Archimedes is known as the Father of Mathematics. It is one of the ancient sciences developed in time immemorial. Algebra, geometry, calculus and statistics & probability are considered to be the 4 main branches of mathematics. It is also broadly divided into...
This document is an attempt to provide a summary of the mathematical background needed for an introductory class in machine learning, which at UC Berkeley is known as CS 189/289A. Our assumption is that the reader is already familiar with the basic concepts of...
This text provides a very simple, initial introduction to the complete scientific computing pipeline: models, discretization, algorithms, programming, verification, and visualization. The pedagogical strategy is to use one case study – an ordinary differential...
‘wxMaxima for Calculus I / II’ introduces the computer algebra system wxMaxima in the context of the first / second semester of single-variable calculus. The book can serve as a lab manual for a one-unit one-semester calculus lab or as a reference for...
This book is about convex optimization, a special class of mathematical optimization problems, which includes least-squares and linear programming problems. It is well known that least-squares and linear programming problems have a fairly complete theory, arise in a...
