Modeling Longitudinal and Multilevel Data Please note: this item is printed on demand and will take extra time before it can be dispatched to you (up to 20 working days). Practical Issues, Applied Approaches, and Specific Examples Author(s): Todd D. Little, Kai U. Schnabel, J rgen Baumert Format: Hardback Publisher: Taylor & Francis Inc, United States Imprint: Psychology Press ISBN-13: 9780805830545, 978-0805830545 Synopsis This book focuses on the practical issues and approaches to handling longitudinal and multilevel data. All data sets and the corresponding command files are available via the Web. The working examples are available in the four major SEM packages–LISREL, EQS, MX, and AMOS–and two Multi-level packages–HLM and MLn. All equations and figural conventions are standardized across each contribution. The material is accessible to practicing researchers and students. Users can compare and contrast various analytic approaches to longitudinal and multiple-group data including SEM, Multi-level, LTA, and standard GLM techniques. Ideal for graduate students and practicing researchers in social and behavioral sciences.

State-of-the-Art Deep Learning Models in TensorFlow Please note: this item is printed on demand and will take extra time before it can be dispatched to you (up to 20 working days). Modern Machine Learning in the Google Colab Ecosystem Author(s): David Paper Format: Paperback Publisher: APress, United States Imprint: APress ISBN-13: 9781484273401, 978-1484273401 Synopsis Use TensorFlow [url] in the Google Colab ecosystem to create state-of-the-art deep learning models guided by hands-on examples. The Colab ecosystem provides a free cloud service with easy access to on-demand GPU (and TPU) hardware acceleration for fast execution of the models you learn to build. This book teaches you state-of-the-art deep learning models in an applied manner with the only requirement being an Internet connection. The Colab ecosystem provides everything else that you need, including Python, TensorFlow [url] GPU and TPU support, and Jupyter Notebooks. The book begins with an example-driven approach to building input pipelines that feed all machine learning models. You will learn how to provision a workspace on the Colab ecosystem to enable construction of effective input pipelines in a step-by-step manner. From there, you will progress into data augmentation techniques and TensorFlow datasets to gain a deeper understanding of how to work with complex datasets. You will find coverage of Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) and transfer learning followed by state-of-the-art deep learning models, including autoencoders, generative adversarial networks, fast style transfer, object detection, and reinforcement learning. Author Dr. Paper provides all the applied math, programming, and concepts you need to master the content. Examples range from relatively simple to very complex when necessary. Examples are carefully explained, concise, accurate, and complete. Care is taken to walk you through each topic through clear examples written in Python that you can try out and experiment with in the Google Colab ecosystem in the comfort of your own home or office. What You Will Learn Take advantage of the built-in support of the Google Colab ecosystem Work with TensorFlow data sets Create input pipelines to feed state-of-the-art deep learning models Create pipelined state-of-the-art deep learning models with clean and reliable Python code Leverage pre-trained deep learning models to solve complex machine learning tasks Create a simple environment to teach an intelligent agent to make automated decisions Who This Book Is For Readers who want to learn the highly popular TensorFlow deep learning platform, those who wish to master the basics of state-of-the-art deep learning models, and those looking to build competency with a modern cloud service tool such as Google Colab

Auriculotherapy ManualChinese and Western Systems of Ear Acupuncture Author(s): Terry Oleson Format: Hardback Publisher: Elsevier Health Sciences, United Kingdom Imprint: Churchill Livingstone ISBN-13: 9780702035722, 978-0702035722 Synopsis Auriculotherapy Manual: Chinese and Western Systems of Ear Acupuncture provides a comprehensive guide to the practice of Chinese and Western systems of ear acupuncture. This impressive new edition utilizes 3-D models of the external ear, as well as 3-D anatomical images, to demonstrate the somatotopic relationship between particular parts of the body and specific regions of the auricle. This is the first ear acupuncture text that has incorporated 3-D technology in order to present amazing images of the auricle which precisely indicate ear acupoint positions. The book offers in-depth evaluation of the theoretical and clinical underpinnings of auriculotherapy, describing and illustrating over 200 ear acupuncture points and more than 200 auriculotherapy treatment protocols for clinical discorders ranging from chronic pain to substance abuse to visceral and neurological disorders. There are an expanded number of auricular landmarks that are utilized to guide the practitioner in accurately determining the precise location of hidden ear points on the 3-D model. These landmarks further reveal the varied depth perspectives of the external ear. The ear reflex points presented in this manual are based upon systematic research conducted at the UCLA Pain Management Center and upon the extensive clinical findings of medical doctors and acupuncturists in China and Europe over the past 50 years. Scientific and clinical information from the most recent international symposia of auricular acupuncture have been used to update the scientific and clinical knowledge presented in this fourth edition. Each chapter is organized in same basic order, beginning with an introductory overview, progressing to the main topics in the chapter, and ending with a section listing a definition of terms and a set of preparatory sample questions. The book is concise and clear enough for students yet provides provides sophisticated clinical approaches to allow the experienced practitioner to enhance and complement their existing treatment strategies.
