AI-verktyg kan producera text på sekunder, men resultatet blir inte alltid bra. Många som testar blir frustrerade. Andra tvekar – är det inte fusk?

Skriv med AI är boken för dig som vill skriva bättre texter på kortare tid utan att förlora vare sig kvalitet, röst eller integritet. Här får du tydliga, konkreta instruktioner och många exempel på hur du använder AI som skrivhjälp. Du lär dig hur AI kan stötta när skrivandet känns svårt, segt eller bara måste gå snabbt, men också vilka texter du bör fortsätta att skriva själv.

Boken vänder sig till alla som skriver – från den ovana som behöver hjälp att komma i gång till den erfarna som ibland kör fast. Även du som är nyfiken på AI, men inte vågat prova ännu, kommer att känna dig guidad och trygg.

Skriv med AI visar hur du kan skriva smartare, snyggare och snabbare tillsammans med en maskin – utan att tappa vare sig kontrollen eller din egen röst.

Det här är boken för dig som inte nöjer dig med trendspaningar, kortsiktiga pilotprojekt eller ännu en rapport om att Sverige halkar efter i AI-utvecklingen. I stället vill du förstå hur AI kan skapa verkligt värde i just din vardag, i din organisation – och du vill veta hur du kommer i gång.Vad fan ska vi med AI till? – affärsutveckling & innovation med AI är en bok för dig som är nyfiken, kanske lite stressad, men framför allt redo att ta första steget. Den hjälper dig att navigera mellan AI-dystopier och teknikutopier, och hitta de verkliga möjligheterna i mellanrummet däremellan.I boken Vad fan ska vi med AI till? får du konkreta exempel på hur generativ AI redan används för att fatta bättre beslut, skapa nya affärer och frigöra kreativitet. Du får verktyg, ramverk och frågeställningar som hjälper dig att prioritera och bygga verksamheter och affärer för framtiden – trots att den är så snabbföränderlig och osäker. Och viktigast av allt: du får med dig en känsla av att det går.Det här är inte en bok som kräver teknisk bakgrund. Det är däremot en bok som kräver nyfikenhet, vilja och lite mod. För när maskinerna blir smartare behöver vi bli klokare – både som individer och som ledare.

Sagt om boken:

”Boken riktar sig till företagare och de som påverkar hur bolag styrs, då huvuddelen handlar om hur du som läsare kan använda och/eller integrera AI i ditt företag. […] Modlitba uppmanar till empatiskt och ansvarsfullt användande av AI. Att vi inte ska få panik över de katastrofala följder som tillämpningen kan få utan försöka utnyttja utvecklingen själva. I boken finns flertalet exempel där följderna av AI varit antingen positiva eller negativa. Till exempel har liv räddats genom att registrera och analysera rörelsemönster vid suicidförsök på tunnelbanan, men samtidigt lyckades en bidragsfusk-letande algoritm förstöra över 10.000 människors liv i Nederländerna.”Nina Moritz, BTJ-häftet nr 19, 2025

Bayesian statistics and statistical practice have evolved over the years, driven by advancements in theory, methods, and computational tools. Bayesian Workflow explores the intricate workflows of applied Bayesian statistics, aiming to uncover the tacit knowledge often overlooked in published papers and textbooks. By systematizing the process of Bayesian model development, the book seeks to improve applied analyses and inspire future innovations in theory, methods, and software. It emphasizes the importance of iterative model building, model checking, computational troubleshooting, and simulated-data experimentation, offering a comprehensive perspective on statistical analysis.Through detailed examples and practical guidance, the book bridges the gap between theory and application, empowering practitioners and researchers to navigate the complexities of Bayesian inference. It is not a checklist or cookbook but a flexible framework for understanding and resolving challenges in statistical modeling and decision-making under uncertainty.FeaturesCovers all aspects of Bayesian statistical workflow, including model building, inference, validation, troubleshooting, and understandingDemonstrates iterative model development and computational problem-solving through real-world case studiesExplores computational challenges, calibration checking, and connections between modeling and computationHighlights the importance of checking models under diverse conditions to understand their limitations and improve their robustnessDiscusses how Bayesian principles apply to non-Bayesian methods in statistics and machine learningIncludes code snippets, exercises, and links to full datasets and code in R and Stan, with applicability to other programming environments like Python and JuliaThis book is designed for practitioners of applied Bayesian statistics, particularly users of probabilistic programming languages such as Stan, as well as developers of methods and software tailored to these users. It also targets researchers in Bayesian theory and methods, offering insights into understudied aspects of statistical workflows.

