Biological Pattern Discovery With R: Machine Learning Approaches (Hardcover): Zheng Rong Yang Biological Pattern Discovery With R: Machine Learning Approaches (Hardcover)
Zheng Rong Yang
R3,844 Discovery Miles 38 440 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book provides the research directions for new or junior researchers who are going to use machine learning approaches for biological pattern discovery. The book was written based on the research experience of the author's several research projects in collaboration with biologists worldwide. The chapters are organised to address individual biological pattern discovery problems. For each subject, the research methodologies and the machine learning algorithms which can be employed are introduced and compared. Importantly, each chapter was written with the aim to help the readers to transfer their knowledge in theory to practical implementation smoothly. Therefore, the R programming environment was used for each subject in the chapters. The author hopes that this book can inspire new or junior researchers' interest in biological pattern discovery using machine learning algorithms.

Artificial Intelligence with Python (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022): Teik Toe Teoh, Zheng Rong Artificial Intelligence with Python (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2022)
Teik Toe Teoh, Zheng Rong
R1,832 R1,095 Discovery Miles 10 950 Save R737 (40%) Ships in 12 - 19 working days

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.

R1,237 Discovery Miles 12 370 Ships in 9 - 17 working days

Social Perspective is a course set over one academic year for intermediate learners of Chinese. In two volumes, it focuses on developing learners' language competency to a high advanced plus/advanced level (ACTFL/CEFR B2-C1) through exploring social issues in contemporary China. The textbook draws upon the discussion of a wide range of current social issues in China to provide students with a real-life background to increase their debating and written skills. Volume I explores five topics: gender equality, e-commerce, Internet culture, food and health, and environmental protection. The textbook is written in fluent, accurate and high-quality Chinese language which is conveniently broken down to highlight all the important language elements (expressions, vocabulary, phrases and grammar). This course will equip students with language production capability at an advanced level and prepare students for the transition from academic study to employment. Each lesson includes a wide range of language drills and exercises designed to quickly improve learners' oral expression and conceptual understanding through group discussions, essays, presentations, bidirectional translation and critical reflection. Online resources such as audio recordings, dictation exercises and supplementary reading material are also included. Written by a team of highly experienced teachers, Social Perspective is the ideal course to progress intermediate students to an advanced level. Academics and researchers with an interest in Chinese contemporary social issues will also find this a useful tool for further language study.

Collaboration, Learning and Innovation Across Outsourced Services Value Networks - Software Services Outsourcing in China... Collaboration, Learning and Innovation Across Outsourced Services Value Networks - Software Services Outsourcing in China (Paperback, 2014 ed.)
Pamela Abbott, Yingqin Zheng, Rong Du
R1,665 Discovery Miles 16 650 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book collects and reports on the results of a study conducted on the Chinese Software and Services Outsourcing (SSO) industry, focusing on one of its main players as a key case study. Two sets of research findings are presented: first, the knowledge management and communication processes inherent within a highly collaborative software development project between the case study company and one of its long-term UK clients are explored and distilled into specific practices; second, at the organizational level, the strategies used by the company to build and exploit capabilities and to dynamically configure resources to promote specific value positions along its outsourced services value networks are identified and discussed. The significance of these findings for similar China-based global high-tech firms and the value of this organizational form in moving closer to the goals of the 2020 enterprise vision are both discussed, along with the implications of the findings for EU/UK businesses operating in similar digital domains.
