"Understanding our exponentially accelerating future requires clear frameworks for thinking, and Soroush Saghafian distills a century of our best analytical tools into this outstanding book." --Ray Kurzweil, ๐๐จ๐จ๐ ๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ก๐ข๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ, recipient of the National Medal of Technology and Innovation, and author of The Singularity is Nearer
"Sweeping in scope, optimistic, and accessible, Saghafian's book on analytics science will become a reference for students and practitioners who seek a principled approach to solving difficult problems. Offering historical context and real-world examples, and with a solid grounding in scholarship while avoiding difficult notation, this book scaffolds an integrated approach toward building a better world." --David Parkes, ๐๐๐๐ง ๐จ๐ ๐๐จ๐ก๐ง ๐. ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง ๐๐๐ก๐จ๐จ๐ฅ ๐จ๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ข๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐๐ข๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ, ๐๐๐ซ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐ง๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ, and George Colony Professor of Computer Science
"Solving society's most pressing challenges will require new ideas and insights. Determining which ideas will work best requires data, models, and expertise with a variety of analytic tools. Saghafian offers a deep, yet understandable, practitioners' guide to machine learning, resource allocation, mechanism design, linear programming, and data analytics." --Scott E.
