The lion way version 30 machine learning plus intelligent optimization roberto battiti and mauro brunato this newly revised book presents two topics which are in most cases separated machine learning the design of flexible models from data and intelligent optimization the automated creation and selection of improving solutions. The lion way machine learning plus intelligent optimization pdf october 30 2013 learning and intelligent optimization lion is the combination of learning from data and optimization applied to solve complex and dynamic problems the lion way is about increasing the automation level and connecting data directly to decisions and actions. The optimization algorithm othis leads to self contained fully automated algorithms independent from human intervention reactive search optimization rso integrates online machine learning techniques and search heuristics for solving complex optimization problems. Learning and intelligent optimization lion is the combination of learning from data and optimization applied to solve complex and dynamic problems the lion way is about increasing the automation level and connecting data directly to decisions and actions more power is directly in the hands of decision makers in a self service manner without resorting to intermediate layers of data
