About this Item

Paperback. AI is primed to revolutionize the way we build applications, offering exciting new ways to solve problems, uncover insights, innovate new products, and provide better user experiences. Successful AI is based on a set of core algorithms that form a base of knowledge shared by all data scientists. Grokking Artificial Intelligence Algorithms is a fully-illustrated and interactive tutorial guide to the different approaches and algorithms that underpin AI. Written in simple language and with lots of visual references and hands-on examples, readers learn the concepts, terminology, and theory they need to effectively incorporate AI algorithms into their applications. Grokking Artificial Intelligence Algorithms uses simple language, jargon-busting explanations, and hand-drawn diagrams to open up complex algorithms. Dont worry if you arent a calculus wunderkind; youll need only the algebra you picked up in math class. Use cases for different AI algorithms How to encode problems and solutions using data structures Intelligent search for game playing Ant colony algorithms for path finding Evolutionary algorithms for optimization problems For software developers with high school-level algebra and calculus skills. Grokking Artificial Intelligence Algorithms uses illustrations, exercises, and jargon-free explanations to teach fundamental AI concepts. All you need is the algebra you remember from high school math class. Explore coding challenges like detecting bank fraud, creating artistic masterpieces, and setting a self-driving car in motion.

About The Book

“Artificial intelligence” requires teaching a computer how to approach different types of problems in a systematic way. The core of AI is the algorithms that the system uses to do things like identifying objects in an image, interpreting the meaning of text, or looking for patterns in data to spot fraud and other anomalies.  Mastering the core algorithms for search, image recognition, and other common tasks is essential to building good AI applications

Grokking Artificial Intelligence Algorithms uses illustrations, exercises, and jargon-free explanations to teach fundamental AI concepts.You’ll explore coding challenges like detect­ing bank fraud, creating artistic masterpieces, and setting a self-driving car in motion. All you need is the algebra you remember from high school math class and beginning programming skills.
