Math for deep learning : what you need to know to understand neural networks / by Ronald T. Kneusel.

By: Kneusel, Ronald T [author.].
Publisher: San Francisco : No Starch Press, ©2022Description: xxv, 316 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.Content type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781718501904.Subject(s): Machine learning -- Mathematics | Neural networks (Computer science) -- Mathematics | Neural networks (Computer science) -- MathematicsGenre/Form: Print books.
Contents:
Setting the stage -- Probability -- More probability -- Statistics -- Linear algebra -- More linear algebra -- Differential calculus -- Matrix calculus -- Data flow in neural networks -- Backpropagation -- Gradient descent -- Going further.
Summary: To truly understand the power of deel learning, you need to grasp the mathematical concepts that make it tick. "Math for deep learning" will give you a working knowledge of probability, statistics, linear algebra, and differential calculus-- the essential math subfields required to practice deep learning successfully. Each subfield is explained with Python code and hands-on, real-world examples that bridge the gap between pure mathematics and its applications in deep learning. The book begins with fundamentals such as Bayes' theorem before progressing to more advanced concepts like training neural networks using vectors, matrices, and derivatives of functions. You'll then put all this math to use as you explore and implement backpropagation and gradient descent-- the foundational algorithms that have enabled the AI revolution.
