Molecular Networking Statistical Mechanics in the Age of AI and Machine Learning

"The book builds on an analogy between social groups and assemblies of molecules to introduce the concepts of statistical mechanics, machine learning and data science. The idea is to bolster students' interest by proposing a new take on the topic that draws on a data analytics approach of molecules. Specifically, how the analysis of their individual features, as well as of interactions and "communication" processes can predict their properties and collective behavior, just as polling and social networking shed light on the behavior of social groups. Applications to systems at the cutting-edge of research e.g. environmental and energy applications, will be used"--
