Master Retail's Autonomous Future — Foundations of Agentic AI for Retail. This book is the definitive, end-to-end playbook showing you how to design, code, and deploy autonomous agents that think, learn, and act in real time—transforming every aspect of your retail business. At its core, Agentic AI refers to AI systems — often called AI agents — that are capable of autonomously performing tasks on behalf of a user or another system by dynamically designing their own workflows and using available tools. It’s important to note that Agentic AI is not just Generative AI with a new name. While Generative AI (like ChatGPT) focuses on producing content in response to prompts, Agentic AI is goal-directed and can operate autonomously over extended periods. Agentic AI systems don’t necessarily require a prompt for each action; they can chain together sequences of decisions and actions to meet a higher-level objective. In other words, Generative AI is often reactive (it does something after you ask), whereas Agentic AI is proactive — it can initiate actions, adjust to changing conditions, and drive processes forward on its own. Agentic AI also tends to incorporate multiple AI techniques (LLMs, traditional algorithms, tools, etc.) to achieve precision in decision-making that pure generative models lack. This means an agentic system might generate content as one step, but it will also make choices, query databases, invoke APIs, or anything else required to reach its goal. Examples in Python.

Whether you're a beginner eager to break into mobile development or an experienced coder seeking to modernize your Android skills, this book is your comprehensive, practical, and career-boosting roadmap. From your first “Hello World” app to full-stack mobile platforms, you’ll learn by doing—writing real apps, solving real problems, and building a portfolio that sets you apart. Kotlin, developed by JetBrains, is a statically typed, modern programming language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Its design philosophy prioritizes conciseness, safety, and interoperability, making it a perfect fit for Android’s complex ecosystem. Unlike Java, which can feel cumbersome with its lengthy syntax, Kotlin allows you to express the same logic in fewer lines, often with cleaner, more readable code.

Python is more than just a programming language; it’s a movement, a philosophy, and a bridge between technical complexity and human creativity. Its rise to prominence in the world of technology is no accident but the result of deliberate design choices, a thriving community, and an unwavering commitment to simplicity and versatility. As the language that powers everything from web development and data science to automation and artificial intelligence, Python has become a universal tool for solving problems and building solutions. The inspiration behind this book is to explore Python not merely as a tool but as a living entity in the world of technology. This isn’t a book about syntax or code snippets—it’s a conversation with Python itself. What makes it so accessible yet powerful? How does it adapt to the demands of cutting-edge innovation while remaining one of the easiest programming languages to learn? What lessons can we draw from Python’s journey that apply to how we approach technology and collaboration?

Measure, improve, and communicate the value of your security program. Every business decision should be driven by data—and cyber security is no exception. In Data-Driven Cybersecurity, you'll master the art and science of quantifiable cybersecurity, learning to harness data for enhanced threat detection, response, and mitigation. You’ll turn raw data into meaningful intelligence, better evaluate the performance of your security teams, and proactively address the vulnerabilities revealed by the numbers. AI is a broad term that encompasses various technologies, including Machine Learning (ML), natural language processing (NLP), and Generative AI with Large Language Models (LLMs). In cybersecurity, AI is leveraged to identify complex patterns and correlations that human analysts might overlook. When trained on high-quality historical and real-time data, Machine Learning models can recognize subtle indicators of compromise, enabling predictive security measures. As you move forward, you’ll discover hands-on examples of Python and Jupyter Notebooks that make collecting and visualizing metrics straight-forward—no advanced coding knowledge is required.

In this book, we aimed to address the topic of computational statistics, which is so important for the scientific community and, especially, for students in graduate programs in statistics. We can confidently state that computational statistics has become, and currently is, one of the main areas of statistics. Moreover, the knowledge in this area can be, and often is, applied in other fields of statistics, engineering, and physics. Bayesian inference is a typical example where a computational approach is generally used. When we conceived this book, we had many doubts about what to cover and how to approach each chosen topic. Thus, we opted to write a book that would allow the reader to go beyond a simple set of instructions, without getting lost in a maze of proofs. On the other hand, we sought to present models and methods in a comprehensive and non-restrictive manner. Wishing to deepen our knowledge of the wonderful programming language Java, we sought to write numerous methods and classes for the various topics covered in this work. We hope this book becomes a good option for professionals in computational statistics and can also be adopted in undergraduate and graduate statistics courses as a textbook for computational statistics. Java is an excellent high-level language that allows us to work with high numerical precision. Thus, we will assume that the reader already has some prior knowledge of the Java language.
