Cloud Computing and Big Data technologies have become the new descriptors of the digital age. The global amount of digital data has increased more than nine times in volume in just five years and by 2030 its volume may reach a staggering 65 trillion gigabytes. This explosion of data has led to opportunities and transformation in various areas such as healthcare, enterprises, industrial manufacturing and transportation. New Cloud Computing and Big Data tools endow researchers and analysts with novel techniques and opportunities to collect, manage and analyze the vast quantities of data. In Cloud and Big Data Analytics, the two areas of Swarm Intelligence and Deep Learning are a developing type of Machine Learning techniques that show enormous potential for solving complex business problems. Deep Learning enables computers to analyze large quantities of unstructured and binary data and to deduce relationships without requiring specific models or programming instructions. This book introduces the state-of-the-art trends and advances in the use of Machine Learning in Cloud and Big Data Analytics. The book will serve as a reference for Data Scientists, systems architects, developers, new researchers and graduate level students in Computer and Data science. The book will describe the concepts necessary to understand current Machine Learning issues, challenges and possible solutions as well as upcoming trends in Big Data Analytics.

DATA ENGINEERING and DATA SCIENCE Written and edited by one of the most prolific and well-known experts in the field and his team, this exciting new volume is the “one-stop shop” for the concepts and applications of data science and engineering for data scientists across many industries. The field of data science is incredibly broad, encompassing everything from cleaning data to deploying predictive models. However, it is rare for any single data scientist to be working across the spectrum day to day. Data scientists usually focus on a few areas and are complemented by a team of other scientists and analysts. Data engineering is also a broad field, but any individual data engineer doesn’t need to know the whole spectrum of skills. Data engineering is the aspect of data science that focuses on practical applications of data collection and analysis. For all the work that data scientists do to answer questions using large sets of information, there have to be mechanisms for collecting and validating that information. In this exciting new volume, the team of editors and contributors sketch the broad outlines of data engineering, then walk through more specific descriptions that illustrate specific data engineering roles. Data-driven discovery is revolutionizing the modeling, prediction, and control of complex systems. This book brings together machine learning, engineering mathematics, and mathematical physics to integrate modeling and control of dynamical systems with modern methods in data science. It highlights many of the recent advances in scientific computing that enable data-driven methods to be applied to a diverse range of complex systems, such as turbulence, the brain, climate, epidemiology, finance, robotics, and autonomy. Whether for the veteran engineer or scientist working in the field or laboratory, or the student or academic, this is a must-have for any library.

Introduction to Data Science and Machine Learning has been created with the goal to provide beginners seeking to learn about data science, data enthusiasts, and experienced data professionals with a deep understanding of data science application development using open-source programming from start to finish. This book is divided into four sections: the first section contains an introduction to the book, the second covers the field of data science, software development, and open-source based embedded hardware; the third section covers algorithms that are the decision engines for data science applications; and the final section brings together the concepts shared in the first three sections and provides several examples of data science applications.

The volume of data that is generated, stored, and communicated across different industrial sections, business units, and scientific research communities has been rapidly expanding. The recent developments in cellular telecommunications and distributed/parallel computation technology have enabled real-time collection and processing of the generated data across different sections. On the one hand, the internet of things (IoT) enabled by cellular telecommunication industry connects various types of sensors that can collect heterogeneous data. On the other hand, the recent advances in computational capabilities such as parallel processing in graphical processing units (GPUs) and distributed processing over cloud computing clusters enabled the processing of a vast amount of data. There has been a vital need to discover important patterns and infer trends from a large volume of data (so-called Big Data) to empower data-driven decision-making processes. Tools and techniques have been developed in machine learning to draw insightful conclusions from available data in a structured and automated fashion. Machine learning algorithms are based on concepts and tools developed in several fields including statistics, artificial intelligence, information theory, cognitive science, and control theory. The recent advances in machine learning have had a broad range of applications in different scientific disciplines. This book covers recent advances of machine learning techniques in a broad range of applications in smart cities, automated industry, and emerging businesses.
