Extend the capabilities of AngularJS and build dynamic web applications by creating customized directives with this selection of more than 30 recipes About This Book Learn how to extend HTML templates in new ways to build even better web applications with exceptional interface components Build reusable directives for large-scale AngularJS applications Create even sophisticated and impressive modern web apps with ease Who This Book Is For This book is for developers with AngularJS experience who want to extend their knowledge to create or customize directives in any type of AngularJS application. Some experience of modern tools such as Yeoman and Bower would be helpful, but is not a requirement. What You Will Learn Build and customize external HTML templates, and create simple, effective directives for common interface components Learn how to use Controller function and any Bootstrap UI directives to manipulate the DOM and how to transform any UI library into AngularJS directives Construct an AngularJS application to use shared components and validate your HTML5 Discover how to use jQuery events and manipulate the DOM using jQuery UI inside AngularJS applications Create custom directives for ongoing projects using Yeoman generators, and find out how to implement standalone directives Build reusable directives for Large AngularJS applications and extend directives to use dynamic templates Write unit test for directives using the Karma runner and Jasmine’s behavior-driven development framework In Detail AngularJS directives are at the center of what makes it such an exciting – and important - web development framework. With directives, you can take greater control over HTML elements on your web pages – they ‘direct’ Angular’s HTML compiler to behave in the way you want it to. It makes building modern web applications a much more expressive experience, and allows you to focus more closely on improving the way that user interaction impacts the DOM and the way your app manages data. If you’re already using Angular, you probably recognize the power of directives to transform the way you understand and build your projects – but customizing and creating your own directives to harness AngularJS to its full potential can be more challenging. This cookbook shows you how to do just that – it’s a valuable resource that demonstrates how to use directives at every stage in the workflow. Packed with an extensive range of solutions and tips that AngularJS developers shouldn’t do without, you’ll find out how to make the most of directives. You’ll find recipes demonstrating how to build a number of different user interface components with directives, so you can take complete control over how users interact with your application. You’ll also learn how directives can simplify the way you work by creating reusable directives – by customizing them with Yeoman you can be confident that you’re application has the robust architecture that forms the bedrock of the best user experiences. You’ll also find recipes that will help you learn how to unit test directives, so you can be confident in the reliability and performance of your application. Whether you’re looking for guidance to dive deeper into AngularJS directives, or you want a reliable resource, relevant to today’s web development challenges, AngularJS Directives Cookbook delivers everything you need in an easily accessible way. Style and approach This book easy-to-follow guide is packed with hands-on recipes to help you build modular AngularJS applications with custom directives. It presents tips on using the best tools and various ways to use these tools for front-end development.

Control your machine learning algorithms using test-driven development to achieve quantifiable milestones About This Book Build smart extensions to pre-existing features at work that can help maximize their value Quantify your models to drive real improvement Take your knowledge of basic concepts, such as linear regression and Na?ve Bayes classification, to the next level and productionalize their models Play what-if games with your models and techniques by following the test-driven exploration process Who This Book Is For This book is intended for data technologists (scientists, analysts, or developers) with previous machine learning experience who are also comfortable reading code in Python. You may be starting, or have already started, a machine learning project at work and are looking for a way to deliver results quickly to enable rapid iteration and improvement. Those looking for examples of how to isolate issues in models and improve them will find ideas in this book to move forward. What You Will Learn Get started with an introduction to test-driven development and familiarize yourself with how to apply these concepts to machine learning Build and test a neural network deterministically, and learn to look for niche cases that cause odd model behaviour Learn to use the multi-armed bandit algorithm to make optimal choices in the face of an enormous amount of uncertainty Generate complex and simple random data to create a wide variety of test cases that can be codified into tests Develop models iteratively, even when using a third-party library Quantify model quality to enable collaboration and rapid iteration Adopt simpler approaches to common machine learning algorithms Take behaviour-driven development principles to articulate test intent In Detail Machine learning is the process of teaching machines to remember data patterns, using them to predict future outcomes, and offering choices that would appeal to individuals based on their past preferences. Machine learning is applicable to a lot of what you do every day. As a result, you can’t take forever to deliver your first iteration of software. Learning to build machine learning algorithms within a controlled test framework will speed up your time to deliver, quantify quality expectations with your clients, and enable rapid iteration and collaboration. This book will show you how to quantifiably test machine learning algorithms. The very different, foundational approach of this book starts every example algorithm with the simplest thing that could possibly work. With this approach, seasoned veterans will find simpler approaches to beginning a machine learning algorithm. You will learn how to iterate on these algorithms to enable rapid delivery and improve performance expectations. The book begins with an introduction to test driving machine learning and quantifying model quality. From there, you will test a neural network, predict values with regression, and build upon regression techniques with logistic regression. You will discover how to test different approaches to na?ve bayes and compare them quantitatively, along with how to apply OOP (Object-Oriented Programming) and OOP patterns to test-driven code, leveraging SciKit-Learn. Finally, you will walk through the development of an algorithm which maximizes the expected value of profit for a marketing campaign by combining one of the classifiers covered with the multiple regression example in the book. Style and approach An example-driven guide that builds a deeper knowledge and understanding of iterative machine learning development, test by test. Each topic develops solutions using failing tests to illustrate problems; these are followed by steps to pass the tests, simply and straightforwardly. Topics which use generated data explore how the data was generated, alongside explanations of the assumptions behind different machine learning techniques.
