Parallelism and concurrency
Let’s say that you have 4 test files which take one second each, sequentially running them would take, in total, four seconds. As the number of test files increase, so does the total execution time.
To speed-up your tests, Jest can run them in parallel. By default, Jest will parallelise tests that are in different files.
Paralellising tests
IMPORTANT: Paralellising tests mean using different threads to run test-cases simultaneously. …

In Python and other languages, we often think of functions as mini-programs. They’re self-contained sets of instructions that accept some input data, do some ordered computations with it, and identify some result value as an output. From the perspective of functional programming, we consider functions to be data that we can compute things about. …

Neural Network Models
Neural networks are the most important class of machine learning algorithms for handling perceptual problems such as computer vision and NLP. Thus, it is the most important class of models for the subject covered by this book.
In this post, we will train two representative pretrained neural network language models on the two illustrative example problems we have been baselining in this chapter. …

INTERVIEW
When Machine Learning Becomes Machine Design: new paradigms and patterns for automated deep learning
An interview with Andrew Ferlitsch by Frances Lefkowitz
Andrew Ferlitsch, from the developer relations team at Google Cloud AI, is so far out on the cutting edge of machine learning and artificial intelligence that he has to invent new terminology to describe what’s happening in Cloud AI with Google Cloud’s enterprise clients. In this interview with editors at Manning Publications, he talks about the current and coming changes in machine learning systems, starting with the concept of model amalgamation. Ferlitsch is currently writing a book, Deep Learning Design Patterns, which collects his ideas along with the most important composable model components.
