Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

This is the full four-volume set of the Laws and Customs of Israel
published in 1915-1916, bound in two volumes. Based on the codes
Chayye Adam and Kizzur Shulchan 'Arukh, this Hebrew-English
compendium is an invaluable source for Judaic traditions and
customs.
This book presents an overview of the field of multimodal location
estimation. The authors' aim is to describe the research results in
this field in a unified way. The book describes fundamental methods
of acoustic, visual, textual, social graph, and metadata processing
as well as multimodal integration methods used for location
estimation. In addition, the book covers benchmark metrics and
explores the limits of the technology based on a human baseline.
The book also outlines privacy implications and discusses
directions for future research in the area.
This groundbreaking book transcends traditional machine learning
approaches by introducing information measurement methodologies
that revolutionize the field. Stemming from a UC Berkeley seminar
on experimental design for machine learning tasks, these techniques
aim to overcome the 'black box' approach of machine learning by
reducing conjectures such as magic numbers (hyper-parameters) or
model-type bias. Information-based machine learning enables data
quality measurements, a priori task complexity estimations, and
reproducible design of data science experiments. The benefits
include significant size reduction, increased explainability, and
enhanced resilience of models, all contributing to advancing the
discipline's robustness and credibility. While bridging the gap
between machine learning and disciplines such as physics,
information theory, and computer engineering, this textbook
maintains an accessible and comprehensive style, making complex
topics digestible for a broad readership. Information-Driven
Machine Learning explores the synergistic harmony among these
disciplines to enhance our understanding of data science modeling.
Instead of solely focusing on the "how," this text provides answers
to the "why" questions that permeate the field, shedding light on
the underlying principles of machine learning processes and their
practical implications. By advocating for systematic methodologies
grounded in fundamental principles, this book challenges industry
practices that have often evolved from ideologic or profit-driven
motivations. It addresses a range of topics, including deep
learning, data drift, and MLOps, using fundamental principles such
as entropy, capacity, and high dimensionality. Ideal for both
academia and industry professionals, this textbook serves as a
valuable tool for those seeking to deepen their understanding of
data science as an engineering discipline. Its thought-provoking
content stimulates intellectual curiosity and caters to readers who
desire more than just code or ready-made formulas. The text invites
readers to explore beyond conventional viewpoints, offering an
alternative perspective that promotes a big-picture view for
integrating theory with practice. Suitable for upper undergraduate
or graduate-level courses, this book can also benefit practicing
engineers and scientists in various disciplines by enhancing their
understanding of modeling and improving data measurement
effectively.
The word multimedia is often associated with specific applications
from entertainment to web design to video to music. This innovative
textbook presents emerging techniques in multimedia computing from
an experiential perspective in which each medium audio, images,
text, and so on is a strong component of the complete, integrated
exchange of information or experience. Humans are the best
functioning example of multimedia communication and computing that
is, we understand information and experiences through the unified
perspective offered by our five senses. The goal of this book is to
present current techniques in computing and communication that will
lead to the development of a unified and holistic approach to
computing using heterogeneous data sources. The authors introduce
the fundamentals of multimedia computing, describing the properties
of perceptually encoded information, presenting common algorithms
and concepts for handling it, and outlining the typical
requirements for emerging applications that use multifarious
information sources. Designed for advanced undergraduate and
beginning graduate courses, the book will also serve as an
introduction for engineers and researchers interested in
understanding the elements of multimedia and their role in building
specific applications."
Learn programming using the Commodore 16/Plus 4 system. Following
this book, you and your children will not only learn BASIC
programming, but also have fun emulating a retro Commodore system.
There are many ways to bring the fun of learning to program in the
1980s back to life. For example, downloading the VICE emulator to a
Raspberry Pi allows for the classic "turn on and program"
experience and also provides some retro computing project fun. Many
parents learned programming in this same way and can have fun
helping their children follow the same path. You can also use this
book as an opportunity to dust off your computing skills or learn
programming concepts for the first time on a system that's easy,
approachable, and fun with a nostalgic twist. Commodore computers
were the most sold computing devices before the iPhone. Nowadays,
the Commodore system can be run using freely available emulation on
modern computers. This book uses VICE, which is available for PC,
Mac, Linux, as an online app, and on the Raspberry Pi. Beginning
Programming Using Retro Computing offers simple programming
concepts to give children and adults alike a sense of wonder in
seeing that words they write have the power to do things, like play
sounds, draw graphics, or finish math homework.
