Udemy - Optimization with Metaheuristics in Python
Description
This course will guide you on what optimization is and what metaheuristics are. You will learn why we use metaheuristics in optimization problems as sometimes, when you have a complex problem you'd like to optimize, deterministic methods will not do; you will not be able to reach the best and optimal solution to your problem, therefore, metaheuristics should be used.
This course covers information on metaheuristics and four widely used techniques which are:
Simulated Annealing
Genetic Algorithm
Tabu Search
Evolutionary Strategies
By the end of this course, you will learn what Simulated Annealing, Genetic Algorithm, Tabu Search, and Evolutionary Strategies are, why they are used, how they work, and best of all, how to code them in Python! With no packages and no libraries, learn to code them from scratch!! You will also learn how to handle constraints using the penalty method.
Here's the awesome part --> you do NOT need to know Python programming!
This course will teach you how to optimize continuous and combinatorial problems using Python
Where every single line of code is explained thoroughly
The code is written in a simple manner that you will understand how things work and how to code the algorithms even with zero knowledge in Python
Basically, you can think of this as not only a course that teaches you 4 well known metaheuristics, but also Python programming!
Please feel free to ask me any question! Don't like the course? Ask for a 30-day refund!!
Real Testaments -->
1) "I can say that this is the best course I've had on Udemy ! Dana is a very good instructor. She not only explains the problems and the coding, but also reassures you and remove the fears you might have when learning complex concepts. For someone with a business background, this topic was close to a nightmare ! I highly recommend this course for anyone interested in learning about Metaheuristics. Again, big THANK YOU Dana ! :)" -- Logistics Knowledge Bank, 5 star rating
2) "I am half way through the course. What I learnt so far is far beyond what I expected. What I really liked is the applicability of the examples to real world problems. The most exciting feature in the course is the hands on, what you learn will be implemented in python and you can follow every single step. If you did not understand, the instructor is there to help. I even felt like it is a one to one course. Thanks a lot to the instructor." -- Ali, 5 star rating
3) "The best introduction to Metaheuristics bar none. Best value course on Udemy. I love that we cover a bit of theory and code the actual algorithm itself. The course doesn't just give you some package to use but presents you with code very easy to follow. The code is not optimized or written for maximum performance but for maximum readability. This means you can play around with it once you really understand it and speed it up. Thank you Dana for this amazing course. It has given me the confidence to code my own slightly more advanced algorithms from Sean Luke's book: Essential Metaheuristics. I feel the two are great companions." -- Dylan, 5 star rating
4) "It is a great introduction to Metaheuristics. The course deserves five stars for the overall information on this topic. The instructor is talented and knowledgeable about the optimization problems. I recommend the course for someone looking to solve an optimization problem." -- Abdulaziz, 5 star rating
5) "I still not finished the course, but until now, I am really satisfied with I've seen. THEORETICAL EXPLANATIONS: Dana is very didactic, before presenting the code she always briefly present the theory in a simple way, much easier to understand than books and journal papers explanations. Of course, it is necessary to complement this with other materials, but if you already have a theoretical base, it is just great! Dana, I loved your explanation about crossover and mutation! FOR BEGINNERS IN PYTHON: I am a beginner in Python and even in programming, so Dana's code helped me a lot to understand the meaning of each step and variable since she wrote a very readable code. GOOD TIME-MANAGEMENT: Dana presents the code already done but she explains what she has done in each step. Thus, in 5 minutes we can learn a lot, without being bored. I prefer this way of doing because I've done courses with teachers that do the code during the classes and we waste a lot of time fixing errors and bugs. She is objective and efficient on teaching, I like that. There are things not totally clear to me on courses, so I ask questions to Dana. She takes some days to give us an answer, but she replies anyway. I would appreciate an example of constraint handling for combinatorial problems." -- Rachel, 4.5 star rating
6) "Nice course that really does explain Metaheuristics in a very practical way. Highly recommended!" -- David, 5 star rating
