The amazing Italian researchers, Roberto Battiti and Mauro Brunato, authors of LIONsolver software, have recently written
LION: Learning and Intelligent Optimization textbook, and made it freely available on the web. This textbook presents important materials on machine learning and optimization, but does it in a very entertaining and readable style, with excellent illustrations.
Now they also created The LIONcommunity page with materials on machine learning and optimization made available by their lab and a community of active researchers and users.
This includes
