Machine Learning

A clear, illustrated guide to large language models, covering key concepts and practical applications. Ideal for projects, interviews, or personal learning.

Everything you really need to know in Machine Learning in a hundred pages.

800 pages. 11 chapters. The full forecasting stack in Python — from ARIMA to foundation models — with production-grade code and proper evaluation. No hype.

Skip the black-box frameworks. Build a production-grade AI coding agent from scratch in pure Python - cloud or local, tested with pytest, all in a single file.

Keyword search misses meaning. Vector search misses precision. This book shows you how to combine them into production systems that deliver both, with architecture patterns, model selection frameworks, evaluation methodology, and operational guidance grounded in primary research.

Build a complete LLM inference engine in C++ — from a blankproject to a working Transformer that loads a real model andgenerates text. Forged one challenge at a time, with teststhat prove every piece works before you move on.

Unlock NVIDIA GPU performance from Rust. This practical guide takes you from GPU architecture and memory hierarchies to writing and optimizing real CUDA Rust kernels. Explore both official Rust CUDA approaches with runnable examples and learn how to build fast, production-ready GPU code without giving up Rust’s safety and clarity.

A thorough guide for programmers working with Japanese text, covering fundamental issues like tokenization and recent research topics like generating natural language texts. Working examples are accompanied by extensive reference to allow problem solving even without a background in Japanese or Machine Learning.

A beginner-friendly introduction to machine learning with Python, that is based on the PyCaret and Streamlit libraries. Readers will delve into the fascinating world of artificial intelligence, by easily training and deploying their ML models!

We'll stick to five libraries, not because more would be a problem, but because keeping it simple shows how well we can organise things. When you download MNIST with just the standard library, you finally see what a dataset loader was hiding. If you write attention as four lines of NumPy before you ever call a PyTorch module, it's no longer a magic process but just plain arithmetic.

The latest version of Rust (1.85) has some great new features, like async closures, more stable associated function return types, and const generics that are now mature enough to underpin serious numerical libraries. The linfa and smartcore ecosystems have developed into decent classical machine learning stacks. The Burn training framework feels native to Rust, not like it's been ported from it. The Candle makes it so that loading pre-trained transformer models is more of an engineering task than a research exercise. The crates that used to need all sorts of workarounds now just work.

Have you ever been curious about how your phone unlocks when it sees your face, how a camera can track people and objects in a video, how humans see depth, or how computers can differentiate dogs from cats? This book will start from the basics of image manipulation and build up to cover all of these topics, and more!

AI models do not have to be huge, slow or expensive. Distilling Intelligence explores how to build smaller models that perform at scale, then secure the APIs that serve them. From compression and distributed serving to extraction attacks, observability and incident response, this book covers what it takes to run AI reliably in the real world.

My goal is to equip other programmers with the confidence to confidently incorporate machine learning into their C++ projects by guiding them through real-world examples and addressing common challenges head-on.
