Fundamentals of Machine Learning Chapter Summary The book, “Deep Learning with Python” by François Chollet provides an introduction to the field of deep learning with the use of python language as well as the robust Keras library. Deep learning is presented as a form of artificial intelligence grounded on multiple layered neural networks. The book is organized into two parts with about nine chapters, in Chapters 8 and 9, which are “Generative deep learning” and “Conclusion,” which are one of the fascinating topics. Chollet provides a basic understanding of deep generative learning along with a conclusion to the ideas of machine learning. Chapter 8 focuses on the next generation with the use of LSTM and implementation of the “DeepDream.” Also, performing the transference of the neural style, the variational autoencoders, and a deep understanding of the functionality of the generative adversarial networks. On the idea of how the recurrent neural networks are utilized in the generation of data that is sequential, Chollet (2018) holds that it is not constrained to the artistic generation of content. It has been effectively utilized in…
financial literacy Introduction My parents were never so mindful of how I spent my money given to me for holidays or the weekly upkeep while going to school. I would be given cash, and often, if not in all cases, ends up finishing the whole amount given to me way before the stipulated time. In most cases, the money which I was allocated for the entire week would end up ending on Thursdays and, in some cases, on Wednesday. This was due to my financial illiteracy. This had been a significant cause of the problems which I used to experience in school. I did not have much knowledge considering financial literacy until an incident that taught me much about financial literacy and its importance. One day after school, I went home and found my parents having a little argument about how much money was being spent on one essential household expenditure. According to my father, the typical household bills were almost doubling in just six months while the family size had remained the same. His worry was why the regular…
Re-Energizing The Classroom The coronavirus outbreak is an unprecedented public health crisis that has exposed the worst in colleges and university administrators across the world. The pandemic has got most universities off guard. Many universities and colleges in the US and world at large have closed to respond to the crises leaving many students stranded without options. Students were given very short notice to leave their colleges and universities, and this has left their minds with imminent questions (Zhang, Wu, Zhao, & Zhang, 2020). Higher education institutions have profoundly been affected by the crises as they have been forced to adopt online teaching. The challenge is that most students lack stable households that sustain remote learning, and others are suffering because of different time zones. Some universities are hoping to do better by responding privately to their students’ concerns and tackling their issues for greater importance. Universities have implemented some activities like contacting exams online and setting an approximate grading system for accessibility and fairness. The institutions are giving their students a say over what could lead to their better…

DIABETES AND DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS Diabetic ketoacidosis is a medical emergency that arises when there is insulin deficiency (Chang & Yang, 2016). Often, DKA is a complication of type I diabetes that results in the body breaking fat at a faster rate, hence, accumulation of acids in the blood, which eventually leads to coma or death. According to the Centers for Disease and Control (2017), approximately 100 million US adults have diabetes. In 2015, diabetes was the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, while 25% of the United States’ population have diabetes but are not aware of it. Diabetic ketoacidosis develops when a diabetic patient does not adhere to medications, have infections, have undiagnosed type I diabetes, or if the patient becomes ill. A systematic review by Stolpe on adherence to diabetes medications revealed that there was poor compliance with diabetic therapy among diabetic patients in the US (Stolpe et al. 2016). Also, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2017), the rate of hospitalizations from DKA increased by 54.9% from 2009 to 2014, which…
complexity of healthcare With the growing complexity of healthcare, practice problems are bound to rise. Such a situation will demand enhanced research into clinical issues and consistent changes in practice to alleviate the problem areas. Consequently, a large cadre of nursing practice and research scholars would be necessary. This group of individuals plays an integral role in influencing change. The cadre of scholars impacts practice changes in various ways. Firstly, they utilize their knowledge of population health and clinical medicine to identify areas that require change. It is imperative to note that implementing change without having a conception of the underlying problem is improbable; thus, problem identification is the first step in the change-in-practice process. Secondly, they help to measure and evaluate the effectiveness of changes in practice through evidence-based research like pre- and post-test intervention mechanisms (Saunders & Vehviläinen-Julkunen, 2016). Through this act, the researchers may influence change by acting as a means of quality control. The work of the cadre is critical in translating evidence into practice. According to Trautman et al. (2018), the identification of practice problems…

Magic Moment Study Case Introduction The magic moment study is a research carried out by Christina Gibson-Davis on biological and stepfather marriage occurrences among women after out-of-marriage birth. The research was a quantitative study involving one thousand nine hundred and seven women. The data used in the investigation was from the USA NSFG survey report on “children born to unmarried” women (Gibson-Davis, 2014). Also, the study classified the participants into three racial groups, which are Black, White, and Hispanic mothers. The research intended to investigate the presence of a ‘magic moment’ between new out-of-marriage mothers and fathers that leads to biological marriages after childbirth. Additionally, the study evaluated the frequency of divorce between biological and stepfather marriages after out-of-marriage childbearing. Finally, the author attempts to correlate the results of the study with other implicit assumptions about a child’s well-being in biological marriages compared to stepfather marriages. The research by Gibson-Davis (2014) concludes that biological marriages after out-of-marriage childbirth are more stable than stepfather marriages. The Research Question or Hypothesis in the Article Gibson-Davis’ research investigated two assumptions that had spurred…

Completion of a first degree is a guarantee to secure an excellent job in the competitive market of Saudi Arabia. However, many students are torn between progressing with education to obtain a higher degree or proceed to secure a job. If a student decides to pursue a higher degree, he has to decide whether to study in an Arabian university or go abroad to study there. People have different opinions where some opt to study at local universities while others prefer elsewhere; thus, the choice depends on the student. This essay will factor out the argument that it is better to study for a higher degree locally considering the advantages of making links with international students, new cultures, and the boost it will have on your curriculum vitae. To start with, when a student studies abroad, he has the ability to connect with other students from different parts of the world. Everyone has a diverse background from the other,…
