Presentation

Bio-inspired Machine Learning

The problem of optimizing machine learning techniques is usually solved through deterministic approaches that are essentially based on Linear Algebra and Multivariable Calculus. However, when it is not possible to build an analytical approach to compute the optimal values ​​of the decision variables of the objective function, then you can resort to Stochastic and Metaheuristic Approaches whose source of inspiration is embedded in the Fauna that inhabits Nature and in the processes of Natural Selection; giving rise -ultimately- to Bio-inspired Optimization Approaches.
