Based on current literature and cutting-edge advances in the machine learning field, there are four algorithms whose usage in new application domains must be explored: neural networks, rule induction algorithms, tree-based algorithms, and density-based algorithms. A number of machine learning related algorithms have been derived from these four algorithms. Consequently, they represent excellent underlying methods for extracting hidden knowledge from unstructured data, as essential data mining tasks. Implementation of Machine Learning Algorithms Using Control-Flow and Dataflow Paradigms presents widely used data-mining algorithms and explains their advantages and disadvantages, their mathematical treatment, applications, energy efficient implementations, and more. It presents research of energy efficient accelerators for machine learning algorithms. Covering topics such as control-flow implementation, approximate computing, and decision tree algorithms, this book is an essential resource for computer scientists, engineers, students and educators of higher education, researchers, and academicians.

Veljko Milutinovic (1951) received his PhD from the University of Belgrade in Serbia, spent about a decade on various faculty positions in the USA (mostly at Purdue University and more recently at the University of Indiana in Bloomington), and was a co-designer of the DARPAs pioneering GaAs RISC microprocessor on 200MHz (about a decade before the first commercial effort on that same speed) and was a co-designer also of the related GaAs Systolic Array (with 4096 GaAs microprocessors). Later, for almost three decades, he taught and conducted research at the University of Belgrade in Serbia, for departments of EE, MATH, BA, and PHYS/CHEM. His research is mostly in data mining algorithms and dataflow computing, with the emphasis on mapping of data analytics algorithms onto fast energy efficient architectures. Most of his research was done in cooperation with industry (Intel, Fairchild, Honeywell, Maxeler, HP, IBM, NCR, RCA, etc.). For 20 of his edited books, publication forewords or other contributions were written by 20 different Nobel Laureates with whom he cooperated on his past industry sponsored projects. He published 40 books (mostly in the USA), he has over 100 papers in SCI journals (mostly in IEEE and ACM journals), and he presented invited talks at over 400 destinations worldwide. He has well over 1000 Thomson-Reuters WoS citations, well over 1000 Elsevier SCOPUS citations, and well over 5000 Google Scholar citations. His Google Scholar h index is equal to 40. He is a Life Fellow of the IEEE since 2003 and a Member of The Academy of Europe since 2011. He is a member of the Serbian National Academy of Engineering and a Foreign Member of the Montenegrin National Academy of Sciences and Arts.
