Books on cryptography

	Category:Cryptography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cryptography is, traditionally, the study of ways to convert information from its normal, comprehensible form into an obscured guise, unreadable without special knowledge — the practice of encryption.
		In the past, cryptography helped ensure secrecy in important communications, such as those of spies, military leaders, and diplomats.
		Cryptography is now often built into the infrastructure for computing and telecommunications; users may not even be aware of its presence.

	Graduate Course Listings
		Topics range from using version control systems to track changes to documents and data files, and automating unit tests to ensure that once a bug is fixed, it stays fixed, to using web-based tools to streamline and coordinate small research teams.
		Topics may include: introduction to philosophy of language, compositionality, categorial grammar, quantification and plurality, underspecification, lexical semantics, word-sense disambiguation, lexical choice and nuances of meaning, calculating semantic distance, semantic interpretation in natural language processing systems, and reasoning with the event calculus in natural language.
		Topics will include: The backpropagation algorithm and some pattern recognition applications; ways to make backpropagation converge faster and generalize better; Mixtures of Experts; Autoencoder networks and their relationship to other dimensionality-reduction methods; The EM algorithm for learning simple directed belief nets; Gibbs sampling and variational methods for learning intractable directed belief nets.
