Digital Cities III. Information Technologies for Social Capital: Cross-cultural Perspectives
Author: Peter van den Besselaar
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540253319
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
Digital cities constitutes a multidisciplinary field of research and development, where researchers, designers and developers of communityware interact and collaborate with social scientists studying the use and effects of these kinds of infrastructures and systems in their local application context. The field is rather young. After the diffusion of ICT in the world of organizations and companies, ICT entered everyday life. And this also influenced ICT research and development. The 1998 Workshop on Communityware and Social Interaction in Kyoto was an early meeting in which this emerging field was discussed. After that, two subsequent Digital Cities workshops were organized in Kyoto, and a third one in Amsterdam. This book is the result of the 3rd Workshop on Digital Cities, which took place September 18–19, 2003 in Amsterdam, in conjunction with the 1st Communities and Technologies Conference. Most of the papers were presented at this workshop, and were revised thoroughly afterwards. Also the case studies of digital cities in Asia, the US, and Europe, included in Part I, were direct offsprings of the Digital Cities Workshops. Together the papers in this volume give an interesting state-of-the-art overview of the field. In total 54 authors from the Americas, from Asia, and from Europe were contributed to this volume. The authors come from Brazil (two), the USA (eleven), China (three), Japan (fourteen), Finland (two), Germany (two), Italy (three), Portugal (two), the Netherlands (eight), and the UK (seven), indicating the international nature of the research field.

Practical Statistics for Data Scientists
Author: Peter Bruce
Publisher: "O'Reilly Media, Inc."
ISBN: 1491952911
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
Statistical methods are a key part of of data science, yet very few data scientists have any formal statistics training. Courses and books on basic statistics rarely cover the topic from a data science perspective. This practical guide explains how to apply various statistical methods to data science, tells you how to avoid their misuse, and gives you advice on what's important and what's not. Many data science resources incorporate statistical methods but lack a deeper statistical perspective. If you’re familiar with the R programming language, and have some exposure to statistics, this quick reference bridges the gap in an accessible, readable format. With this book, you’ll learn: Why exploratory data analysis is a key preliminary step in data science How random sampling can reduce bias and yield a higher quality dataset, even with big data How the principles of experimental design yield definitive answers to questions How to use regression to estimate outcomes and detect anomalies Key classification techniques for predicting which categories a record belongs to Statistical machine learning methods that “learn” from data Unsupervised learning methods for extracting meaning from unlabeled data

The Design and Analysis of Coalesced Hashing
Author: Jeffrey Scott Vitter
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
Hashing, a commonly used technique for arranging data to facilitate rapid searches, is discussed from several different perspectives as an efficient solution to the classical problem of information storage and retrieval. The underlying theme is close cooperation between the analysis of algorithms and the computer world. To increase the work's accessibility to computer scientists, algorithms are given both in English and in a variant of the well-known language Pascal. Designed to appeal to as wide an audience as possible, this book serves both as a graduate text in analysis of algorithms and as a professional reference for computer scientists and programmers.

Data Analysis Techniques for Physical Scientists
Author: Claude A. Pruneau
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108267882
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 719
Book Description
A comprehensive guide to data analysis techniques for physical scientists, providing a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as seasoned researchers. The book begins with an extensive discussion of the foundational concepts and methods of probability and statistics under both the frequentist and Bayesian interpretations of probability. It next presents basic concepts and techniques used for measurements of particle production cross-sections, correlation functions, and particle identification. Much attention is devoted to notions of statistical and systematic errors, beginning with intuitive discussions and progressively introducing the more formal concepts of confidence intervals, credible range, and hypothesis testing. The book also includes an in-depth discussion of the methods used to unfold or correct data for instrumental effects associated with measurement and process noise as well as particle and event losses, before ending with a presentation of elementary Monte Carlo techniques.
