Data Mining - Fundamentals and Applications

Fouad Sabry

Summary

What Is Data Mining
 
Data mining is the process of extracting and detecting patterns in huge data sets by utilizing approaches that lie at the confluence of machine learning, statistical analysis, and database management systems. Data mining is an interdisciplinary subject of computer science and statistics with the overarching goal of extracting information from a data set and translating the information into a structure that is understandable for the sake of subsequent application. The "knowledge discovery in databases" (also known as "KDD") method includes an analysis step that is known as "data mining." In addition to the phase of raw analysis, it also includes aspects of database management and data management, data pre-processing, model and inference considerations, interestingness measures, complexity considerations, post-processing of newly discovered structures, visualization, and online updating.

Unlocking Herbal Antivirals - A...

Helen Brooks

The groundbreaking book "Unlocking Herbal Antivirals: A Comprehensive Guide to Natural Immune Booster" explores the field of herbal medicine in great detail, emphasizing how effective it is at treating viral infections. This book, written by Helena Brooks, bridges the gap between conventional wisdom and contemporary research to give readers a thorough grasp of herbal antivirals and how they support the body's natural defenses.  
The book starts by explaining the basics of viral infections and going into how viruses enter the body and get past the immune system. Through a combination of historical narratives and modern research, the book vividly depicts humanity's long-standing attempt to use plants' medicinal properties to combat viral infections.  
The book's foundation is an extensive analysis of a broad range of plants recognized for their antiviral properties. Every herb is carefully documented, including information on its traditional applications, botanical traits, and scientific backing for its antiviral properties. Astragalus and licorice root are two lesser-known but equally valuable herbal allies in the fight against viral viruses, as the reader is introduced to a veritable gold mine of plant allies.  
"Unlocking Herbal Antivirals" stands out due to its focus on herbal treatment, supported by evidence. The author painstakingly sorts through the enormous amount of material, condensing intricate scientific conclusions into understandable ideas for readers of all stripes. Making informed judgments about their health is made possible by the book's use of case studies, clinical data, and expert interviews to provide readers with a balanced evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of herbal antivirals.

Beyond Evolution - How New...

Dr. Sy Garte

Is it possible that one of the biggest obstacles to harmonizing science and faith can finally be overcome? Respected biologist and former atheist Sy Garte says the answer is yes. A flash point for much of the science vs. faith divide has been Darwinian evolution. Sharing the same mistaken belief that science contradicts the Bible, especially the Genesis account of creation, many scientists and many Christians have concluded that the worlds of science and religion are at odds. But according to biologist Sy Garte, PhD, evolution is irrelevant to the harmony of faith and science. And revolutionary new developments in biology are providing stronger evidence than ever before of a purposeful creator God. In his new book, Dr. Garte combines the latest research with a biblical worldview as he explains: how scientific progress has been hindered by the reluctance of many biologists to follow the evidence wherever it leads because of their fear of opening the door to theism why misunderstandings about both the Bible and science have caused many people to unnecessarily abandon Christianity why evolution by natural selection isn’t as important to science as many people think―and why it matters how new evidence of purpose, agency and decision-making at the cellular level points to a creator God how a reductionist, purely materialistic view of life ignores new advances in science In Beyond Evolution, Sy Garte challenges both scientists and people of faith to follow the evidence wherever it leads―and argues powerfully for why that evidence warrants a belief in God.

Environmental Destruction - The...

Marcus Klein

This book contains two titles, which are: 
· Deforestation: Forests are among the Earth’s most precious resources, spanning vast landscapes and serving as critical lifelines for countless species, including humanity. Their towering trees and dense undergrowth form a complex ecosystem that sustains biodiversity, provides essential resources, and regulates the natural processes that make life possible. Yet, beneath this quiet resilience, forests face an ongoing crisis. The relentless clearing of these vital ecosystems, known as deforestation, has become one of the greatest threats to our planet’s delicate balance.  
· Pollution: Pollution is a pervasive and urgent global issue that affects every corner of the planet, from the air we breathe to the water we drink and the land we depend on for survival. Over the past century, the rapid pace of industrialization, urbanization, and population growth has contributed significantly to environmental degradation. What was once seen as the price of progress has now become a formidable challenge that threatens the health of humans, animals, and ecosystems alike.

