While her rise to fame was rapid, it wasn’t always smooth, and Ally candidly discusses the challenges she faced along the way, sharing how she navigated tough moments by staying true to herself and her beliefs. Opening up about her journey since Fifth Harmony disbanded, Ally recalls her tireless efforts to make music on her terms, charting back to back singles in the top 40 and amassing over 200 million collective worldwide streams. She also delves into her time on Dancing with the Stars, demonstrating how she conquered her fears and insecurities on her way to a top three finish and further established herself as a role model for young people the world over.

Book Description
Although Rebecca had completed the writing of this book in 2009, it laid dormant until early 2015. It was then she was fully engaged in a program designed to bring the conscious self into harmony with the higher self. While participating in this program, so many of the concepts she had written about years prior were re-introduced. And so, she felt the push to share her experience. The process of writing this book had served as such a healing framework in her own life, she recognized she had gone through another part of her Journey where the concepts once again aided in bringing more purpose, clarity and harmony to life. Isnt this what we all strive for? Rebecca shares it now in hopes of empowering others to recognize they have the choice and free will to live the life they want, versus the life in which they feel resorted to living. For it is in seemingly small moments, where we can intentionally and deliberately create the life we choose and live in harmony with our souls purpose and desires.

Music-Inspired Harmony Search Algorithm
Author: Zong Woo Geem
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3642001858
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Calculus has been used in solving many scientific and engineering problems. For optimization problems, however, the differential calculus technique sometimes has a drawback when the objective function is step-wise, discontinuous, or multi-modal, or when decision variables are discrete rather than continuous. Thus, researchers have recently turned their interests into metaheuristic algorithms that have been inspired by natural phenomena such as evolution, animal behavior, or metallic annealing. This book especially focuses on a music-inspired metaheuristic algorithm, harmony search. Interestingly, there exists an analogy between music and optimization: each musical instrument corresponds to each decision variable; musical note corresponds to variable value; and harmony corresponds to solution vector. Just like musicians in Jazz improvisation play notes randomly or based on experiences in order to find fantastic harmony, variables in the harmony search algorithm have random values or previously-memorized good values in order to find optimal solution.
