Fault Line of Modern Finance: Quantitative Analysis by Artificial Intelligence
The dream of duplicating human intelligence may be as old as humanity itself. 'We want to ask a computer, "Tell me about the merger of corporation X and corporation Y' No, I am not going to talk about Prof Raghuram Rajan and his fault line fundamentals. But for those rare breeds who are new to the concept of Prof Raghu..... Prof Rajan wrote a book on Fault Lines in 2010 to let us understand and appreciate the hidden fractures of financial crisis post 2008 which is still threatening the world economy as the name itself suggests. At the Federal Reserve annual Jackson Hole conference in 2005, Rajan had warned about the growing risks in the financial system and proposed policies that would reduce such risks. Now the left has figured out who to blame for the financial crisis: Greedy Wall Street bankers, especially at Goldman Sachs. The right has figured it out, too: It was government's fault, especially Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. According to a recent report, the quickly-changing landscape of alternative investing strategies has seen a sudden rise in the prominence of artificial intelligence-based (AI) funds, and that many of these funds are vastly outperforming so-called "traditional quants," as well as human-led management teams. Fascinated by the modern concepts of finance and my innate passion for mathematics, I kept reading and collecting nuances from many sources for my own understanding but then thought to share with my small world of friends, peers and audience... the story of fault line in modern finance: Invasion of AI in Quant world

It's the dawn of the second millennia of space flight. Humanity has survived numerous wars, a couple of hard singularities, several religious events and first contact with a vastly superior alien species and, despite all that, for better or worse it remains resolutely and bloody mindedly human. People have spread across a thousand star systems in a very loose federation of entirely disinterested worlds. Commerce flows thanks to kind of person who live, thanks to the vague nature of time in FTL travel, permanently out of step with the rest of humanity and trade in exotic wares; bringing unique experiences to the jaded populations of the inner systems and making a living, of sorts. One them is a about to have a really bad day. The kind of once in a lifetime, why didn't karma just kill you and bring you back as an ant, kind of day. Tim Symbles. Captain. Ship owner. Alcoholic. Barely solvent. Is about to be made an offer he can't refuse and escort a team of crack alien commando archaeologists to retrieve something. The trouble is everybody else in the galaxy seems to want it too and, if necessary, over the dead bodies of Symbles and his crew. The payday could be fantastic. If he can just keep everybody alive long enough to collect it.Truck Line - a comedy, space adventure in the tradition of Douglas Adams and Harry Harrison.

Enhance your K9’s detection capabilities and unlock the power of its nose with scent and odour line-up training. The use of detector dogs to find or identify scents or odours has a long history, and has risen dramatically in recent decades in all different areas of detection, including drugs, explosives, missing persons, and more. But even with this increase, there remains a lack of information about the different ways to train dogs in scent identification and detection, and even less about the many ways that training can go wrong. K9 training experts Resi Gerritsen, Ruud Haak, and Simon Prins wrote this book so all trainers have access to the knowledge they need to train capable detector dogs. This book introduces both professional and amateur dog handlers to the basics of scent and odour line-up training and their applications in K9 scent identification and detection work. From training schedules to the fascinating history of nose work in policing, this book is designed to be a practical, accessible, and informative resource for K9 officers, professional or volunteer search-and-rescue workers, competitive dog trainers, and enthusiastic hobbyists alike.

On-line Analytical Processing Systems for Business

On-line Analytical Processing Systems for Business

Robert J. Thierauf

Praeger Publishers Inc

On-line analytical processing (OLAP) is clearly a new approach to information system technology—offering a much-needed way to make informed decisions better and faster. One of its most important characteristics is multidimensional analysis—analysis that goes beyond the conventional two-dimensional analysis and provides users with rapid retrieval of data from organizational databases, data warehouses, or both. Not only that, but most importantly, says Dr. Thierauf, it allows users to look at different dimensions of the same data, thus enabling them to do analyses across departmental and even corporate boundaries. How it works and OLAP's many benefits to aid users in the public and private sectors is spelled out here, comprehensively yet concisely, and with the author's customary well-developed examples and clear prose. His book will be important reading for people at all levels of management and in all types of organizations. Another way of viewing OLAP is getting a typical company out of the custom-report-writing business and into the data-cube-server building business. An OLAP data structure can be thought of as a Rubik's Cube of data that users can twist and twirl in different ways to work through what-if and what-happened scenerios to get at the whys of the situation. Within an OLAP environment, the focus is on performing dictionary definition and maintenance as well as mapping flat files or relational columns to dimensions and measures. Although this may sound like a lot of work, managing one data cube is more efficient than writing a number of custom reports. Currently, some vendors provide administrative tools to get the data into the cubes in the first place, in the proper form, and on a regular basis. Hence, the job of managing data has been simplified for users.

