Machine Learning Refined: Notes, Exercises, and Jupyter notebooks Tweet

Below you will find a range of resources that complement the 2nd edition of Machine Learning Refined (published by Cambridge University Press).

Table of Contents




A sampler of widgets and our pedagogy

(Back to top)

We believe mastery of a certain machine learning concept/topic is achieved only when the answer to each of the following three questions is affirmative.

  1. Intuition Can you describe the idea with a simple picture?
  2. Mathematical derivation Can you express your intuition in mathematical notation and derive underlying models/cost functions?
  3. Implementation Can you code up your derivations in a programming language, say Python, without using high-level libraries?

Intuition comes first. Intuitive leaps precede intellectual ones, and because of this we have included over 300 color illustrations in the book that have been meticulously designed to enable an intuitive grasp of technical concepts. Many of those illustrations are snapshots of animations that show convergence of certain algorithms, evolution of certain models from underfitting all the way to overfitting, etc. This sort of concepts can be illustrated and intuited best using animations (as opposed to static figures). You'll find a large number of such animations in this repository -- which you can modify yourself too via the raw Jupyter notebook version of these notes. Here are just a few examples:

Cross-validation (regression) Cross-validation (two-class classification) Cross-validation (multi-class classification)



K-means clustering Feature normalization Normalized gradient descent



Rotation Convexification Dogification!



A nonlinear transformation Weighted classification The moving average



Batch normalization Logistic regression



Polynomials vs. NNs vs. Trees (regression) Polynomials vs. NNs vs. Trees (classification)



Changing gradient descent's steplength (1d) Changing gradient descent's steplength (2d)



Convex combination of two functions Taylor series approximation



Feature selection via regularization Secant planes



Function approximation with a neural network A regression tree



Mathematical optimization: the workhorse of machine learning. We highly emphasize the importance of mathematical optimization in our treatment of machine learning. Optimization is the workhorse of machine learning and is fundamental at many levels – from the tuning of individual models to the general selection of appropriate nonlinearities via cross-validation. Because of this a strong understanding of mathematical optimization is requisite if one wishes to deeply understand machine learning, and if one wishes to be able to implement fundamental algorithms. Part I of the book provides a complete introduction to mathematical optimization, covering zero-, first-, and second-order methods, that are relied upon later in deriving and tuning machine learning models.

Learning by doing. We place significant emphasis on the design and implementation of algorithms throughout the text with implementations of fundamental algorithms given in Python. These fundamental examples can then be used as building blocks for the reader to help complete the text’s programming exercises, allowing them to ”get their hands dirty” and ”learn by doing,” practicing the concepts introduced in the body of the text. While in principle any programming language can be used to complete the text’s coding exercises, we highly recommend using Python for its ease of use and large support community. We also recommend using the open-source Python libraries NumPy, autograd, and matplotlib, as well as the Jupyter notebook editor to make implementing and testing code easier. A complete set of installation instructions, datasets, as well as starter notebooks can be found in this repository.

What is new in the second edition?

(Back to top)

The second edition of this text is a complete revision of our first endeavor, with virtually every chapter of the original rewritten from the ground up and eight new chapters of material added, doubling the size of the first edition. Topics from the first edition, from expositions on gradient descent to those on One-versusAll classification and Principal Component Analysis have been reworked and polished. A swath of new topics have been added throughout the text, from derivative-free optimization to weighted supervised learning, feature selection, nonlinear feature engineering, boosting-based cross-validation, and more. While heftier in size, the intent of our original attempt has remained unchanged: to explain machine learning, from first principles to practical implementation, in the simplest possible terms.

How to use the book?

Example ”roadmaps” shown below provide suggested paths for navigating the text based on a variety of learning outcomes and university courses taught using the present book.

Recommended study roadmap for a course on the essentials of machine learning, including requisite chapters (left column), sections (middle column), and corresponding topics (right column). This essentials plan is suitable for time-constrained courses (in quarter-based programs and universities) or self-study, or where machine learning is not the sole focus but a key component of some broader course of study.




Recommended study roadmap for a full treatment of standard machine learning subjects, including chapters, sections, as well as corresponding topics to cover. This plan entails a more in-depth coverage of machine learning topics compared to the essentials roadmap given above, and is best suited for senior undergraduate/early graduate students in semester-based programs and passionate independent readers.

Reviews and Endorsements

(Back to top)

An excellent book that treats the fundamentals of machine learning from basic principles to practical implementation. The book is suitable as a text for senior-level and first-year graduate courses in engineering and computer science. It is well organized and covers basic concepts and algorithms in mathematical optimization methods, linear learning, and nonlinear learning techniques. The book is nicely illustrated in multiple colors and contains numerous examples and coding exercises using Python.

John G. Proakis, University of California, San Diego

Some machine learning books cover only programming aspects, often relying on outdated software tools; some focus exclusively on neural networks; others, solely on theoretical foundations; and yet more books detail advanced topics for the specialist. This fully revised and expanded text provides a broad and accessible introduction to machine learning for engineering and computer science students. The presentation builds on first principles and geometric intuition, while offering real-world examples, commented implementations in Python, and computational exercises. I expect this book to become a key resource for students and researchers.

Osvaldo Simeone, King's College, London

This book is great for getting started in machine learning. It builds up the tools of the trade from first principles, provides lots of examples, and explains one thing at a time at a steady pace. The level of detail and runnable code show what's really going when we run a learning algorithm.

David Duvenaud, University of Toronto

This book covers various essential machine learning methods (e.g., regression, classification, clustering, dimensionality reduction, and deep learning) from a unified mathematical perspective of seeking the optimal model parameters that minimize a cost function. Every method is explained in a comprehensive, intuitive way, and mathematical understanding is aided and enhanced with many geometric illustrations and elegant Python implementations.

Kimiaki Sihrahama, Kindai University, Japan

Books featuring machine learning are many, but those which are simple, intuitive, and yet theoretical are extraordinary 'outliers'. This book is a fantastic and easy way to launch yourself into the exciting world of machine learning, grasp its core concepts, and code them up in Python or Matlab. It was my inspiring guide in preparing my 'Machine Learning Blinks' on my BASIRA YouTube channel for both undergraduate and graduate levels.
