A rich, narrative explanation of the mathematics that has brought us machine learning and the ongoing explosion of artificial intelligence Machine learning systems are making life-altering decisions for us: approving mortgage loans, determining whether a tumor is cancerous, or deciding if someone gets bail. They now influence developments and discoveries in chemistry, biology, and physics the study of genomes, extrasolar planets, even the intricacies of quantum systems. And all this before large language models such as ChatGPT came on the scene. We are living through a revolution in machine learning-powered AI that shows no signs of slowing down. This technology is based on relatively simple mathematical ideas, some of which go back centuries, including linear algebra and calculus, the stuff of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century mathematics. It took the birth and advancement of computer science and the kindling of 1990s computer chips designed for video games to ignite the explosion of AI that we see today. In this enlightening book, Anil Ananthaswamy explains the fundamental math behind machine learning, while suggesting intriguing links between artificial and natural intelligence. Might the same math underpin them both? As Ananthaswamy resonantly concludes, to make safe and effective use of artificial intelligence, we need to understand its profound capabilities and limitations, the clues to which lie in the math that makes machine learning possible.

Il catalogo Caravaggio 2025, edito da Marsilio Arte e curato da Francesca Cappelletti e Maria Cristina Terzaghi, accompagna l’omonima mostra allestita a Palazzo Barberini dalle Gallerie Nazionali d’Arte Antica in collaborazione con Galleria Borghese (7 marzo – 6 luglio 2025), un progetto tra i più importanti e ambiziosi dedicati a Michelangelo Merisi detto Caravaggio (1571-1610). Riunendo alcune delle opere più celebri, l’esposizione vuole offrire una nuova e approfondita riflessione sulla rivoluzione artistica e culturale di Caravaggio, esplorando per la prima volta in un contesto così ampio l’innovazione che introdusse nel panorama culturale, religioso e sociale del suo tempo. Il volume illustra gli snodi biografici e gli sviluppi dello stile dell’artista attraverso saggi redatti da studiosi che, in ambito internazionale, hanno maggiormente lavorato su questi temi. Il catalogo si apre con il saggio di Keith Christiansen che traccia la parabola artistica del grande maestro, mentre i contributi delle due curatrici, Maria Cristina Terzaghi e Francesca Cappelletti, si concentrano sull’arrivo del grande maestro a Roma e sul collezionismo delle sue opere da parte delle grandi famiglie romane. Giuseppe Porzio ripercorre gli anni meridionali dell’artista, tra Napoli, Malta e la Sicilia; Alessandro Zaccuri propone una riflessione sul legame di Caravaggio con la spiritualità del suo tempo; Gianni Papi affronta uno degli argomenti più dibattuti, ovvero la ritrattistica – vera o presunta – del Merisi; Francesca Curti presenta, a partire da documenti d’epoca, le figure femminili ritratte dall’artista; Claudio Strinati e Stefano Causa affrontano un excursus storico delle mostre dedicate a Caravaggio e la sua fortuna critica, a partire dalla famosa mostra di Milano del 1951 che di fatto fa riscoprire l’artista dopo secoli di oblio; chiude Rossella Vodret con un’attenta analisi sulla tecnica esecutiva dell’artista. Le opere in mostra – ventiquattro e tutte di mano del Merisi – vengono analizzate attraverso schede dettagliate e approfondite che danno conto dei principali problemi critici, attributivi e di datazione. L’intero catalogo è illustrato con ricchezza di dettagli e le immagini coprono quasi interamente la produzione del maestro; completa il volume un’ampia bibliografia.

A step-by-step system for mastering trading psychology.Think about your most costly and recurring trading mistakes. Chances are that they’re related to common errors, such as chasing price, cutting winners short, forcing mediocre trades, and overtrading. You’ve likely tried to fix these errors by improving your technical skills, and yet they persist. That’s because the real source of these mistakes is not technical - they actually stem from greed, fear, anger, or problems with confidence and discipline.If you are like most traders, you probably overlook or misunderstand mental and emotional obstacles. Or worse, you might think you know how to manage them, but you don’t, and end up losing control at the worst possible time. You’re leaving too much money on the table, which will either prevent you from being profitable or realizing your potential.While many trading psychology books offer sound advice, they don’t show you how to do the necessary work. That’s why you haven’t solved the problems hurting your performance. With straight talk and practical solutions, Jared Tendler brings a new voice to trading psychology. In The Mental Game of Trading, he busts myths about emotions, greed, and discipline, and shows you how to look past the obvious to identify the real reasons you’re struggling.This book is different from anything else on the market. You’ll get a step-by-step system for discovering the cause of your problems and eliminating them once and for all. And through real stories of traders from around the world who have successfully used Tendler’s system, you’ll learn how to tackle your problems, improve your day-to-day performance, and increase your profits.Whether you’re an independent or institutional trader, and regardless of whether you trade equities, forex, or cryptocurrencies, you can use this system to improve your decision-making and execution. Finally, you have a way to reach your potential as a trader. Now’s the time to make it happen.
