Machine Learning: A Probabilistic Perspective (Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning series) series)
Machine Learning: A Probabilistic Perspective Adaptive Computation and Machine Learning
Used - Good. A comprehensive introduction to machine learning that uses probabilistic models and inference as a unifying approach.Today's Web-enabled deluge of electronic data calls for automated methods of data analysis. Machine learning provides these developing methods that can automatically detect patterns in data and then use the uncovered patterns to predict future data. This textbook offers a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to the field of machine learning based on a unified probabilistic approach.The coverage combines breadth and depth offering necessary background material on such topics as probability optimization and linear algebra as well as discussion of recent developments in the field including conditional random fields L1 regularization and deep learning. The book is written in an informal accessible style complete with pseudo-code for the most important algorithms. All topics are copiously illustrated with color images and worked examples drawn from such application domains as biology text processing computer vision and robotics. Rather than providing a cookbook of different heuristic methods the book stresses a principled model-based approach often using the language of graphical models to specify models in a concise and intuitive way. Almost all the models described have been implemented in a MATLAB software package—PMTK probabilistic modeling toolkit—that is freely available online. The book is suitable for upper-level undergraduates with an introductory-level college math background and beginning graduate students." unknown

MACMUNN G.
The Indian Mutiny in Perspective. A THOROUGHLY 'LOCAL' COPY IN FULL MOROCCO
8vo., First Edition, on laid paper, with a frontispiece, 23 plates on 15m 4 full-page maps in the text and front and rear endpaper maps, some mild marginal age-staining; handsomely bound in burgundy full morocco, back gilt with five raised bands, second and fourth compartments lettered and ruled in gilt, all other compartments tooled and ruled in gilt, uncut, gilt from original board mounted on new and separate leaf, a most attractive copy ideal as a gift or for presentation. This copy was presented by Sir Reginald Spence and carries an appropriate presentation bookplate on front paste-down. Spence evidently acquired his copy in India; it bears the coloured trade ticket of Taraporevala's bookshop in Bombay, the stamp of the Byculla Club (of the same city) on half-title and title, AND THE CLUB LIBRARY'S ORIGINAL ACCESSION SLIP MOUNTED BEFORE HALF-TITLE. A FASCINATING AND COLOURFUL COPY HUGELY REDOLENT OF THE LAST DAYS OF RAJ, LOCALLY ACQUIRED BY AN EMINENT SERVANT OF THE CROWN IN INDIA AND SUBSEQUENTLY PRESENTED BY HIM TO HIS ALMA MATA.

MATTHAEUS COLLACIUS
OPUSCULA.
In-4; pp. (28). Legatura in cartonato settecentesco.Prima e unica edizione di questi trattati sulla prospettiva e la retorica, scritti dall'umanista calabrese, che colgono un momento fondamentale dell'evoluzione artistica del rinascimento italiano.Opera di esaltazione della prospettiva nell'arte rinascimentale, che Collacio ravvisa nelle opere di alcuni artisti contemporanei tra cui in primis individua la pala di San Cassiano diAntonello da Messina, opera che segna anche l'introduzione in Italia della tecnica a olio. Seguono gli esempi dei fratelli Bellini, del Mantegna, di Pietro Lombardo, e il coro ligneo dei fratelli Canozi nella Basilica del Santo a Padova, opera per cui questo testo e' anche una preziosa fonte di descrizione iconografica essendo il coro andato distrutto.In questa rara opera pubblicata a Venezia, si raccoglie in modo assai interessante una summa di fattori ed eventi legati alla vita e agli studi di Matteo Colacio (Foroleto, provincia di Catanzaro, inizio della prima meta' del XVI secolo, forse 1457 - nessuna ipotesi sulla data della morte). Una descrizione piu' lunga ed accurata verra' fornita su richiesta.P.a.R.

OPTICS. PERSPECTIVE. Diano, Ferdinando di (b. ca. 1571 – d. ca. 1650)
Occhio errante dalla ragione emendato. Prospettiva
Venice: Lucio Spineda 1628. SOLE EDITION. Hardcover. Fine. Contemporary limp vellum in fine condition paste-down torn. The text is in excellent condition with a few instances of light toning in gatherings O S and X and a small worm-track in the margin of the first few lvs. The text is illustrated with woodcut diagrams. An extremely rare book. OCLC cites only 1 copy in North America Columbia University and 5 other institutional copies outside of Italy two in Denmark two in France one in Switzerland. Vagnetti described the book without having seen a copy. Riccardi described an incomplete copy. First and only edition of this wide-ranging work on selected problems in perspective and its underlying geometry largely organized around what the author considers to be commonly found theoretical or practical errors. Diano proves himself to be well read in the contemporary literature of optics and perspective citing Kepler Maurolico Aguilon and others. The final two chapters describe perspective instruments of the variety used by Dürer.<br /> <br /> Ferdinando di Diano born around 1571 was an Italian mathematician philosopher and theologian author of some fifteen texts on various subjects including the natural sciences.<br /> <br /> In “The Eye Wandering from Reason Emended. Perspectiveâ€1628 Diano distinguishes between ‘perspectiva naturalis’ physiological optics and ‘perspectiva artificialis’ the graphic method that allows the rationalization of space. Diano considers human perception via ‘perspectiva naturalis’ to be fallible; one cannot be sure what one perceives visually is true or merely a ‘deception of the mind’. That is the observer does not know if the images that reach the retina are altered in some way by the mind. By contrast through ‘perspectiva artificalis’ using optical and measuring tools to “construct†an accurate perspective view the individual can affirm the reliability of one's senses. <br /> <br /> It is this enhancement of the ability of men to thwart the illusions of visual perception that is at the heart of the “The Eye Wandering from Reason Emended. Perspective.†In Diano’s views it is the ability to distinguish our perception from reality that distinguishes the soul of rational people from those of madmen and beasts. Lucio Spineda hardcover