CLEAN 7 - Supercharge the Body’s...

Anonymous

The New York Times bestselling doctor and author of Clean shows us that it doesn’t matter where you live, how old you are, or what symptoms you suffer from, in 7 days you can change the course of your health forever.
The culmination of over thirty years of research, education, and practice, Dr. Alejandro Junger’s revolutionary, seven-day program is based around the core principles of Functional Medicine, Ayurvedic Medicine, and Intermittent Fasting. Each one of these practices alone can have positive and lasting effects, but when used together, they propel the body to health, weight-loss, symptom-reversal, and restoration.
The air we breathe, the water we drink and bathe in, the skin products we use, the detergents we clean with, the medications we take, but mostly the foods we eat, are loaded with toxic chemicals that cause all kinds of dysfunctions. We know this, but we feel powerless to control the effects - constipation, body aches and pains, allergies, migraines, stubborn weight, sleeplessness, depression and anxiety to name a few. In time and left unabated, these symptoms develop into full blown diseases, many of them life-altering, but even in the best-case scenario, they leave us uncomfortable and unwell. CLEAN7 is the medically-proven seven-day answer to this toxic overload. The one-week program you’ll discover in this audiobook offers day-by-day, hour-by-hour guidance with easy-to-follow meal plans and delicious recipes that guarantee success.
“Everything you need to know is in these pages and within one week you will not only feel amazing, look better, be mentally sharper, but you will also have a firm understanding of which foods work best for you and which foods work against you. And you will be able to discover this for yourself without expensive and often inaccurate food allergy tests. CLEAN7 is the health jumpstart that you have been waiting for.” Alejandro Junger, MD
If you have been searching for a book or program to help you take that next step for your overall health, CLEAN7 is the answer. Discover what it truly means to be healthy.

The Boys of Pointe du Hoc -...

Anonymous

""These are the boys of Pointe du Hoc. Theseare the men who took the cliffs. These are thechampions who helped free a continent. Theseare the heroes who helped end a war.""—Ronald Reagan, June 6, 1984,Normandy, France
Acclaimed historian and author of the ""New York Times"" bestselling Tour of Duty Douglas Brinkley tells the riveting account of the brave U.S. Army Rangers who stormed the coast of Normandy on D-Day and the President, forty years later, who paid them homage.
The importance of Pointe du Hoc to Allied planners like General Dwight Eisenhower cannot be overstated. The heavy U.S. and British warships poised in the English Channel had eighteen targets on their bombardment list for D-Day morning. The 100-foot promontory known as Pointe du Hoc -- where six big German guns were ensconced -- was number one. General Omar Bradley, in fact, called knocking out the Nazi defenses at the Pointe the toughest of any task assigned on June 6, 1944. Under the bulldoggish command of Colonel James E. Rudder of Texas, who is profiled here, these elite forces ""Rudder's Rangers"" -- took control of the fortified cliff. The liberation of Europe was under way.
Based upon recently released documents from the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, the Eisenhower Center, Texas A & M University, and the U.S. Army Military History Institute, The Boys of Pointe du Hoc is the first in-depth, anecdotal remembrance of these fearless Army Rangers. With brilliant deftness, Brinkley moves between two events four decades apart to tell the dual story of the making of Reagan's two uplifting 1984 speeches, considered by many to be among the best orations the Great Communicator ever gave, and the actual heroic event, which was indelibly captured as well in the opening scenes of Steven Spielberg's ""Saving Private Ryan"".Just as compellingly, Brinkley tells the story of how Lisa Zanatta Henn, the daughter of a D-Day veteran, forged a special friendship with President Reagan that changed public perceptions of World War II veterans forever. Two White House speechwriters -- Peggy Noonan and Tony Dolan -- emerge in the narrative as the master scribes whose ethereal prose helped Reagan become the spokesperson for the entire World War II generation.
