Optimization techniques are at the core of data science. An understanding of the basic techniques and their fundamental properties provides important grounding for students, researchers, and practitioners. This compact, self-contained text covers the fundamentals of optimization…
"Optimization formulations and algorithms have long played a central role in data analysis and machine learning. Maximum likelihood concepts date to Gauss and Laplace in the late 1700s ; problems of this type drove developments in unconstrained optimization in the latter half of…
