"Paul Ash and John D′Auria draw on their deep understanding of school districts to help explain why so many American students are left behind. Their solution—to build the capacity of educators through collaboration and honest reflection—should make their book required reading for anyone who aspires to educational leadership." —Karin Chenoweth, Co-author of Getting It Done: Leading Academic Success in Unexpected Schools "This is a carefully developed and immensely practical guide for educators on how to build trust, develop collaborative capacity, and foster leadership at all levels—from the classroom teacher to the superintendent." —Amy C.

Through a series of recent breakthroughs, deep learning has boosted the entire field of machine learning. Now, even programmers who know close to nothing about this technology can use simple, efficient tools to implement programs capable of learning from data. This practical book shows you how. By using concrete examples, minimal theory, and two production-ready Python frameworks—Scikit-Learn and TensorFlow—author Aurélien Géron helps you gain an intuitive understanding of the concepts and tools for building intelligent systems. You’ll learn a range of techniques, starting with simple linear regression and progressing to deep neural networks. With exercises in each chapter to help you apply what you’ve learned, all you need is programming experience to get started. Explore the machine learning landscape, particularly neural nets Use Scikit-Learn to track an example machine-learning project end-to-end Explore several training models, including support vector machines, decision trees, random forests, and ensemble methods Use the TensorFlow library to build and train neural nets Dive into neural net architectures, including convolutional nets, recurrent nets, and deep reinforcement learning Learn techniques for training and scaling deep neural nets

As our nation enters a new era of medical science that offers the real prospect of personalized health care, we will be confronted by an increasingly complex array of health care options and decisions. The Learning Healthcare System considers how health care is structured to develop and to apply evidence-from health profession training and infrastructure development to advances in research methodology, patient engagement, payment schemes, and measurement-and highlights opportunities for the creation of a sustainable learning health care system that gets the right care to people when they need it and then captures the results for improvement. This book will be of primary interest to hospital and insurance industry administrators, health care providers, those who train and educate health workers, researchers, and policymakers. The Learning Healthcare System is the first in a series that will focus on issues important to improving the development and application of evidence in health care decision making. The Roundtable on Evidence-Based Medicine serves as a neutral venue for cooperative work among key stakeholders on several dimensions: to help transform the availability and use of the best evidence for the collaborative health care choices of each patient and provider; to drive the process of discovery as a natural outgrowth of patient care; and, ultimately, to ensure innovation, quality, safety, and value in health care.

The challenges of the 21st century - from humanitarian to economic to environmental-demand new ways of thinking and more complex, flexible ways of acting. We no longer live in a disconnected world, due to the advances in technology and travel; a globalized world and economy require different approaches. "Systems thinking" is a highly developed and influential way of looking at the myriad and complicated interactions between humans, institutions, and natural processes.This book will help you understand the basics of systems thinking while providing you with the motivation to apply these tenants to your professional and personal life. From a thorough grounding in its basic principles to examples of how systems thinking works in real-time situations, the lessons and suggestions herein will guide you through the basic tenants, such as interconnectedness, synthesis, emergence, feedback loops, causality, and systems mapping. Move past the traditional forms of linear, mechanistic thinking to a more complex and dynamic way to solve problems, plan strategically, and make smarter decisions.Some of the specific material you will encounter in this book includes: An overall understanding of systems thinking and how each basic tenant leads to a greater understanding of this new approach to professional and personal success A detailed understanding of the archetypes that are identified within systems thinking, such as drifting goals and success to the successful, and how to utilize those archetypes in developing plans Chapters on how to specifically cultivate problem-solving skills, strategic planning, and forward-thinking decision making An understanding of mental modes and how we use them and how to change them to incorporate into our larger vision for the future A pragmatic guide to achieving success within a complex and dynamic world that requires new and original ways of thinking about how we interact with others and with systems themselves Whether you implement the practices of systems thinking within an organization or in your own interactions with the world, you will find it to be a dynamic and creative way to confront whatever challenges stand before you. The world in which we live isn't static; therefore, our responses to problem-solving and making smart decisions must also be active and engaged. Employing the new tools proposed by systems thinking will assist us cultivating this kind of adaptive and responsive skill set. Systems thinking encourages us to think in a three dimensional way and learning the terms and tools of this new approach to business, and the world can assist us in solving the complex problems that we face, as well as encourage us to plan well and make smarter decisions for our future.

This open access book presents the first comprehensive overview of general methods in Automated Machine Learning (AutoML), collects descriptions of existing systems based on these methods, and discusses the first series of international challenges of AutoML systems. The recent success of commercial ML applications and the rapid growth of the field has created a high demand for off-the-shelf ML methods that can be used easily and without expert knowledge. However, many of the recent machine learning successes crucially rely on human experts, who manually select appropriate ML architectures (deep learning architectures or more traditional ML workflows) and their hyperparameters. To overcome this problem, the field of AutoML targets a progressive automation of machine learning, based on principles from optimization and machine learning itself. This book serves as a point of entry into this quickly-developing field for researchers and advanced students alike, as well as providing a reference for practitioners aiming to use AutoML in their work.
