Download or read book Information Theory, Inference and Learning Algorithms written by David J. C. MacKay and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-09-25 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information theory and inference, taught together in this exciting textbook, lie at the heart of many important areas of modern technology - communication, signal processing, data mining, machine learning, pattern recognition, computational neuroscience, bioinformatics and cryptography. The book introduces theory in tandem with applications. Information theory is taught alongside practical communication systems such as arithmetic coding for data compression and sparse-graph codes for error-correction. Inference techniques, including message-passing algorithms, Monte Carlo methods and variational approximations, are developed alongside applications to clustering, convolutional codes, independent component analysis, and neural networks. Uniquely, the book covers state-of-the-art error-correcting codes, including low-density-parity-check codes, turbo codes, and digital fountain codes - the twenty-first-century standards for satellite communications, disk drives, and data broadcast. Richly illustrated, filled with worked examples and over 400 exercises, some with detailed solutions, the book is ideal for self-learning, and for undergraduate or graduate courses. It also provides an unparalleled entry point for professionals in areas as diverse as computational biology, financial engineering and machine learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young children often ask their mothers: "Where do I come from?" And, so a journey of self-discovery begins. We want to know where our grandparents come from? Where and how they lived? This is the story of Ian Mackay's great, great, great, great grandfather, Hugh Coardach MacKay (Senior) and those that followed him. It is a journey of paternal ancestral discovery and an exploration of the lifestyles and personal interactions of these predecesors in and around the family's ancestral home in Scotland over the last two centuries. This is Ian's fifth self-published book. His fourth book, Mackay Family History, was a journey of nine generations of "Cordach" Mackays from northern Scotland in 1771, to South Africa in 1910 and to western Canada in 1995. Fittingly, this book, delves deeper into the Cordach Mackay heritage.

Download or read book The Bonanza King written by Gregory Crouch and published by Scribner. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A monumentally researched biography of one of the nineteenth century’s wealthiest self-made Americans…Well-written and worthwhile” (The Wall Street Journal) it’s the rags-to-riches frontier tale of an Irish immigrant who outwits, outworks, and outmaneuvers thousands of rivals to take control of Nevada’s Comstock Lode. Born in 1831, John W. Mackay was a penniless Irish immigrant who came of age in New York City, went to California during the Gold Rush, and mined without much luck for eight years. When he heard of riches found on the other side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in 1859, Mackay abandoned his claim and walked a hundred miles to the Comstock Lode in Nevada. Over the course of the next dozen years, Mackay worked his way up from nothing, thwarting the pernicious “Bank Ring” monopoly to seize control of the most concentrated cache of precious metals ever found on earth, the legendary “Big Bonanza,” a stupendously rich body of gold and silver ore discovered 1,500 feet beneath the streets of Virginia City, the ultimate Old West boomtown. But for the ore to be worth anything it had to be found, claimed, and successfully extracted, each step requiring enormous risk and the creation of an entirely new industry. Now Gregory Crouch tells Mackay’s amazing story—how he extracted the ore from deep underground and used his vast mining fortune to crush the transatlantic telegraph monopoly of the notorious Jay Gould. “No one does a better job than Crouch when he explores the subject of mining, and no one does a better job than he when he describes the hardscrabble lives of miners” (San Francisco Chronicle). Featuring great period photographs and maps, The Bonanza King is a dazzling tour de force, a riveting history of Virginia City, Nevada, the Comstock Lode, and America itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an appraisal of clanship both with respect to its vitality and its eventual demise, in which the author views clanship as a socio-economic, as well as a political agency, deriving its strength from personal obligations and mutual service between chiefs and gentry and their clansmen. Its demise is attributed to the throwing over of these personal obligations by the clan elite, not to legislation or central government repression. The book discusses the impact on the clans of the inevitable shift, with the passage of time, from feudalism to capitalism, regardless of the "Forty Five". It draws upon estate papers, family correspondence, financial compacts, social bonds and recorded oral tradition rather than the biased records of central government.

Download or read book Clan Battles written by Chris Peers and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2023-08-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warfare between the clans of the Highlands in the late Middle Ages determined the course of history in this region of Scotland, and Chris Peers’ gripping account of it – and of the rivalry between the strongest clans – gives the reader a deep insight into this bloody, turbulent phase in the development of the far north of the British Isles. The battles he describes, all of them fought between the 1430s and the 1540s, were flash points in the long struggle for dominance between the leading clans of the region. The battles are reconstructed in vivid detail. The first, Druim n Coub, was fought in 1433 between the Mackays and the Sutherlands. Then came Bloody Bay, a sea fight between rival MacDonald factions, Blar na Parc between the MacDonalds and the Mackenzies, Creag an Airgid between the MacDonalds and the MacIains, Glendale between the MacDonalds and MacLeods, and Torran Dubh between alliances headed by the Mackays and Sutherlands. The final battle, Blar na Leine, fought between the MacDonalds and the Frasers in 1544, marked the end of an era. The subsequent fate of the leading clans, principally the MacDonalds and Mackays, is also covered in a narrative that gives the reader a fascinating new perspective of clan loyalties and conflict which still resonates today. As well as covering the fighting Chris Peers explains the way war in the Highlands was organized by the contending clans during the period – the strategies and tactics, weapons and armor they employed. The result is an absorbing all-round account of the military history of the Highlands before the clans eventually lost their independence.

Download or read book Harbor Hill written by Richard Guy Wilson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2008-03-04 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "palace" ruled by a "queen," Harbor Hill in Roslyn, Long Island, was commissioned by the beautiful and imperious Katherine Duer Mackay, wife of one of the country's wealthiest men. The mansion along with its magnificent furnishings, art, gardens, and the owners' striving, hubris, and ultimate failure are the dramatis personae of this saga. Stanford White, the architect, wrote, "with the exception of Biltmore, I do not think there will be an estate equal to it in the country." An extravagant product of the desire for social acceptance, the portrait encompasses western mining and old versus new wealth, religious differences and the building of a church, art collecting, and the many people, from the architects, builders, and workers to the servants and staff who ran the house and gardens. Harbor Hill's story includes elements of farce and tragedy; in a sense it is an American portrait.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keith Sutherland, the son of a powerful clan, is called home to take over the role of chieftain. The elders impose one stipulation―that he takes a wife. He is given the choice to marry one of six lasses from the most prominent clans in the north. As he courts the lasses, he realizes the one woman who ignites his passion is forbidden to him. Marren Macleod gave her heart to Keith long ago. When he returns home, her desire for him deepens, especially when his kisses spark her unbridled passion. As Marren tries to win Keith’s affection, secrets come to light as to why she was sent to his clan for fostering. She is furious to learn she’s nothing but a pawn, going from one laird to another in their game of alliances and enemies. To prevent marriage to her guardian’s choice, Marren must force her betrothed to break the agreement set by his father. At first, Keith wholeheartedly courts the lasses, but then mysterious happenings occur. Some lasses fall ill and some flee his castle in fear they have been hexed. He refuses to name the lass he intends to marry and delays his nuptials, much to the chagrin of his clan. With seven lasses at his disposal, one laird should be able to find a woman likable enough to marry. If only he might win the heart of the woman he most desires and put behind him the family discord that could be his undoing.
