The Art of Randomness: Randomized Algorithms in the Real World by Ronald T. Kneu

Description: The Art of Randomness by Ronald T. Kneusel The Art of Randomness is a hands-on guide to mastering the many ways you can use randomized algorithms to solve real programming and scientific problems. Youll learn how to use randomness to run simulations, hide information, design experiments, and even create art and music. All you need is some Python, basic high school math, and a roll of the dice.Author Ronald T. Kneusel focuses on helping you build your intuition so that youll know when and how to use random processes to get things done. Youll develop a randomness engine (a Python class that supplies random values from your chosen source), then explore how to leverage randomness to-Simulate Darwinian evolution and optimize with swarm-based search algorithmsDesign scientific experiments to produce more meaningful results by making them truly randomImplement machine learning algorithms like neural networks and random forestsUse Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods to sample from complex distributionsHide information in audio files and images, generate art, and create musicReconstruct original signals and images from only randomly sampled dataScientific anecdotes and code examples throughout illustrate how randomness plays into areas like optimization, machine learning, and audio signals. End-of-chapter exercises encourage further exploration.Whether youre a programmer, scientist, engineer, mathematician, or artist, youll find The Art of Randomness to be your ticket to discovering the hidden power of applied randomness and the ways it can transform your approach to solving problems, from the technical to the artistic.Harness the power of randomness (and Python code) to solve real-world problems in fun, hands-on experiments-from simulating evolution to encrypting messages to making machine-learning algorithms!The Art of Randomness is a hands-on guide to mastering the many ways you can use randomized algorithms to solve real programming and scientific problems.
