    Machine Learning: From the Classics to Deep Networks, Transformers and Diffusion Models, Third Edition starts with the basics, including least squares regression and maximum likelihood methods, Bayesian decision theory, logistic regression, and decision trees. It then progresses to more recent techniques, covering sparse modelling methods, learning in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces and support vector machines. Bayesian learning is treated in detail with emphasis on the EM algorithm and its approximate variational versions with a focus on mixture modelling, regression and classification. Nonparametric Bayesian learning, including Gaussian, Chinese restaurant, and Indian buffet processes are also presented. Monte Carlo methods, particle filtering, probabilistic graphical models with emphasis on Bayesian networks and hidden Markov models are treated in detail. Dimensionality reduction and latent variables modelling are considered in depth. Neural networks and deep learning are thoroughly presented, starting from the perceptron rule and multilayer perceptrons and moving on to convolutional and recurrent neural networks, adversarial learning, capsule networks, deep belief networks, GANs, and VAEs. The book also covers the fundamentals on statistical parameter estimation and optimization algorithms.Focusing on the physical reasoning behind the mathematics, without sacrificing rigor, all methods and techniques are explained in depth, supported by examples and problems, providing an invaluable resource to the student and researcher for understanding and applying machine learning concepts.

    • Inglés
    Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis: Stepwise Approach for Medical and Biomedical Researchers presents a step-by-step approach to develop systematic reviews and meta-analysis for biomedical and medical research. Systematic reviews are the highest quality evidence in medical research, providing an answer to a specific question, and they can be developed in the form of comprehensive literature search, critical appraisal, and synthesis of the evidence. Systematic reviews and meta-analysis are key elements of evidence-based medicine by summarizing the results of previous studies with the use of specific and reliable methods.Initially, systematic review and meta-analysis were exclusive to clinical trials, however systematic reviews of observational and diagnostic studies have expanded, making it essential for members of the field to master those techniques. This practical reference is a valuable resource for biostaticians, researchers, students, and members of medical and biomedical fields who need to understand more about systematic reviews and meta-analysis in their research work.

    Fixed Point Optimization Algorithms and Their Applications discusses how the relationship between fixed point algorithms and optimization problems is connected and demonstrates hands-on applications of the algorithms in fields such as image restoration, signal recovery, and machine learning. The book is divided into nine chapters beginning with foundational concepts of normed linear spaces, Banach spaces, and Hilbert spaces, along with nonlinear operators and useful lemmas and theorems for proving the book’s main results. The author presents algorithms for nonexpansive and generalized nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert space, and presents solutions to many optimization problems across a range of scientific research and real-world applications. From foundational concepts, the book proceeds to present a variety of optimization algorithms, including fixed point theories, convergence theorems, variational inequality problems, minimization problems, split feasibility problems, variational inclusion problems, and equilibrium problems. Fixed Point Optimization Algorithms and Their Applications equips readers with the theoretical mathematics background and necessary tools to tackle challenging optimization problems involving a range of algebraic methods, empowering them to apply these techniques in their research, professional work, or academic pursuits.
