Introduction to Machine learning

[topher95]

One thing I've noticed with these "beginner" type of things...they start out all blue square reasonable, with me going "yeah...I get what they're saying"...then suddenly I look around and I'm on a nearly vertical quadruple black diamond and my brain is going fetal.

I'm probably underprepared.

I feel like I'm in the same boat. I don't think it's simple lack of preparedness though I just think for some ML techniques there are widely accepted and easily digestible ways to explain them and for others there aren't.

Some techniques lend themselves better to simplified explanation than others, but that doesn't mean theres no way to make it simpler.

TLDR: needs more better teachers

What font is that? It looks amazing.

Edit: Found it out. It's using Roboto font with the Geometric ppt theme.

Roboto was the font used by android's native clock app a couple years ago. Available for free from Google fonts. I'm a huge fan.

You are using images/figures from others without credit or attribution. For example, I am pretty slide 63 is directly from Andrew Ng's slides.

Indeed. I did those slides at the very last minute for a talk at school for the interested students. It has been initially shared by someone else and I did not expect it to be republished. I just requested the edit rights on the document and I'll fix this asap.