Discover how to apply software engineering patterns to develop more robust firmware faster than traditional embedded development approaches. In the authors’ experience, traditional embedded software projects tend towards monolithic applications that are optimized for their target hardware platforms. This leads to software that is fragile in terms of extensibility and difficult to test without fully integrated software and hardware. Patterns in the Machine focuses on creating loosely coupled implementations that embrace both change and testability.This book illustrates how implementing continuous integration, automated unit testing, platform-independent code, and other best practices that are not typically implemented in the embedded systems world is not just feasible but also practical for today’s embedded projects.After reading this book, you will have a better idea of how to structure your embedded software projects. You will recognize that while writing unit tests, creating simulators, and implementing continuous integration requires time and effort up front, you will be amply rewarded at the end of the project in terms of quality, adaptability, and maintainability of your code. What You Will LearnIncorporate automated unit testing into an embedded projectDesign and build functional simulators for an embedded projectWrite production-quality software when hardware is not availableUse the Data Model architectural pattern to create a highly decoupled design and implementationUnderstand the importance of defining the software architecture before implementation starts and how to do itDiscover why documentation is essential for an embedded projectUse finite state machines in embedded projectsWho This Book Is ForMid-level or higher embedded systems (firmware) developers, technical leads, software architects, and development managers.

Lessons of SPAZIO

AvRoberto Podda

692 kr

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar

Luigi Moretti: Lessons of SPAZIO focuses on the theoretical work of the Italian architect Luigi Moretti (Rome, 1906–1973). It does so selectively, focusing on the editorials he published between 1950 and 1953 as editor-in-chief of the magazine SPAZIO, as well as a further essay on parametric architecture, published in 1971–1972, in the first issue of the magazine MOEBIUS, directed by his friend Giulio Roisecco.This book rediscovers Moretti's personal impact on international architectural theory through thoughtful comments that shed light on the architect's modernity and original approach. Although Moretti is an architect renowned for his projects and buildings, his theoretical essays are less well-known. The aim of this book is therefore to explore Moretti's theoretical work, which covers many topics, including pictorial art, sculpture, architecture, urban planning, music, cinema, poetry, mathematics, computer science, parametricity. In addition to the translation from Italian to English, the book contains reproductions of the original articles, accompanied by a series of essays of critical commentary and updated interpretations that show new ways of approaching, reading, and understanding the foundations of current architectural theory and its progress over the last 50 years. This book approaches Moretti's thought from a new perspective, with the aim of reconsidering the originality of this brilliant and visionary architect who was intellectually ostracised for many years due to political and ideological contingencies, even though he personified the ideal of the 'Renaissance man' in modern times.A re-reading of Moretti's work is more justified today than has ever been before, both to reconnect the threads with contemporaneity and to make his intensity and farsightedness of vision known to researchers, teachers, and students working in the areas of architecture and design theory, technology, and art today.

Lankhorst and his co‑authors present ArchiMate® 3.0, enterprise modelling language that captures the complexity of architectural domains and their relations and allows the construction of integrated enterprise architecture models. They provide architects with concrete instruments that improve their architectural practice. As this is not enough, they additionally present techniques and heuristics for communicating with all relevant stakeholders about these architectures. Since an architecture model is useful not only for providing insight into the current or future situation but can also be used to evaluate the transition from ‘as‑is’ to ‘to‑be’, the authors also describe analysis methods for assessing both the qualitative impact of changes to an architecture and the quantitative aspects of architectures, such as performance and cost issues.The modelling language presented has been proven in practice in many real‑life case studies and has been adopted by The Open Group as an international standard. So this book is an ideal companion for enterprise IT or business architects in industry as well as for computer or management science students studying the field of enterprise architecture.This fourth edition of the book has been completely reworked to be compatible with ArchiMate® 3.0, and it includes a new chapter relating this new version to other standards. New sections on capability analysis, risk analysis, and business architecture in general have also been introduced.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar

This book elaborates the science and engineering basis for energy-efficient driving in conventional and autonomous cars. After covering the physics of energy-efficient motion in conventional, hybrid, and electric powertrains, the book chiefly focuses on the energy-saving potential of connected and automated vehicles. It reveals how being connected to other vehicles and the infrastructure enables the anticipation of upcoming driving-relevant factors, e.g. hills, curves, slow traffic, state of traffic signals, and movements of nearby vehicles. In turn, automation allows vehicles to adjust their motion more precisely in anticipation of upcoming events, and to save energy. Lastly, the energy-efficient motion of connected and automated vehicles could have a harmonizing effect on mixed traffic, leading to additional energy savings for neighboring vehicles. Building on classical methods of powertrain modeling, optimization, and optimal control, the book further develops the theory of energy-efficient driving. In addition, it presents numerous theoretical and applied case studies that highlight the real-world implications of the theory developed. The book is chiefly intended for undergraduate and graduate engineering students and industry practitioners with a background in mechanical, electrical, or automotive engineering, computer science or robotics.

