Data structure and algorithms for AI & ML (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798297512139)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have revolutionized modern computing and technology, offering powerful solutions in fields ranging from natural language processing to autonomous systems. At the heart of AI and ML lie complex data manipulations and efficient algorithmic processes that transform raw data into meaningful patterns, predictions, and decisions.
This book, Data Structures and Algorithms for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, is specifically designed for AI and ML students, researchers, and practitioners who wish to gain a deep understanding of the fundamental data structures and algorithms that underpin intelligent systems. Unlike conventional textbooks that treat data structures and algorithms as standalone computer science topics, this book contextualizes these core concepts within the AI and ML landscape, bridging the gap between theory and practical AI application.

Why This Book?
Most AI and ML courses focus heavily on mathematical foundations, model training, and application frameworks but often overlook the essential role of data structures and algorithmic efficiency. Without an understanding of the underlying data handling and algorithmic strategies, AI models can become inefficient, slow, and unscalable.
This book is a comprehensive guide that covers all crucial data structures and algorithms that are directly relevant to AI and machine learning systems. It explains how to choose and implement the right data structures to handle vast amounts of data efficiently, how different algorithms optimize the training and inference processes, and how the combination of these two components results in faster, smarter AI systems.
