Master alternative Big Data technologies that can do what Hadoop can't: real-time analytics and iterative machine learning. When most technical professionals think of Big Data analytics today, th

This book delves into the design and implementation of IoT applications, showing how data analytics, machine learning, and AI enhance IoT efficiency and innovation. With a focus on automation, decision-making, and connectivity, it tackles challenges in various domains including healthcare, agriculture, and industrial automation.

A proposal that we think about digital technologies such as machine learning not in terms of artificial intelligence but as artificial communication.Algorithms that work with deep learning and big data are getting so much better at doing so many things that it makes us uncomfortable. How can a device know what our favorite songs are, or what we should write in an email? Have machines become too smart? In Artificial Communication, Elena Esposito argues that drawing this sort of analogy between algorithms and human intelligence is misleading. If machines contribute to social intelligence, it will not be because they have learned how to think like us but because we have learned how to communicate with them. Esposito proposes that we think of “smart” machines not in terms of artificial intelligence but in terms of artificial communication.To do this, we need a concept of communication that can take into account the possibility that a communication partner may be not a human being but an al

Confessions of an AI Brain, Second Edition invites readers to not only to understand how AI works, but to imagine, question, and actively shape the kind of AI-enabled future they want to build. By framing AI as a narrator, the book ventures inside the mind of MIRANDA, a fictional yet technically grounded AI brain that narrates its own coming-of-age in a world saturated with algorithms, data, and digital infrastructure. Blending clear explanations with an engaging first-person voice, the book demystifies how modern AI systems are built, trained, deployed, and governed--without assuming any mathematical or programming background. Along the way, MIRANDA reflects on topics such as learning from data, bias and fairness, neurosymbolic reasoning, agentic AI, foundation models, digital twins, and the infrastructure that makes intelligent services possible.Rather than treating AI as a black box or distant threat, the narrative frames it as a partner in a shared human-machine ecosystem, explorin

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a . . . pancake? Our favorite syrupy superhero returns in a new graphic novel to face Breakfast Town’s new supervillain and take down her terrible mind control machine . . . before it takes over the entire town!When we last saw our hero, Peggy Pancake, she was learning to be more responsible by babysitting five mini muffins and rescuing Breakfast Town from a Mini Mega Laser of Doom disaster.

The Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Trust turns to the future with a novel that examines the place of technology in the American imaginationCenturies from now, at the dawn of a historical epoch filled with both uncertainty and promise, an orphan is adrift in a city on the brink of a great transformation. The state has been dismantled, and humans are reinventing social bonds and learning new ways to coexist with nature. Following a childhood defined by loss, survival, and found family, the orphan grows up to become a “pincher,” someone who steals electricity from the grid to sell it on the black market. It’s a high-risk life, one that brings her into a rich downtown art and music scene where she powers underground concerts. It also leads her to a colossal scientific invention that could be either a contraption devised by a deranged mind or a machine that will change the very fabric of reality.After rewriting America’s past with his two previous novels, Hernan Diaz now gives us a glimps