Computational Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Science Using Python provides the necessary knowledge users need to embed more modern computing techniques into current practices, while also helping practitioners replace Fortran-based implementations with higher level languages. The book is especially unique in the market with its implementation of Python into nuclear engineering methods, seeking to do so by first teaching the basics of Python, then going through different techniques to solve systems of equations, and finally applying that knowledge to solve problems specific to nuclear engineering.

Along with examples of code and end-of-chapter problems, the book is an asset to novice programmers in nuclear engineering and radiological sciences, teaching them how to analyze complex systems using modern computational techniques.

For decades, the paradigm in engineering education, in particular, nuclear engineering, has been to teach Fortran along with numerical methods for solving engineering problems. This has been slowly changing as new codes have been written utilizing modern languages, such as Python, thus resulting in a greater need for the development of more modern computational skills and techniques in nuclear engineering.

Offers numerical methods as a tool to solve specific problems in nuclear engineering Provides examples on how to simulate different problems and produce graphs using Python Supplies accompanying codes and data on a companion website, along with solutions to end-of-chapter problems

This is the paperback edition of The LaTeX Companion, Third Edition -- Part I.

This edition consists of two parts. This is Part I and you can find Part II by going to ISBN 9780135480229. A bundle of both books is available at a special, discounted price; please see the listing for ISBN 9780135556849.

For nearly three decades The LaTeX Companion has been the essential resource for anyone using LaTeX to create high-quality documents. Just like the earlier editions, this completely updated third edition is designed to serve as the stable core resource for users: covering all aspects of document production, from detailed micro-typography questions and macro-typography (heading design, lists, mathematics, tables, graphics, fonts, page-layout, etc.) to bibliography and index production.

All chapters have been thoroughly revised and in many cases largely extended to describe new important functionality and features. More than 5,000 add-on packages have been analyzed in detail, out of which roughly 10% have been chosen for inclusion in The LaTeX Companion. All important aspects of these packages are described to provide the user once again with a satisfying one-stop-shop experience for the decade to come.

Following the concept of the earlier versions, the new edition is full of novel tips and tricks for using LaTeX in both traditional and modern typesetting, and also shows you how to customize layout features to your own needs--from phrases and paragraphs to headings, lists, and pages.

New to this edition:

Inclusion of, or more details on, important new or changed large-scale packages, e.g., biblatex, fontspec, hyperref, mathtools, siunitx, tcolorbox, tikz, and unicode-math, to name just a few. Coverage of newer engine developments, e.g., the use of Unicode engines with LaTeX. Discussion of all vital changes to LaTeX itself, which is is undergoing a transformation to keep it relevant in the years to come. Examples are the new hook management system for LaTeX, the extended document command syntax, and the inclusion of the LaTeX3 programming layer into the LaTeX format. Inclusion of many new, useful (smaller) packages in all chapters--each offering additional functionality. Two new chapters devoted to the use of high-quality fonts for text and math (OpenType, TrueType, and Type 1), now available for use with LaTeX. They offer a comprehensive set of samples to choose from, compiled with the help of an expert font designer. Revised discussions of multi-lingual support by the authors of the babel system to typeset text from a wide range of languages and cultures. The chapter on bibliography generation now also covers the styles made available with biblatex and biber. More than 1,500 fully tested examples (an increase of 30%) that illustrate the text and solve typographical and technical problems--all ready to run!

This volume (Part I) of the edition covers:

An introduction to LaTeX and its history The structure of a LaTeX document Basic formatting tools (paragraph level) Basic formatting tools (larger structures) Page layout Tabular material Mastering floats Graphics generation and manipulation Font selection and encodings

Part II contains chapters on: Text and symbol fonts • Higher mathematics • Fonts in formulas • Localization and multilingual documents • Index generation • Bibliography generation • Managing citations • Package documentation tools • LaTeX programming and troubleshooting problems
