    In 2020 I completed the Udacity Deep Learning Nanodegree, which focuses on implementing a variety of deep learning architectures using PyTorch. At the outset, it’s pretty fundamental to understand the data structures you’ll be encountering as inputs to and outputs from your neural network architecture. What I noticed was that plenty of the issues encountered…

    I’ve just bought this delightfully titled book: No bullshit guide to linear algebra by Ivan Savov. It’s not necessarily easy learning everything you need to know about linear algebra for machine learning in 5 weeks (is that just me???) – so when I hit a bit of a brick wall in week 4 I went looking…

    This resource was just recommended via Coursera Mathematics for Machine Learning: Linear Algebra, and all I can say is WOW! Animated math: it’s slick, it’s professional, it’s cute, it makes you smile – and it makes it all seem so obvious :). I can heartily recommend you take the time if you need help on Linear Algebra. In…
