, and computational methods for solving real-world problems in various policy-relevant social science applications. Thoroughly updated, the third edition showcases the best practices of computational spatial social science and includes numerous case studies with step-by-step instructions in ArcGIS Pro and open-source platform KNIME. Readers sharpen their GIS skills by applying GIS techniques in detecting crime hotspots, measuring accessibility of primary care physicians, forecasting the impact of hospital closures on local community, or siting the best locations for business. Google launched the Google Maps API, a javascript API, to allow customization of online maps in 2005. The Google Maps API enables one to estimate the travel time without reloading the web page or displaying portions of the map. An earlier version of the Python program was developed to use the Google Maps API for computing an OD travel time matrix.

Most people are increasingly confronted with the applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Music or video ratings, navigation systems, shopping advice, etc. are based on methods that can be attributed to this field. In this book, several different systems will be used to get to know the methods of machine learning in more detail. In addition to the PC, both the Raspberry Pi and the Maixduino will demonstrate their capabilities in the individual projects. In addition to applications such as object and facial recognition, practical systems such as bottle detectors, person counters, or a “talking eye” will also be created. Deep-learning frameworks such as TensorFlow or Theano can also be integrated into Python quite easily using KERAS.

This book serves as the very first step to for novices to learn Python programming. The book is divided into ten chapters. In the first chapter, readers are introduced to the basics of Python. It has the detailed instructions for installation on various platforms such as macOS, Windows, FreeBSD, and Linux. It also covers the other aspects of Python programming such as IDEs and Package Manager. The second chapter is where the readers get an opportunity to have a detailed hands-on with Python programming. It covers a group of built-in data structures popularly known as Python Collections. The third chapter covers the important concepts of strings, functions, and recursion. The fourth chapter focuses on the Object-Oriented Programming with Python.

Welcome to version 9.0 of Introduction to Programming Using Java, a textbook for introductory programming that uses Java as the language of instruction. This book is directed mainly towards beginning programmers, although it might also be useful for experienced programmers who want to learn something about Java. Version 9 covers Java 17. There are no prerequisites beyond a general familiarity with the ideas of computers and programs. There is more than enough material for a full year of college-level programming. Chapters 1 through 7 can be used as a textbook in a one-semester college-level course or in a year-long high school course. The remaining chapters can be covered in a second course.

In less than 100 pages, Modeling Mindsets elucidates the worldviews behind various statistical modeling and Machine Learning mindsets. Most books on modeling dive straight into the math and methodologies, leaving readers struggling to grasp the underlying assumptions and limitations. Written in a clear and concise style, Modeling Mindsets introduces approaches such as Bayesian inference, supervised learning, causal inference, and more. With this book, you'll gain a deeper understanding of different modeling techniques, empowering you to choose the right one for your problem. Machine Learning (ML) is the branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that deals with improving at a given task through “experience,” which means learning from data.

This textbook offers the knowledge and the mathematical background or techniques that are required to implement encryption/decryption algorithms or security techniques. It also provides the information on the cryptography and a cryptosystem used by organizations and applications to protect their data and users can explore classical and modern cryptography. The first two chapters are dedicated to the basics of cryptography and emphasize on modern cryptography concepts and algorithms. Cryptography terminologies such as encryption, decryption, cryptology, cryptanalysis and keys and key types included at the beginning of this textbook. The subsequent chapters cover basic phenomenon of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography with examples including the function of symmetric key encryption of websites and asymmetric key use cases. This would include security measures for websites, emails, and other types of encryptions that demand key exchange over a public network. Cryptography algorithms (Caesar cipher, Hill cipher, Playfair cipher, Vigenere cipher, DES, AES, IDEA, TEA, CAST, etc.) which are varies on algorithmic criteria like- scalability, flexibility, architecture, security, limitations in terms of attacks of adversary. They are the core consideration on which all algorithms differs and applicable as per application environment.

From the start of life, people used their brains to make something better in design in ordinary works. Due to that, metaheuristics are essential to living things, and several inspirations from life have been used in the generation of new algorithms. These algorithms have unique features, but the usage of different features of different algorithms may give more effective optimum results in means of precision in optimum results, computational effort, and convergence. This book includes reviews and applications of hybrid metaheuristic algorithms and Machine Learning used in structural engineering. It contains 14 chapters including an overview and introduction. 14 of 13 chapters are presented in two parts, namely, Part I: Hybrid Metaheuristics and Part II: Machine Learning. In Part I, a review and seven structural engineering applications including reinforced concrete, truss structures, tuned mass damper, composite structures, and dam structures are given. In Part II, two reviews and four Machine Learning applications about structural engineering problems, reinforced concrete, and building information modeling are given.

Often, software engineers and architects work with large, complex code bases that they need to scale and maintain. With this cookbook, author Maximiliano Contieri takes you beyond the concept of clean code by showing you how to identify improvement opportunities and their impact on production code. When it comes to reliability and system evolution, these techniques provide benefits that pay off over time. Using real life examples in javascript, PHP, Java, Python, and many other programming languages, this cookbook provides proven recipes to help you scale and maintain large systems. Every section covers fundamental concepts including readability, coupling, testability, and extensibility, as well as code smells—symptoms of a problem that requires special attention—and the recipes to address them. A code smell is a symptom of a problem. People tend to think the presence of code smells is proof that the whole entity needs to be taken apart and rebuilt.
