Introduction to Machine Learning with Applications in Information Security
Introduction to Machine Learning with Applications in Information Security provides a class-tested introduction to a wide variety of machine learning algorithms reinforced through realistic applications. The book is accessible and doesn’t prove theorems or otherwise dwell on mathematical theory. The goal is to present topics at an intuitive level with just enough detail to clarify the underlying concepts. The book covers core machine learning topics in-depth including Hidden Markov Models Principal Component Analysis Support Vector Machines and Clustering. It also includes coverage of Nearest Neighbors Neural Networks Boosting and AdaBoost Random Forests Linear Discriminant Analysis Vector Quantization Naive Bayes Regression Analysis Conditional Random Fields and Data Analysis. Most of the examples in the book are drawn from the field of information security with many of the machine learning applications specifically focused on malware. The applications presented are designed to demystify machine learning techniques by providing straightforward scenarios. Many of the exercises in this book require some programming and basic computing concepts are assumed in a few of the application sections. However anyone with a modest amount of programming experience should have no trouble with this aspect of the book. Instructor resources including PowerPoint slides lecture videos and other relevant material are provided on an accompanying website: http://www. cs. sjsu. edu/~stamp/ML/. For the reader’s benefit the figures in the book are also available in electronic form and in color. About the Author Mark Stamp has been a Professor of Computer Science at San Jose State University since 2002. Prior to that he worked at the National Security Agency (NSA) for seven years and a Silicon Valley startup company for two years. He received his Ph. D. from Texas Tech University in 1992. His love affair with machine learning began in the early 1990s when he was working at the NSA and continues today at SJSU where he has supervised vast numbers of master’s student projects most of which involve a combination of information security and machine learning.

You can always find the postage cost and estimated delivery date in a seller’s listing. You'll then be able to see a full list of delivery options during checkout. These can include: Express delivery, Standard delivery, Economy delivery, Click & Collect, Free local collection from seller.
Returns
Your options for returning an item vary depending on what you want to return, why you want to return it, and the seller's return policy. If the item is damaged or doesn't match the listing description, you can return it even if the seller's returns policy says they don't accept returns. If you've changed your mind and no longer want an item, you can still request a return, but the seller doesn't have to accept it. If the buyer changes their mind about a purchase and wants to return an item, they may need to pay return postage costs, depending on the seller's return policy. Sellers can provide a return postage address and additional return postage information for the buyer. Sellers pay for return postage if there's a problem with the item. For example, if the item doesn't match the listing description, is damaged or defective or is counterfeit. By law, customers in the European Union also have the right to cancel the purchase of an item within 14 days beginning from the day you receive, or a third party indicated by you (other than the carrier) receives, the last good ordered by you (if delivered separately). This applies to all products except for digital items (e.g. Digital Music) that are provided immediately to you with your acknowledgement, and other items such as video, DVD, audio, video games, Sex and Sensuality products and software products where the item has been unsealed.
Refunds
Sellers have to offer a refund for certain items only if they are faulty, such as: Personalised items and custom-made items, Perishable items, Newspapers and magazines, Unwrapped CDs DVDs and computer software. If you used your PayPal balance or bank account to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your PayPal account balance. If you used a credit or debit card to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your card. The seller will effect the refund within three working days but it may take up to 30 days for Paypal to process the transfer. For payments funded partially by a card and partially by your balance/bank, the money taken from your card will go back to your card and the remainder will return to your PayPal balance.
