| "Test-Driven Android" |
"In Test Driven Android Development, we discuss how good Object Oriented Design and Test Driven Design are complementary. We create a simple JUnit test, using a stub object that represents a data feed. Next, we demonstrate how to write a test driven design unit test for a Java class that performs network operations. After that, we create a unit test for a data access object that uses a JSON data feed. Our test includes JUnit 4 asserts and Hamcrest-style asserst. Then, we discuss blockers that prevent us from writing unit tests, and how we can use Mockito, code coverage, and automatic test execution to ameliorate those blockers. Finally, we look at UI testing with Espresso, and multi-platform testing with Firebase.About The AuthorBrandan Jones has been an Adjunct Assistant Professor for the University of Cincinnati since the 2000-2001 school year. He has taught many courses in programming, from introductory programming to full stack development. Brandan proposed and created the first Android programming course at the University of Cincinnati, and has been teaching it ever since. He reapplied this course and taught it at Northwestern Universitys School of Continuing Studies as well.Brandan is the creator of the Android app PlantPlacescom Mobile, which allows users to search for plants by color, and GPS plants. He wrote this app in 2012, using TDD principles. He used selected JSON feeds from that app in the examples in this video course.Brandans mix of both academic and professional experience means that he brings real-world concepts to the classroom. Most of his high level classes include hands on experience with unit testing, scrum, and distributed version control systems.Brandan holds a BS in Accounting and Management Information Systems from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. He also earned a BS in Horticulture from the University of Cincinnatis College of Design, Art, Architecture and Planning, and a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Cincinnati, Lindner College of Business, with concentrations in Operations Management and Real Estate Finance."

| "R: Complete Machine Learning Solutions" |
"Are you interested in understanding machine learning concepts and building real-timeprojects with R, but dont know where to start? Then, this is the perfect course for you!The aim of machine learning is to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations, and find useful information from data. In addition to this, through incorporation with data analysis, machine learning can be used to perform predictive analysis. With machine learning, the analysis of business operations and processes is not limited to human scale thinking; machine scale analysis enables businesses to capture hidden values in big data.Machine learning has similarities to the human reasoning process. Unlike traditional analysis, the generated model cannot evolve as data is accumulated. Machine learning can learn from the data that is processed and analyzed. In other words, the more data that is processed, the more it can learn.R, as adialect of GNU-S, is a powerful statistical language that can be used to manipulate and analyze data. Additionally, R provides many machine learning packages and visualization functions, which enable users to analyze data on the fly. Most importantly, R is open source and free.Using R greatly simplifies machine learning. All you need to know is how each algorithm can solveyour problem, and then you can simply use a writtenpackage to quickly generate prediction models on data with a few command lines.By taking this course, you will gain a detailed and practical knowledge of R and machine learning concepts to build complex machine learning models. What details do you cover in this course?We start off with basic R operations, reading data into R, manipulating data, forming simple statistics for visualizing data. We will then walk through the processes of transforming, analyzing, and visualizing the RMS Titanic data. You will also learn how to perform descriptive statistics.This course will teach you to use regression models. We will then see how to fit data in tree-based classifier, Naive Bayes classifier, and so on.We then move on to introducing powerful classification networks, neural networks, and support vector machines. During this journey, we will introduce the power of ensemble learners to produce better classification and regression results.We will see how to apply the clustering technique to segment customers and further compare differences between each clustering method.We will discover associated terms and underline frequent patterns from transaction data.We will go through the process of compressing and restoring images, using the dimension reduction approach and R Hadoop, starting from setting up the environment to actual big data processing and machine learning on big data.By the end of this course, we will build our own project in the e-commerce domain.This course will take you from the very basics of R to creating insightful machine learning models with R.We have combined the bestof the following Packt products:R Machine Learning Solutions by Yu-Wei, Chiu (David Chiu)Machine Learning with R Cookbook by Yu-Wei, Chiu (David Chiu)R Machine Learning By Example by Raghav Bali and Dipanjan SarkarTestimonials:The source content have been received well by the audience.

Then, we willmove on to customizing the plots and then cover interactive plots. We will then cover time series plots, heat maps, dendograms. Following that, we will look at maps and how to make them interactive. We will then turn our attention to building an interactive report using the ggvis package and publishing reports and plots using Shiny. Finally, we will cover data in higher dimensions which will complete our extensive tour of the data visualization capabilities possible using R.This course has been authored by some of the best in their fields:Dr. Fabio VeronesiIn his career, Dr. Veronesi worked at several topics related to environmental research: digital soil mapping, cartography and shaded relief, renewable energy and transmission line siting. During this time Dr. Veronesi has specialized in the application of spatial statistical techniques to environmental data.Atmajitsinh GohilAtmajitsinh Gohil works as a senior consultant at a consultancy firm in New York City.
