Jeff Prosise是个多面手。作为工程师,他热衷于向其他工程师和软件开发人员宣传人工智能和机器学习的奇迹。他是Wintellect 公司的联合创始人,写过9本书,在杂志上发表过好几百篇文章,在微软培训过几千名开发人员,并在一些规模比较大的全球软件大会上发表过演讲。
另一方面,杰夫在美国橡树岭国家实验室和劳伦斯利弗莫尔国家实验室从事高功率激光系统和聚变能源研究。业余时间,他很喜欢大型遥控喷气式飞机的组装和试飞,还经常前往全球潜水胜地去打卡。2021年公司被收购后,杰夫出任Atmosera公司首席学习官,帮助客户将AI集成到产品中。
The animal on the cover of Applied Machine Learning and AI for Engineers is a festive parrot (Amazona festiva), also known as a festive amazon. Festive parrots live in the tropical forests, woodlands, and coastal mangroves of several South American countries, including Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia. They are rarely found far from water.
Festive parrots are brightly—you might even say festively—colored, medium-sized birds. Their plumage is predominantly a striking green, turning slightly yellow toward the edges of their wings. A motley assortment of colors—including red, blue, and sometimes yellow or orange—adorns their faces.
Festive parrots are a highly social species, usually spotted in pairs or small flocks. Large groups of the birds often gather at night for communal roosts or around a localized food source and are known for being incredibly noisy. They enjoy eating fruits such as mangoes and peach palm, with berries, nuts, seeds, flowers, and leaf buds supplementing their diet.
While still relatively common where their forest habitat remains largely intact, festive parrots have been categorized by IUCN as near threatened due to continued deforestation and predicted declines in habitat.
