A Short Course on Machine Learning
This is a short course on machine learning, describing my personal perspective on inference and decision making. Inference refers to how we assess a situation under uncertainty, and decision making implies action under uncertainty. I say 'personal perspective' to indicate that I'll be as rigorous as or as brief as I deem appropriate to convey my insight.
