Who this book is for

This book is targeted at software engineers who are familiar with Java and Python and wish to learn how to use artificial intelligence and machine learning in their code. This book is not just a list of techniques and algorithms, however. Every example project includes a detailed discussion of integration and deployment strategies and techniques for continuous evaluation of the AI after it is deployed. The projects and suggested workflow target small/medium businesses and startup companies that wish to introduce advanced capabilities and automation into an existing platform.
