What should one read after ISLR?
Could probably go through it again but I’d also like more of a theoretical background.
Isn’t OLS a specific case of MLE, for example ?
Anyway, I’d like to understand machine learning and statistical inference more deeply.
I’d be happy to get the answers by reading a handful of books.
- jstx1 5y agoElements of Statistical learning is from the same authors (mostly) as ISLR but it's longer and goes a bit deeper on the theory. Also, Computer Age Statistical Inference which is newer and covers more material. Other big titles - Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning (Bishop), Machine Learning: A Probabilistic Perspective (Murphy) - these last two weren't for me but different people respond to different approaches so check them out especially if the first two books don't click for you.
