Drawing on a wide and rich array of sources, this book explores the
nature and extent of Dutch trade and commerce in the Rio de la
Plata during three decades of the least-studied century (1650-1750)
of Spain's rule in the Americas. In doing so, it raises important
questions about trade in colonial South America and how it was
impacted by the Dutch, suggesting that these transactions were
carried out within the confines of the law, contradicting common
beliefs among scholars that this trading was not regulated. The
book contributes to a growing literature on contraband trade,
administration, networks, and corruption while challenging
narratives of exclusively Spanish influence on the Americas.
Can machine learning techniques solve our computer security
problems and finally put an end to the cat-and-mouse game between
attackers and defenders? Or is this hope merely hype? Now you can
dive into the science and answer this question for yourself. With
this practical guide, you’ll explore ways to apply machine
learning to security issues such as intrusion detection, malware
classification, and network analysis. Machine learning and security
specialists Clarence Chio and David Freeman provide a framework for
discussing the marriage of these two fields, as well as a toolkit
of machine-learning algorithms that you can apply to an array of
security problems. This book is ideal for security engineers and
data scientists alike. Learn how machine learning has contributed
to the success of modern spam filters Quickly detect anomalies,
including breaches, fraud, and impending system failure Conduct
malware analysis by extracting useful information from computer
binaries Uncover attackers within the network by finding patterns
inside datasets Examine how attackers exploit consumer-facing
websites and app functionality Translate your machine learning
algorithms from the lab to production Understand the threat
attackers pose to machine learning solutions

"In this clearly written volume, Hawke provides enlightening and colorful descriptions of early Colonial Americans and debunks many widely held assumptions about 17th century settlers."--Publishers Weekly
This beautifully illustrated anthology celebrates eighty years
of history and intellectual inquiry at the Institute for Advanced
Study, one of the world's leading centers for theoretical research.
Featuring essays by current and former faculty and members along
with photographs by Serge J-F. Levy, the book captures the spirit
of curiosity, freedom, and comradeship that is a hallmark of this
unique community of scholars.
Founded in 1930 in Princeton, New Jersey, the institute
encourages and supports fundamental research in the sciences and
humanities--the original, often speculative thinking that can
transform how we understand our world. Albert Einstein was among
the first in a long line of brilliant thinkers to be affiliated
with the institute. They include Kurt Godel, George Kennan, J.
Robert Oppenheimer, Erwin Panofsky, Homer A. Thompson, John von
Neumann, and Hermann Weyl. This volume offers an intimate portrait
in words and images of a storied institution that might best be
described as a true academic village. The personal reflections
collected here--written by leading figures from across the
disciplines--bring this exceptional academic institution and its
history vibrantly to life.
The contributors to this anthology are Michael Atiyah, Chantal
David, Freeman Dyson, Jane F. Fulcher, Peter Goddard, Barbara
Kowalzig, Wolf Lepenies, Paul Moravec, Joan Wallach Scott, and
David H. Weinberg."
Over the past decade, the hospitalist model has become a dominant
system for the delivery of inpatient care. Forces such as national
mandates to improve safety and quality, and intense pressure to
safely reduce length of hospital stays, are now exerting pressure
on neurologists. To meet these challenges, a new neurohospitalist
model is emerging. This is the first authoritative text to detail
the advances and strategies for treating neurologic disease in a
hospital setting. It includes chapters on specific acute neurologic
diseases including stroke, epilepsy, neuromuscular disease and
traumatic brain injury and also addresses common reasons for
neurologic consultation in the hospital including encephalopathy,
electrolyte disturbances and neurologic complications of pregnancy.
Ethical and structural issues commonly encountered in neurologic
inpatients are also addressed. This will be a key resource for any
clinician or trainee caring for neurologic patients in the hospital
including practising neurologists, internists and trainees across
multiple subspecialities.
