An Introduction to Digital Video Data Compression in Java

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, safeguarding critical data and systems has never been more vital—or more challenging. Systematic Security: A CISO’s Playbook by Timur Qader offers a groundbreaking guide to building a resilient and scalable security practice from the ground up. Blending real-world experience with practical insights, this book lays out a phased approach to security implementation.Timur begins with describing the current state of security and the landscape security professionals find themselves in that offer both opportunity and risk. He goes on to systematically address strategic design, operational efficiency, risk-based modeling, and a rapidly growing regulatory landscape. This essential resource provides step-by-step strategies for implementing a comprehensive security framework. Whether you''re launching a new security program or transforming an existing one, this book delivers actionable insights on governance, compliance, and advanced security operati

Designed as a textbook for a one or two-term introduction to mathematical statistics for students training to become data scientists, Foundations of Statistics for Data Scientists: With R and Python is an in-depth presentation of the topics in statistical science with which any data scientist should be familiar, including probability distributions, descriptive and inferential statistical methods, and linear modelling. The book assumes knowledge of basic calculus, so the presentation can focus on 'why it works' as well as 'how to do it.' Compared to traditional "mathematical statistics" textbooks, however, the book has less emphasis on probability theory and more emphasis on using software to implement statistical methods and to conduct simulations to illustrate key concepts. All statistical analyses in the book use R software, with an appendix showing the same analyses with Python.The book also introduces modern topics that do not normally appear in mathematical statistics texts but ar

The second edition of this easy-to-understand pocket guide remains an invaluable tool for students, assistant practitioners and radiographers. Providing an accessible introduction to the subject in a reader-friendly format, it includes diagrams and photographs to support the text. Each chapter provides clear learning objectives and a series of MCQs to test reader assimilation of the material.The book opens with overviews of image production, basic mathematics and imaging physics, followed by detailed chapters on the physics relevant to producing diagnostic images using X-rays and digital technologies. The content has been updated throughout and includes a new chapter on CT imaging and additional material on radioactivity, dosimetry, and imaging display and manipulation. Clark's Essential Physics in Imaging for Radiographers supports students in demonstrating an understanding of the fundamental definitions of physics applied to radiography ...all you need to know to pass your exams!
