What do you hate about Bishop's book? I'm genuinely curious.
- soVeryTired 8y agoHonestly, I don't understand the way he explains things. The maths is difficult to follow, and it just never clicks for me. Maybe he's writing for someone with a physics background or something, but I feel stupid when I read bishop. I just read over his description of how to transform a uniform random variable into a variable with a desired distribution (p. 526). It's a fairly easy trick, but if I didn't already know it I wouldn't understand his explanation
- bllguo 8y agoI'm trying to read through it and I have to agree, his math isn't that clear to me. What do you recommend?
