Entropy Randomization in Machine Learning

Entropy Randomization in Machine Learning

Entropy Randomization in Machine Learning presents a new approach to machine learning—entropy randomization—to obtain optimal solutions under uncertainty (uncertain data and models of the objects under study). Randomized machine-learning procedures involve models with random parameters and maximum entropy estimates of the probability density functions of the model parameters under balance conditions with measured data. Optimality conditions are derived in the form of nonlinear equations with integral components. A new numerical random search method is developed for solving these equations in a probabilistic sense. Along with the theoretical foundations of randomized machine learning Entropy Randomization in Machine Learning considers several applications to binary classification modelling the dynamics of the Earth’s population predicting seasonal electric load fluctuations of power supply systems and forecasting the thermokarst lakes area in Western Siberia. Features • A systematic presentation of the randomized machine-learning problem: from data processing through structuring randomized models and algorithmic procedure to the solution of applications-relevant problems in different fields • Provides new numerical methods for random global optimization and computation of multidimensional integrals • A universal algorithm for randomized machine learning This book will appeal to undergraduates and postgraduates specializing in artificial intelligence and machine learning researchers and engineers involved in the development of applied machine learning systems and researchers of forecasting problems in various fields.

Green Machine Learning Protocols for Future Communication Networks

Green Machine Learning Protocols for Future Communication Networks

Machine learning has shown tremendous benefits in solving complex network problems and providing situation and parameter prediction. However heavy resources are required to process and analyze the data which can be done either offline or using edge computing but also requires heavy transmission resources to provide a timely response. The need here is to provide lightweight machine learning protocols that can process and analyze the data at run time and provide a timely and efficient response. These algorithms have grown in terms of computation and memory requirements due to the availability of large data sets. These models/algorithms also require high levels of resources such as computing memory communication and storage.

God of the Machine

God of the Machine

The God of the Machine presents an original theory of history and a bold defense of individualism as the source of moral and political progress. When it was published in 1943 Isabel Paterson's work provided fresh intellectual support for the endangered American belief in individual rights limited government and economic freedom. The crisis of today's collectivized nations would not have surprised Paterson; in The God of the Machine she had explored the reasons for collectivism's failure. Her book placed her in the vanguard of the free-enterprise movement now sweeping the world. Paterson sees the individual creative mind as the dynamo of history and respect for the individual's God-given rights as the precondition for the enormous release of energy that produced the modern world. She sees capitalist institutions as the machinery through which human energy works and government as a device properly used merely to cut off power to activities that threaten personal liberty. Paterson applies her general theory to particular issues in contemporary life such as education . social welfare and the causes of economic distress. She severely criticizes all but minimal application of government including governmental interventions that most people have long taken for granted. The God of the Machine offers a challenging perspective on the continuing worldwide debate about the nature of freedom the uses of power and the prospects of human betterment. Stephen Cox's substantial introduction to The God of the Machine is a comprehensive and enlightening account of Paterson's colorful life and work. He describes The God of the Machine as not just theory but rhapsody satire diatribe poetic narrative. Paterson's work continues to be relevant because it exposes the moral and practical failures of collectivism failures that are now almost universally acknowledged but are still far from universally understood. The book will be essential to students of American history political theory and literature.

The Writing Machine A History of the Typewriter

The Writing Machine A History of the Typewriter

First Published in 1973 The Writing Machine presents a comprehensive history of the typewriter. Michael Adler not only investigated the history of the machine but also started collecting typewriters because of the difficulty of discovering what these old machines looked like. Then he found there were other collectors all over the world who supplied him with such a wealth of data that he had eventually to limit the scope of his ‘history’. There are hundreds and hundreds of makes and models of ‘conventional’ front-stroke type bar machines with four-row keyboards but they were virtually all the same. It is the unconventional ones that are interesting and it is on these that the author concentrates. The book is amusing as well as informative and it ends with a complete catalogue of ‘unconventional’ typewriters manufactured up to the 1930s when the ‘conventional’ machine had become universal. This book is a must read for anyone interested to learn about the writing machine. | The Writing Machine A History of the Typewriter
