Book Description
Who’s the real victim here? This tense and gripping novel explores of the consequences of cyberbullying. Late at night Tori receives a random phone call. It’s a wrong number. But the caller seems to want to talk, so she stays on the line. He asks for a single thing—one reason not to kill himself. The request plunges her into confusion. Because if this random caller actually does what he plans, he’ll be the second person connected to Tori to take his own life. And the first just might land her in jail. After her Facebook page became Exhibit A in a tragic national news story about cyberbullying, Tori can’t help but suspect the caller is a fraud. But what if he’s not? Her words alone may hold the power of life or death. With the clock ticking, Tori has little time to save a stranger—and maybe redeem herself—leading to a startling conclusion that changes everything…

Pages : 455
Book Description
Key Features - Learn generative learning approach of ML and its key differences from the discriminative learning approach. - Understand why GANs are difficult to train, and key techniques to make their training stable to get impressive results. - Implement multiple variants of GANs for solving problems such as image generation, image-to-image translation, image super- resolution and so on. Book Description Generative Adversarial Networks have become quite popular due to their wide variety of applications in the fields of Computer Vision, Digital Marketing, Creative artwork and so on. One key challenge with GANs is that they are very difficult to train. This book is a comprehensive guide that highlights the common challenges of training GANs and also provides guidelines for developing GANs in such a way that they result in stable training and high-quality results. This book also explains the generative learning approach of training ML models and its key differences from the discriminative learning approach. After covering the different generative learning approaches, this book deeps dive more into the Generative Adversarial Network and their key variants. This book takes a hands-on approach and implements multiple generative models such as Pixel CNN, VAE, GAN, DCGAN, CGAN, SGAN, InfoGAN, ACGAN, WGAN, LSGAN, WGAN-GP, Pix2Pix, CycleGAN, SRGAN, DiscoGAN, CartoonGAN, Context Encoder and so on. It also provides a detailed explanation of some advanced GAN variants such as BigGAN, PGGAN, StyleGAN and so on. This book will make you a GAN champion in no time. What will you learn - Learn about the generative learning approach of training ML models - Understand key differences of the generative learning approach from the discriminative learning approach - Learn about various generative learning approaches and key technical aspects behind them - Understand and implement the Generative Adversarial Networks in details - Learn about some key challenges faced during GAN training and two common training failure modes - Build expertise in the best practices and guidelines for developing and training stable GANs - Implement multiple variants of GANs and verify their results on your own datasets - Learn about the adversarial examples, some key applications of GANs and common evaluation strategies Who this book is for If you are a ML practitioner who wants to learn about generative learning approaches and get expertise in Generative Adversarial Networks for generating high-quality and realistic content, this book is for you. Starting from a gentle introduction to the generative learning approaches, this book takes you through different variants of GANs, explaining some key technical and intuitive aspects about them. This book provides hands-on examples of multiple GAN variants and also, explains different ways to evaluate them. It covers key applications of GANs and also, explains the adversarial examples. Table of Contents 1. Generative Learning 2. Generative Adversarial Networks 3. GAN Failure Modes 4. Deep Convolutional GANs 4(II). Into the Latent Space 5. Towards stable GANs 6. Conditional GANs 7. Better Loss functions 8. Image-to-Image Translation 9. Other GANs and experiments 9(II). Advanced Scaling of GANs 10. How to evaluate GANs? 11. Adversarial Examples 12. Impressive Applications of GANs 13. Top Research Papers

All Jayden wants is to lick her wounds, save up, and return to New York City to take the art world by storm. Instead, she gets swept up in Riverbrook’s gossip, sordid secrets, and simmering conflicts. With the help of loving relatives, a new friend with a wild beast for a pet, and the sheriff she’s so not interested in, Jayden might just make it out alive.
