A fair amount. I had a lot of math courses in university, quite a bit more than I needed for quantum mechanics and that sort of thing. But I'm also by no means a mathematician, and I'm definitely out of practice.
- tnecniv 10y agoIf your comfortable with calculus and linear algebra, then that is plenty to get started. Bonus points if you know probability. Plenty of top universities put their ML material online, so I would pick your favorite and check it out. My school teaches roughly based on the Bishop book (I think he keeps a free pdf online). It's dense reading but has information on a huge array of topics. Someone else may be able to suggest other books that are a little more focused. Really though, I would just pick a school, look at their course website, get their textbook, and work through the posted material at whatever pace you feel provides the value you are looking for.
