Simply the best: An introduction to machine learning with evolutionary algorithms
Frances Buontempo
Evolutionary algorithms are part of machine learning. They solve optimization problems, searching for the 'best' solution(s) to problems. They are inspired by the process of evolution in nature. This workshop will show how easy they are to code up, letting you practice Python and discover some machine learning.
