A small book that introduces key Artificial Intelligence (AI) concepts in an easy-to-read format with examples and illustrations. A complex, long, overly mathematical textbook does not always serve the purpose of conveying the basic AI concepts to most people. Someone with basic knowledge in Computer Science can have a quick overview of AI (heuristic searches, genetic algorithms, expert systems, game trees, fuzzy expert systems, natural language processing, super intelligence, etc.) with everyday examples. If you are taking a basic AI course and find the traditional AI textbooks intimidating, you may choose this as a "bridge" book, or as an introductory textbook. (This is old edition -- a new revised edition is currently available.)

Описание: Do you want to learn how ML and AI can be applied in practice and be compatible with human behavior in modern times? If yes, then keep reading...
Machine learning (ML) is a data-driven approach. Hence it implies the availability of large datasets in order to make accurate decisions. In case only a limited dataset is available to solve a particular problem, it is best to use a deterministic approach. When a limited dataset is available it is hard to train a machine learning model and generalize its applicability to other similar problems. The developed model, in this case, is only applicable for the few data it was trained on.
Because ML methods rely solely only on data and the human expertise or judgment is not taken in consideration, it is the data that dictate if the machine learning method will fail or succeed to perform the task it was designed for. The way a machine learning approach works is that a modeler develops a learning algorithm. Then the modeler feeds the learning algorithm with the data and information.
The algorithm learns by itself from the data with no guidance or human interference. It is the algorithm that builds the system. If the data provided for the algorithm is of poor quality and biased then the system is also of poor quality and biased. Hence, cleaning and acquiring the right data to solve a problem with ML problem is very crucial. If the data are biased and noisy it is better to stick with a traditional method. Otherwise, the machine learning method will memorize the noise and provide inaccurate results.
Could Turning Important Decisions over to AI help Humanity? Some might say that's a terrible idea, but how much worse is it today where we've turned over our societies and civilizations to corrupt leadership, crony capitalism, or had to deal with rogue nation-states in other parts of the world with two-bit dictators, religious fanaticism, or the quest to destroy another group of peoples' civilization? Perhaps it's time we came up with a special think tank that could go through all the issues concerning our fears, and what we hope to expect from AI decision-making machines. That is to say how to get the best possible answer, all the time with the greatest probability.
We all watched IBM's "Watson" supercomputer as it won against the top human Jeopardy players. It did pretty well, most all the time; didn't it? Yes, but it wasn't perfect, and perhaps that's the scary part. In fact, some of the mistakes that it did make were mistakes that even a child wouldn't have missed. Still, if there is a group of humans or a think tank, focus group, or Board of Directors constantly surveying the answers and asking additional questions, then perhaps you don't have to worry about an erroneous answer now and again. In fact, it might make you smile and feel good to be a human at that point.
ML is useful anywhere you need to recognize patterns and predict behavior based on historical data. Recognizing patterns could mean anything from character recognition to predictive maintenance to recommending products to customers based on past purchases.
This book gives a comprehensive guide on the following:
Correlation Between ML and Artificial Learning
The Era of Evolution
ML and AI in Practice
Self-Driving Cars
Robots and How they will Change Our Lives
ML, AI and IoT
Ethics of AI
AI and Privacy
Is Artificial Intelligence Dangerous?
Will Humans and Artificial Intelligence Live Together in the Future?
Ever wondered, the thoughts that emerge in your mind are of your own?
Or do you feel like your colleague or boss is downplaying you while they secretly take all the benefits and advantages of your hard work?
Or do you feel like it is never enough, no matter how much effort and hard work you put on in your relationship, and it is never appreciated or validated?
These questions and many others have the same root cause, which inflicts thousands of people around the world, which is 'Manipulation' and 'Mind Control.'
Ever since the dawn of civilization, people have controlled other people, on a small scale in interpersonal dialogues with peers, children, siblings, spouse, parents, teachers, boss, etc. and on a large scale where leaders, scam artists, fraudsters, politicians manipulate masses for their own means. Even in this very moment, you are being controlled by thoughts that are so rooted in your subconscious circuits of brains that you don't even notice it because you are 5% consciously aware of your brain activity, and 95% of your brain activity is unnoticeable. Your behavior, actions, emotions and choices are implicitly altered day in and day out by massive advertisements, society's standards and cultural norms.
This book elaborates on how you are being controlled by all of these strange forces, while it can also expose you to a knowledge where you can also control people but with big power comes big responsibility and only in the drastic of times take drastic measures.
Dark Psychology is real whether you believe it or choose to ignore it; it is impacting our lives and social events throughout the globe. This book will enlighten you from the little dirty tricks that people play inter-personally to mass manipulation used by mainstream media and influential politicians. This book sheds light on:
Myths and misconceptions about mind control and manipulation.
Techniques of Mind Control which ranges from
Brainwashing
Mind games
Hypnotism
Gaslighting and
Many more
Emotional intelligence and how it is used for manipulation
Media and Consumer culture manipulation
Mass manipulation by influential figures through demagogy
Herd mentality and Gullibility
Dark Triad
And much more, the book has to offer.
Don't waste any further time because time is of the essence. The early you implement the strategies enlisted in this book, the wiser you get in your life decisions without ever having a need to ask something from another person. Take full control of your life, stand up for yourself, push back the people trying to delude you, overpower you, belittle you or in more specific terms 'Manipulate You.'
Описание: Focuses on an airline`s Operations Control Centre (OCC), this serves as the nerve centre of the airline and is responsible for decision-making with respect to operational control of an airline`s daily schedules. This book examines various aspects of individual decision-making in airline operations.
Описание: Previous studies conducted within the aviation industry have examined a multitude of crucial aspects such as policy, airline service quality, and revenue management. An extensive body of literature has also recognised the importance of decision-making in aviation, with the focus predominantly on pilots and air traffic controllers. Understanding Decision-Making Processes in Airline Operations Control focuses instead on an area largely overlooked: an airline's Operations Control Centre (OCC). This serves as the nerve centre of the airline and is responsible for decision-making with respect to operational control of an airline's daily schedules. The environment within an OCC is extremely intense and a key role of controllers is to make decisions that facilitate the airline's recovery from frequent, highly complex, and often multiple disruptions. As such, decision-making in this domain is critical to minimise the operational, commercial and financial impact resulting from disruptions. The book examines many aspects of individual decision-making in airline operations, and addresses the deficiencies found by presenting to the reader an examination of the relationships among situation awareness, information completeness, experience, expertise, decision considerations and decision alternatives in OCCs. The text utilises a multiple case study approach and proposes a number of relevant and important implications for OCC management. Practical outcomes highlight the need for enhancing training programs enabling existing controllers to readily identify and classify elements of situation awareness and decision considerations as a means of improving the decision-making process. They also draw attention to the need for airline OCCs to understand the extent to which industry experience and expertise of controllers is important in the selection of future staff.
