A Northern California teen was arrested Wednesday for hacking a school district's computer system and changing the grades of up to 15 students. Authorities said they arrested David Rotaro, a sophomore at Ygnacio Valley High School in Concord, California, for infiltrating the school district's computer system. Rotaro, 16, said it was like "stealing candy from a baby," according to KGO-TV, an ABC affiliate in San Francisco. It took him five minutes to design a "phishing email," that he sent out to swipe login information from school faculty. Authorities didn't release Rotaro's name, however, he confessed to having committed the crime during an interview with KGO-TV.

Volkswagen has held its first Future Training Forum in Wolfsburg to discuss issues including the digitalization of its vocational training programmes and future learning environments. Conference participants included board members, human resources managers, training experts, Works Council members, young people's representatives and apprentices, and Volkswagen plans to repeat this exercise each year at different plants. Around 50 apprentices presented and explained some of the projects they were participating in, including e-learning on i-Pads they had received; the pilot'eKISS' mobile maintenance project involving collaboration with IT specialists on app design, development and implementation; and the use of augmented reality goggles. AR goggles are being used in training procedures for directly targeted information and assistance, and are said to promote self-teaching skills. A further program underway is called Nano-Bug, and in this, apprentices are encouraged to develop a understanding of the latest digitalization technologies, including the programming of microcontrollers.

BI-RADS DATA SCIENCE FOR SWIFT/PYTHON HACKERS, is a course designed by an iOS Developer for iOS and Python Developers. You will learn iPython enough to implement algorithms used in Data Science with little effort. As a Swift Programmer you will find the syntax needed to flow through iPython in Jupyter a breeze!!! After grasping a thorough knowledge of supervised learning in the first two sections, you will dive into xCode and write a Logistic Regression Binary Based application. In your final project, you will build BIRADS, a Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System that takes the output data from a Neural Network and assigns a BI-RADS Category given input from the following features...

Helsinki University and tech strategy firm Reaktor say they want to make Finland the world's most educated country in the field of artificial intelligence. The academic and business partners say they want Finland to become forerunners in AI, and have developed an online course covering the quickly-growing technology open to anyone, free of charge. "The Elements of Artificial Intelligence" online course is entirely in English and offered to people who are interested in learning more about AI. User interface designer at Reaktor Janina Fagerlund says people might not know it, bu their lives are already affected - one way or another - by AI every single day. As a perhaps unexpected example, Fagerlund says that AI is used in industrial food production to sort produce and other items at food processing facilities.

Have you ever heard about Wikidata? If not, you might think of Wikipediafirst -- and that is not wrong. Wikidata is also a project of the Wikimedia Foundation. "Wikidata acts as central storage for the structured data of its Wikimedia sister projects including Wikipedia (…)." Loosely, you could describe Wikidata as Wikipedias database with over 46million data items (April 2018). And in line with Wikimedia's mission, everyone can add and edit data, and use it for free.

Python is a powerful, modern programming language that has the capabilities required for experienced programmers, while being easy enough for beginners to learn. Python is a well-developed, stable, and fun programming language that is suitable for complex and simple development projects. Programmers love Python because of how simple and easy it is to use. This course has everything you need to get started with Python. Once we're done with that, we'll learn about functions and files in Python.

Deep Learning is a type of Artificial Intelligence where we give the computer the ability to learn, rather than tell it what to learn. Here at MPCR, we look at Deep Learning as a member of multiple fields, if not every field. AI has its roots in Psychology and Biology, and we strive to remain true to those origins when we consider Deep Learning as a Theory of the Brain. However, it is also highly computational and is an important tool for today's Data Scientists. Deep Learning has already begun to answer questions in fields such as Medicine, Biology, Chemistry, and Engineering, and it is gaining momentum.

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a hot topic into the Machine Learning field. This course is focused in practical approach with many examples and developing functional applications. This course starts explaining you, how to get the basic tools for coding and also making a review of the main machine learning concepts and algorithms. After that this course offers you a complete explanation of the main tools in NLP such as: Text Data Assemble, Text Data Preprocessing, Text Data Visualization, Model Building and finally developing NLP applications. In this course you will find a concise review of the theory with graphical explanations and for coding it uses Python language and NLTK library.

Reinforcement learning (RL) is hot! It allows programmers to create software agents that learn to take optimal actions to maximize reward, through trying out different strategies in a given environment. This course will take you through all the core concepts in Reinforcement Learning, transforming a theoretical subject into tangible Python coding exercises with the help of OpenAI Gym. The videos will first guide you through the gym environment, solving the CartPole-v0 toy robotics problem, before moving on to coding up and solving a multi-armed bandit problem in Python. As the course ramps up, it shows you how to use dynamic programming and TensorFlow-based neural networks to solve GridWorld, another OpenAI Gym challenge.

If you're looking at this course, you are already interested in Python, and I'm not going to sell you on it. You already know that this popular language is great for solving a huge variety of tasks from REST api development, system scripting, numerical analysis, manipulating data, data analysis to machine learning and AI. But do you want to learn idiomatic Python? Do you want to understand why certain things work the way they do in Python? Do you want to learn best practices in Python, and common pitfalls Python developers can fall into?
