I want to understand the principles of a signals and signal processing, as they form info theory, and the theoretical underpinnings to learning. Then I want those insights to enrich my deep dive into machine learning, esp deep NNs, in particular to extract ineffable features from images and other complex signals, and finally, how to build a mind. And I want to learn French.
