With a subtitle of "How to Build Applied Machine Learning Solutions from Unlabeled Data", this book shows how unsupervised learning can be applied to unlabeled datasets to discover meaningful patterns buried deep in the data, patterns that may be near impossible for humans to uncover. Author Ankur Patel provides practical knowledge on how to apply unsupervised learning using two simple, production-ready Python frameworks - scikit-learn and TensorFlow - using Keras with hands-on examples and code. He shows how to identify difficult-to-find patterns in data, detect anomalies, perform automatic feature engineering and selection, and generate synthetic datasets.

This book shows how WebAssembly's stack machine architecture works, how to install low-level wasm tools, and illustrates the dark art of writing raw wast code. Author Kevin Hoffman.builds on that foundation and shows how to compile WebAssembly modules from Rust, and how to create wasm modules in Rust to interoperate with JavaScript. The book also shows how to work with non-web hosts, and has examples ranging from an app running on a Raspberry Pi that controls a lighting system, to a fully-functioning online multiplayer game engine where developers upload their own arena-bound WebAssembly combat modules.

Subtitled "A Test-Driven Guide to Your First 3D Renderer", this book sets you the challenge of building a photorealistic 3D renderer from scratch. Author Jamis Buck says it's easier than you think. In just a couple of weeks, build a ray-tracer that renders scenes with shadows, reflections, refraction effects, and subjects composed of various graphics primitives: spheres, cubes, cylinders and triangles. With each chapter, the reader is shown how to implement another piece of the puzzle and move the renderer that much further forward. The information is given in a language independent way in plain English, which you translate into tests and code.
