Book excerpt: MBA Math & More provides expert academic support you need for all the key material--especially the math--that you’ll see in your first year of business school. After all the hard work, you’ve finally gotten accepted to business school. But you’re worried about the “school” part of b-school--especially the math of Statistics, Finance, Accounting, and so on. Or maybe you’ve already started your program, and your head is spinning. Statistical distributions are brutal on their own, and they’re even harder when you’re also schmoozing recruiters and tackling all the other challenges of your MBA program. MBA Math & More will be your go-to academic guide throughout your first year of business school. Armed with top-shelf MBAs and years of GMAT teaching, the authors have drawn on their own experiences and those of hundreds of other MBA students to craft straightforward reviews of all the key concepts. The math is explained simply with plenty of easy-to-follow diagrams and concrete examples. At last, you’ll feel like you really get how the discount rate affects the price of a bond, along with dozens of other challenging ideas at the heart of b-school programs. The book even includes a glossary of need-to-know jargon, so you won't feel lost when classmates start slinging around acronyms.

Download or read book Burn Math Class written by Jason Wilkes and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A manifesto for a mathematical revolution Forget everything you've been taught about math. In Burn Math Class, Jason Wilkes takes the traditional approach to how we learn math -- with its unwelcoming textbooks, unexplained rules, and authoritarian assertions-and sets it on fire. Focusing on how mathematics is created rather than on mathematical facts, Wilkes teaches the subject in a way that requires no memorization and no prior knowledge beyond addition and multiplication. From these simple foundations, Burn Math Class shows how mathematics can be (re)invented from scratch without preexisting textbooks and courses. We can discover math on our own through experimentation and failure, without appealing to any outside authority. When math is created free from arcane notations and pretentious jargon that hide the simplicity of mathematical concepts, it can be understood organically -- and it becomes fun! Following this unconventional approach, Burn Math Class leads the reader from the basics of elementary arithmetic to various "advanced" topics, such as time-dilation in special relativity, Taylor series, and calculus in infinite-dimensional spaces. Along the way, Wilkes argues that orthodox mathematics education has been teaching the subject backward: calculus belongs before many of its so-called prerequisites, and those prerequisites cannot be fully understood without calculus. Like the smartest, craziest teacher you've ever had, Wilkes guides you on an adventure in mathematical creation that will radically change the way you think about math. Revealing the beauty and simplicity of this timeless subject, Burn Math Class turns everything that seems difficult about mathematics upside down and sideways until you understand just how easy math can be.

Download or read book Mathematics for Machine Learning written by Marc Peter Deisenroth and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamental mathematical tools needed to understand machine learning include linear algebra, analytic geometry, matrix decompositions, vector calculus, optimization, probability and statistics. These topics are traditionally taught in disparate courses, making it hard for data science or computer science students, or professionals, to efficiently learn the mathematics. This self-contained textbook bridges the gap between mathematical and machine learning texts, introducing the mathematical concepts with a minimum of prerequisites. It uses these concepts to derive four central machine learning methods: linear regression, principal component analysis, Gaussian mixture models and support vector machines. For students and others with a mathematical background, these derivations provide a starting point to machine learning texts. For those learning the mathematics for the first time, the methods help build intuition and practical experience with applying mathematical concepts. Every chapter includes worked examples and exercises to test understanding. Programming tutorials are offered on the book's web site.