Almost two decades after it emerged as an essential business tool, competitive intelligence is still finding its way. Despite its recognized importance, companies struggle to acquire the kind of intelligence they need and measure its effectiveness and value. This book provides essential tools for selecting the right kind of CI and assessing its contributions to a company's financial performance.The authors identify three fundamental, intertwined mistakes a company can make, showing how to evaluate them and repair the damage they may have done. McGonagle and Vella dissect the current state of CI, survey its evolution into five distinct yet overlapping types, develop a framework for determining which types fit special needs, and evaluate means of communicating CI up and down the line. They discuss the most common raw data source categories—the bases of support for all CI analyses—and the workings of metrics in general. CI professionals and related end users are provided with a process they can employ immediately, right out of the box, which will not only help them select the right metric but will prove invaluable as they seek to evaluate the future metrics that are sure to come.

From much-lauded artist Laura Ljungkvist, whose Follow the Line series earned praise for its clean, Scandinavian style and ingenious premise, comes a playful board book perfect for the toddler and pre-K set, and sure to please parents who are fans of modern design. Starting on the front cover, and winding its way across each page to the end, a single line forms different shapes that demonstrate opposites ("clean" or "messy") in Ljungkvist's signature modern style. Children can follow the playful and ingenious line, which winds its way across brightly colored and patterned pages, till it ultimately forms "you" and "me," for a warmly charming ending. Laura Ljungkvist has developed a fan base as the author and illustrator of numerous children's titles, including the award-winning series Follow the Line (Viking, 2006-2011), "Pepi Sings a New Song" (Beach Lane, 2010) and, most recently, as the illustrator of Mem Fox's"Yoo-Hoo, Lady Bug" (Beach Lane, 2013).

More than ten years in the making, this volume of 87 new poems by Steve Luttrell, former poet laureate of Portland, Maine, conjures the beauty of the New England Coast and the enduring power of nature. In sparse, accessible verse, the poet evokes the wild Maine landscape--the rocks and wildlife, the shifting planets, and the surging waters--at the same time that he casts an observant eye on his fellow creatures. He deftly melds the eternal and the transitory, the extraordinary and the routine in lines such as, "the light of long/dead stars/and the dogs/sleeping/under the bed." He imbues the small routines of daily life with quiet significance and casts the enormity of the cosmos to human scale. Luttrell is the founder and publishing editor of the acclaimed Cafe Review, which has published for a remarkable 25 years and printed the work of twelve Pulitzer Prize winners. He hosts his own TV Show (Poet's Cafe), and has run the historical Portland Club, giving him a strong presence in the region and a large following among New England poets and writers. His intimate, unassuming voice is driven by a musician's sense of rhythm and a deceptive simplicity: "and the ships/at anchor/an emblem of/waiting/but March/is a time/of endurance/and the channel/waters deep/so waiting is/what we will do/knowing/there can be no/other way." The author has published five chapbooks and six major editions of poetry, including Home Movies, Conditions, The Vagaries: A Winter's Sequence, and Pemaquid and Other Poems. Plumb Line secures Luttell's place as an important voice in contemporary poetry.
On-Line Monitoring Systems & Computer Tool Interoperability
This book presents new results in the construction and methodology of tools to support the development of parallel programs. It focuses on tools for debugging and performance analysis. We can observe two major trends in recent years: on one hand, tool developers want to solve the problem of tool interoperability. This question is crucial for application developers as they want to apply different tools from different producers to their programs at the same time. An infrastructure that provides interoperability could allow us to see synergetic effects when using multiple tools, thus increasing the programmer's productivity during implementation and testing. On the other hand, there are substantial efforts to automate parts of parallel program development. While this tool automation is not a new area, there remains much to be done. Parallel program development remains the domain of the expert and aficionado. This area continues to be an important one for the programmers and users of high performance computing.

This book examines the twenty-year period that saw the US fleet shrink under the pressures of arms-limitation treaties, and then grow again to a world-class force. The authors trace the Navy’s evolution from a fleet centred around slow battleships to one that deployed most of the warship types that proved so essential in World War II. Both the older battleships and the newer ships are captured in stunning period photographs that have never before been published. An authoritative yet lively text explains how and why the newer ships and aircraft came into being. Desperately short of men and funding, the Navy nevertheless pioneered carrier aviation, shipboard electronics, codebreaking and, with the Marines, amphibious warfare– elements that made America’s later victory in the Pacific possible. Based on years of study of official records, this book presents a comprehensive view of the foundation of a navy that would become the world’s largest and most formidable. From their adventures on Yangtze River gunboats to carrier landings on the converted battle cruisers Saratoga and Lexington, the men are profiled along with their ships. This combination of popular history with archival history will appeal to a general audience of naval enthusiasts. Thomas C. Hone, an executive in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, is the author of American and British Aircraft Carrier Development, 1919–1941. He has taught at the Naval War College and the National Defense University among other institutions. Trent Hone has published several articles on the US Navy’s tactical development before World War II. Both father and son are residents of Arlington, Virginia.
