LM101-083: Ch5: How to Use Calculus to Design Learning Machines 41g1m

This particular podcast covers the material from Chapter 5 of my new book “Statistical Machine Learning: A unified framework” which is now available! The book chapter shows how matrix calculus is very useful for the analysis and design of both linear and nonlinear learning machines with lots of examples. We discuss how to use the matrix chain rule for deriving deep learning descent algorithms and how it is relevant to software implementations of deep learning algorithms.  We also discuss how matrix Taylor series expansions are relevant to machine learning algorithm design and the analysis of generalization performance!!
