I need to develop more intuition and maturity to understand a few relatively math-heavy engineering methods and ML/DL papers. Would you have any recommendations for not very bright college students? Perhaps something similar to Calculus Made Easy? Also, have you ever taught math using software like Mathematica or SageMath? (I graduated from college a long while ago and don't really have the bandwidth to solve problem sets by hand. I never enjoyed it or learned much from it.)
- throwaway81523 1y agoUnfortunately the best way to develop intuition is to solve problem sets :). And for ML to make sense, understanding some probability theory might be more important than understanding calculus. In math heavy papers you'll need calculus and linear algebra too, but it's going to be hard to understand them without a fair amount of prior study. I took lots of math classes and wrote out problem sets, and I still can't read many of those papers.
