• Statistical Testing

    We explain in detail the Student's t-statistic and the chi**2 statistic.
  • Linear regression classifier

    We explain the basics of linear regression and classification.
  • Bias-Variance/Complexity tradeoff

    When fitting a model to the data, there is a tradeoff between bias and complexity. A less biased model can have higher complexity, but this also makes it more prone to overfit. In contrast, with more bias, the model is limited to simpler problems. We explain this phenomenon with python examples in both classification and regression examples.
  • Curse of dimensionality

    We address the importance of dimensionality in machine learning.
  • Hoeffding's inequality

    We derive Hoeffding's inequality. This is one of the most used results in machine learning theory.
