Solve design, planning, and control problems using modern machine learning and AI techniques.
In Optimization Algorithms: AI techniques for design, planning, and control problems you will learn:
- Machine learning methods for search and optimization problems
- The core concepts of search and optimization
- Deterministic and stochastic optimization techniques
- Graph search algorithms
- Nature-inspired search and optimization algorithms
- Efficient trade-offs between search space exploration and exploitation
- State-of-the-art Python libraries for search and optimization
About the technology:
Search and optimization algorithms are powerful tools that can help practitioners find optimal or near-optimal solutions to a wide range of design, planning and control problems. When you open a route planning app, call for a rideshare, or schedule a hospital appointment, an AI algorithm works behind the scenes to make sure you get an optimized result. This guide reveals the classical and modern algorithms behind these services.

Review :
This book is a superb introduction to advanced search and optimization techniques, with realistic examples and practical implementations in Python. Alain Couniot
It's rare to find such a well structured book with a perfect balance between theory and practice - you end up with a fun and educational book that’s a pleasure to read. Onofrei George
Reading the book gave me a good overview of the insane amount of algorithms I didn't even know existed. Kim Gabrielsen
I have not seen some of the graph algorithms inside this book explained as clearly before. Nick Vazquez
I truly enjoyed the depth, the broad spectrum of topics, the numerous practical examples, and the writing style. Simon Tschke
