  Lakes might be the most misunderstood bodies of water on earth. And while they may seem commonplace, without lakes our world would never be the same. In this revealing look at these lifegiving treasures, John Richard Saylor shows us just how deep our connection to still waters run.  Lakes is an illuminating tour through the most fascinating lakes around the world. Whether it's Lake Vostok, located more than two miles beneath the surface of Antarctica, whose water was last exposed to the atmosphere perhaps a million years ago; Lake Baikal in southern Siberia, the world's deepest and oldest lake formed by a rift in the earth's crust; or Lake Nyos, the so-called Killer Lake that exploded in 1986, resulting in hundreds of deaths, Saylor reveals to us the wonder that exists in lakes found throughout the world. Along the way we learn all the many forms that lakes take—how they come to be and how they feed and support ecosystems—and what happens when lakes vanish.

  Deep learning is an artificial intelligence technology that enables computer vision, speech recognition in mobile phones, machine translation, AI games, driverless cars, and other applications. When we use consumer products from Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, or Baidu, we are often interacting with a deep learning system. In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, computer scientist John Kelleher offers an accessible and concise but comprehensive introduction to the fundamental technology at the heart of the artificial intelligence revolution. 
   
  Kelleher explains some of the basic concepts in deep learning, presents a history of advances in the field, and discusses the current state of the art. He describes the most important deep learning architectures, including autoencoders, recurrent neural networks, and long short-term networks, as well as such recent developments as Generative Adversarial Networks and capsule networks. He also provides a comprehensive introduction to the two fundamental algorithms in deep learning: gradient descent and backpropagation. Finally, Kelleher considers the future of deep learning-major trends, possible developments, and significant challenges.

  Unidentified Submerged Objects...

  There are many books on UFOs and Aliens but most are in the air or over the land. 
  However, you might not be aware that there are also many UFO sightings underwater, or over water. 
  There are even some strong claims of UFO and/or Alien bases underwater. 
   Over 71% of the surface of the Earth is covered in water, much of which is in the Earth’s Oceans. So it makes sense that Aliens visiting Earth would hide in the water or even build bases there. 
   Yes—there are reports from several places of possible Aliens bases beneath the waves. This would make a sensible place to hide if you have advanced technology which will allow you to hide underwater. 
   Some of the suspected underwater bases are near Malibu-California, Gulf Breeze-Florida, and the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific. There are probably a lot more submerged base locations we don’t know about all over the world. 
   In this book I’ve provided as many Unidentified Submerged Object stories as I could research. I think you will find these stories to be very interesting.
