Data Mining and Statistics for Decision Making
Data mining is the process of automatically searching large volumes of data for models and patterns using computational techniques from statistics, machine learning and information theory; it is the ideal tool for such an extraction of knowledge. Data mining is usually associated with a business or an organization's need to identify trends and profiles, allowing, for example, retailers to discover patterns on which to base marketing objectives. This book looks at both classical and recent techniques of data mining, such as clustering, discriminant analysis, logistic regression, generalized linear models, regularized regression, PLS regression, decision trees, neural networks, support vector ...
Computational Actuarial Science with R
A Hands-On Approach to Understanding and Using Actuarial Models Computational Actuarial Science with R provides an introduction to the computational aspects of actuarial science. Using simple R code, the book helps you understand the algorithms involved in actuarial computations. It also covers more advanced topics, such as parallel computing and C/C++ embedded codes. After an introduction to the R language, the book is divided into four parts. The first one addresses methodology and statistical modeling issues. The second part discusses the computational facets of life insurance, including life contingencies calculations and prospective life tables. Focusing on finance from an actuarial per...

Forest Economics
Forestry cannot be isolated from the forces that drive all economic activity. It involves using land, labour, and capital to produce goods and services from forests, while economics helps in understanding how this can be done in ways that will best meet the needs of people. Therefore, a firm grounding in economics is integral to sound forestry policies and practices. This book, a major revision and expansion of Peter H. Pearse’s 1990 classic, provides this grounding. Updated and enhanced with advanced empirical presentation of materials, it covers the basic economic principles and concepts and their application to modern forest management and policy issues. Forest Economics draws on the strengths of two of the field’s leading practitioners who have more than fifty years of combined experience in teaching forest economics in the United States and Canada. Its comprehensive and systematic analysis of forest issues makes it an indispensable resource for students and practitioners of forest management, natural resource conservation, and environmental studies.
Deep Learning
A concise and practical exploration of key topics and applications in data science In Deep Learning, from Big Data to Artificial Intelligence, expert researcher Dr. Stéphane Tufféry delivers an insightful discussion of the applications of deep learning and big data that focuses on practical instructions on various software tools and deep learning methods relying on three major libraries: MXNet, PyTorch, and Keras-TensorFlow. In the book, numerous, up-to-date examples are combined with key topics relevant to modern data scientists, including processing optimization, neural network applications, natural language processing, and image recognition. This is a thoroughly revised and updated edit...
Data Mining et statistique décisionnelle
Le data mining et la statistique sont de plus en plus répandus dans les entreprises et les organisations soucieuses d’extraire l’information pertinente de leurs bases de données, qu’elles peuvent utiliser pour expliquer et prévoir les phénomènes qui les concernent (risques, consommation, fidélisation...). Cette quatrième édition, actualisée et augmentée de 120 pages, fait le point sur le data mining, ses fondements théoriques, ses méthodes, ses outils et ses applications, qui vont du scoring jusqu’au web mining et au text mining. Nombre de ses outils appartiennent à l’analyse des données et la statistique "classique" (analyse factorielle, classification automatique, a...
Arts Governance
Since the crisis in governance which led to a shortage of capable board members, recent years have seen the emergence of the enterprising arts organisation – a development which has led to the need for new types of board members who have a greater understanding of 'mission, money and merit' within a cultural construct. This innovative book explores the world of the arts board member from the unique perspective of the cultural and creative industries. Using a wide range of research techniques including interviews with board members and stakeholders, board observations and case studies this book provides a rich and deep analysis from inside the boardroom. It provides in-depth insight into th...
Etude de cas en statistique décisionnelle
Comprendre les principes théoriques de la statistique est une chose ; savoir les mettre en pratique en est une autre, et le fossé peut être large entre les deux. C'est pour vous aider à le franchir que l'auteur a écrit un ouvrage de " travaux pratiques " de la statistique décisionnelle, qui fait suite à son ouvrage de cours, Data Ming et statistique décisionnelle paru dans la même collection. Ce nouvel ouvrage présente une étude de cas réalisée de A à Z à partir du même jeu de données, et répondant de façon complète et cohérente à deux importantes problématiques de la statistique décisionnelle : la construction d'une segmentation de clientèle et l'élaboration d'un s...
New Fundamental Technologies in Data Mining
The progress of data mining technology and large public popularity establish a need for a comprehensive text on the subject. The series of books entitled by "Data Mining" address the need by presenting in-depth description of novel mining algorithms and many useful applications. In addition to understanding each section deeply, the two books present useful hints and strategies to solving problems in the following chapters. The contributing authors have highlighted many future research directions that will foster multi-disciplinary collaborations and hence will lead to significant development in the field of data mining.
Women of Allah
As an Iranian woman, Shirin Neshat's startling photographs convey a power that is more than merely exotic. Veiled women brandish guns in defiant stances, with Arabic calligraphy drawn upon the background of the photos. Though their non-Western iconography may at first disorient the viewer, these pictures have a boldly stylized look that is utterly compelling.
