At the heart of the optimization domain are mathematical modeling of the problem and the solution methodologies. The problems are becoming larger and with growing complexity. Such problems are becoming cumbersome when handled by traditional optimization methods. This has motivated researchers to resort to Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based, nature-inspired solution methodologies or algorithms. The Handbook of AI-based Metaheuristics provides a wide-ranging reference to the theoretical and mathematical formulations of metaheuristics, including bio-inspired, swarm-based, socio-cultural, and physics-based methods or algorithms; their testing and validation, along with detailed illustrative solutions and applications; and newly devised metaheuristic algorithms. This will be a valuable reference for researchers in industry and academia, as well as for all Master’s and PhD students working in the metaheuristics and applications domains.

Unsupervised Learning Approaches for Dimensionality Reduction and Data Visualization describes such algorithms as Locally Linear Embedding (LLE), Laplacian Eigenmaps, Isomap, Semidefinite Embedding, and t-SNE to resolve the problem of dimensionality reduction in the case of non-linear relationships within the data. Underlying mathematical concepts, derivations, and proofs with logical explanations for these algorithms are discussed, including strengths and limitations. The book highlights important use cases of these algorithms and provides examples along with visualizations. Comparative study of the algorithms is presented to give a clear idea on selecting the best suitable algorithm for a given dataset for efficient dimensionality reduction and data visualization.

This book represents our attempt to make deep learning approachable, teaching you the concepts, the context, and the code.
Just a few years ago, there were no legions of deep learning scientists developing intelligent products and services at major companies and startups. When we entered the field, machine learning did not command headlines in daily newspapers. Our parents had no idea what machine learning was, let alone why we might prefer it to a career in medicine or law.

A book about some of the annoying and disruptive situations occurring in software development projects that make developers' jobs difficult and frustrating... with some possible solutions to fix things. As a programmer, what do you think of when you hear "software development"? Do you think about code? Programming languages? Perhaps about frameworks and design patterns, or technologies and computers? Do you think about all the technical stuff you like, or the things that make software development challenging and lots of fun for you? These things are important. They are part of the software you create. But how about things that are not technical in nature?

Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C. The language provides constructs intended to enable clear programs on both a small and large scale.

In this book, I have considered options with practical applications. This book also provides many examples of programming languages for further use in projects. When testing programs that have multiple dependencies, you can either create instances of these dependencies or use dummy objects to simulate the expected behavior of the dependencies. Although recent quantitative studies have shown that layouts are widely used in both open source and proprietary projects, scientific knowledge about how and why practitioners use layouts is still lacking. To this end, we will explore the use of mock objects in this book. Let's look at the most popular frameworks and their implementations.
