“Written with grace and intelligence, researched with care. . . . Sure to inspire a new generation of pioneers.” ―Shelf Awareness (starred review)This illuminating biography reveals how the daughter of Lord Byron, Britain’s most infamous Romantic poet, became the world’s first computer programmer.Even by 1800s standards, Ada Byron Lovelace had an unusual upbringing. Her strict mother worked hard at cultivating her own role as the long-suffering ex-wife of bad-boy poet Lord Byron while raising Ada in isolation. Tutored by the brightest minds, Ada developed a hunger for mental puzzles, mathematical conundrums, and scientific discovery that kept pace with the breathtaking advances of the industrial and social revolutions taking place in Europe. At seventeen, Ada met eccentric inventor Charles Babbage, a kindred spirit. Their ensuing collaborations resulted in ideas and concepts that presaged computer programming by almost two hundred years, and Ada Lovelace is now recognized as a pioneer

This brand-new series highlights some of the major contributions women have made in the world of science.Did you know that the technology behind cell phones was based on an idea developed during World War II by the Hollywood star Heddy Lamar to prevent the enemy intercepting radio messages? The computer and other electronic devices have changed life dramatically over the last 70 years―and many of the key breakthroughs in technology were made by women. These women’s achievements were often highly specialized and have been widely overlooked. This book tells their stories and describes their vital contributions.

Linear Algebra is an important basic theory course in the teaching plan of higher engineering schools. It is a mathematical tool widely used in all fields of natural science and engineering technology. With the rapid development of modern science and technology and the extensive application of computer, the importance of Linear Algebra in theory and application is more prominent. This puts forward higher request to the Linear Algebra teaching content from the depth and the breadth.Linear Algebra is given priority to in order to discuss the finite dimensional linear space theory courses, with strong abstractness and logical. Since the application of Linear Algebra has gone deep into the fields of natural science, social science, engineering technology, economy, management and so on. Therefore, of course, Linear Algebra should be combined with simple discretization methods, it should be co

This book provides a comprehensive foundation of machine learning. To answer the questions of what to learn, how to learn, what to get from learning, and how to evaluate, as well as what is meant by learning, the book focuses on the fundamental basics of machine learning, its methodology, theory, algorithms, and evaluations, together with some philosophical thinking on comparison between machine learning and human learning for machinery intelligence.The book is organized as follows: Introduction (Chapter 1), Evaluation (Chapter 2), Supervised learning (Chapters 3, 4, and 5), Unsupervised learning (Chapter 6), Representation learning (Chapter 7), Problem decomposition (Chapter 8), Ensemble learning (Chapter 9), Deep learning (Chapter 10), Application (Chapter 11), and Challenges (Chapter 12).The book can be used as a textbook for college, undergraduate, graduate and PhD students majored in computer science, automation, electronic engineering, communication, ect.
