Written in an easily accessible style, this book provides the idealblend of theory and practical, applicable knowledge. It covers neuralnetworks, graphical models, reinforcement learning, evolutionaryalgorithms, dimensionality reduction methods, and the important areaof optimization. It treads the fine line between adequate academicrigor and overwhelming students with equations and mathematicalconcepts. The author includes examples based on widely availabledatasets and practical and theoretical problems to test understandingand application of the material. The book describes algorithms withcode examples backed up by a website that provides workingimplementations in Python.
