Entering the field of artificial intelligence and data science can seem daunting to beginners with little to no prior background, especially those with no programming experience. The concepts used in self-driving cars and virtual assistants like Amazon's Alexa may seem very complex and difficult to grasp. The aim of Artificial Intelligence in Python is to make AI accessible and easy to understand for people with little to no programming experience though practical exercises. Newcomers will gain the necessary knowledge on how to create such systems, which are capable of executing tasks that require some form of human-like intelligence. This book introduces readers to various topics and examples of programming in Python, as well as key concepts in artificial intelligence. Python programming skills will be imparted as we go along. Concepts and code snippets will be covered in a step-by-step manner, to guide and instill confidence in beginners. Complex subjects in deep learning and machine learning will be broken down into easy-to-digest content and examples. Artificial intelligence implementations will also be shared, allowing beginners to generate their own artificial intelligence algorithms for reinforcement learning, style transfer, chatbots, speech, and natural language processing.

Convolutional Neural Networks for Medical Applications consists of research investigated by the author, containing state-of-the-art knowledge, authored by Dr Teoh Teik Toe, in applying Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to the medical imagery domain. This book will expose researchers to various applications and techniques applied with deep learning on medical images, as well as unique techniques to enhance the performance of these networks.Through the various chapters and topics covered, this book provides knowledge about the fundamentals of deep learning to a common reader while allowing a research scholar to identify some futuristic problem areas. The topics covered include brain tumor classification, pneumonia image classification, white blood cell classification, skin cancer classification and diabetic retinopathy detection. The first chapter will begin by introducing various topics used in training CNNs to help readers with common concepts covered across the book. Each chapter begins by providing information about the disease, its implications to the affected and how the use of CNNs can help to tackle issues faced in healthcare. Readers would be exposed to various performance enhancement techniques, which have been tried and tested successfully, such as specific data augmentations and image processing techniques utilized to improve the accuracy of the models.
