The main focus of this particular episode covers the material in Chapter 4 of my new forthcoming book titled <a href= "https://www.statisticalmachinelearning.com/">“Statistical Machine Learning: A unified framework.”</a>  Chapter 4 is titled “Linear Algebra for Machine Learning. Many important and widely used machine learning algorithms may be interpreted as linear machines and this chapter shows how to use linear algebra to analyze and design such machines. In addition, these same techniques are fundamentally important for the development of techniques for the analysis and design of nonlinear machines.  This podcast provides a brief overview of Linear Algebra for Machine Learning for the general public as well as information for students and instructors regarding the contents of Chapter 4 of Statistical Machine Learning.

LM101-083: Ch5: How to Use Calculus to Design Learning Machines

Smart machines based upon the principles of artificial intelligence and machine learning are now prevalent in our everyday life.  For example, artificially intelligent systems recognize our voices, sort our pictures, make purchasing suggestions, and can automatically fly planes and drive cars. In this podcast series, we examine such questions such as: How do these devices work? Where do they come from? And how can we make them even smarter and more human-like? These are the questions that will be addressed in this podcast series!
