Solve design planning and control problems using modern AI techniques Optimization problems are everywhere in daily life What s the fastest route from one place to another How do you calculate the optimal price for a product How should you plant crops allocate resources and schedule surgeries Optimization Algorithms introduces the AI algorithms that can solve these complex and poorly structured problems In Optimization Algorithms AI techniques for design planning and control problems you will learn The core concepts of search and optimization Deterministic and stochastic optimization techniques Graph search algorithms Trajectory based optimization algorithms Evolutionary computing algorithms Swarm intelligence algorithms Machine learning methods for search and optimization problems Efficient trade offs between search space exploration and exploitation State of the art Python libraries for search and optimization Inside this comprehensive guide you ll find a wide range of optimization methods from deterministic search algorithms to stochastic derivative free metaheuristic algorithms and machine learning methods Don t worry there s no complex mathematical notation You ll learn through in depth case studies that cut through academic com

How can we live well when our time and data is being stolen our relationships damaged and our sense of self warped all by technology For every stage of our lives a leading psychologist and tech

A gripping new investigation into the underbelly of digital technology which reveals not only how costly the virtual world is but how damaging it is to the environment If digital technology were a country it would be the third highest consumer of electricity behind China and the United States Every year streaming technology generates as much greenhouse gas as Spain close to 1 per cent of global emissions One Google search uses as much electricity as a lightbulb left on for up to two minutes It turns out that the dematerialised digital world essential for communicating working and consuming is much more tangible than we would like to believe Today it absorbs 10 per cent of the world s electricity and represents nearly 4 per cent of the planet s carbon dioxide emissions We are struggling to understand these impacts as they are obscured to us in the mirage of the cloud The result of an investigation carried out over two years on four continents The Dark Cloud reveals the anatomy of a technology that is virtual only in name Under the guise of limiting the impact of humans on the planet it is already asserting itself as one of the major environmental challenges of the twenty first century
