Sejnowski, Computational Neurobiologist\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe main objective of this book is to create awareness about both the promises and the formidable challenges that the era of Data-Driven Decision-Making and Machine Learning are confronted with, and especially about how these new developments may influence the future of the financial industry.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe subject of \u003ci\u003eFinancial Machine Learning\u003c\/i\u003e has attracted a lot of interest recently, specifically because it represents one of the most challenging \u003ci\u003eproblem spaces\u003c\/i\u003e for the applicability of Machine Learning. The author has used a novel approach to introduce the reader to this topic:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe first half of the book is a readable and coherent introduction to two modern topics that are not generally considered together: the \u003ci\u003edata-driven \u003c\/i\u003eparadigm and \u003ci\u003eComputational Intelligence\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe second half of the book illustrates a set of Case Studies that are contemporarily relevant to quantitative trading practitioners who are dealing with problems such as trade execution optimization, price dynamics forecast, portfolio management, market making, derivatives valuation, risk, and compliance.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe main purpose of this book is pedagogical in nature, and it is specifically aimed at defining an adequate level of engineering and scientific clarity when it comes to the usage of the term “\u003ci\u003eArtificial Intelligence\u003c\/i\u003e,” especially as it relates to the financial industry.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe message conveyed by this book is one of confidence in the possibilities offered by this new era of Data-Intensive Computation. This message is not grounded on the current hype surrounding the latest technologies, but on a deep analysis of their effectiveness and also on the author’s two decades of professional experience as a technologist, quant and academic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCRIS DOLOC\u003c\/b\u003e is a leading computational scientist with more than 25 years of experience in quantitative finance.
