- wyldfire 12y agoSomeone linked to a coursera course on machine learning in that thread, but the URL seems to have changed. It's now found at https://www.coursera.org/course/ml https://www.coursera.org/course/ml "Andrew Ng's Standford course has been a god send in laying out the mathmatics of Machine Learning. Would be a good next step for anybody who was intrigued by this article."
- jjoonathan 12y agoI don't remember Andrew Ng's coursera class giving a satisfying introductory mathematical treatment. I remember frequent handwaving away of the calculus intuition in favor of just dropping the "shovel-ready" equations into our laps so that we could do the homeworks. If you wanted a better treatment you had to dig it up for yourself (which wasn't too hard if you visited the forums but still). Has it been supplemented since then?
