Review of Probability Theory

Probability theory is the study of uncertainty. Through this class, we will be relying on concepts from probability theory for deriving machine learning algorithms. These notes attempt to cover the basics of probability theory at a level appropriate for CS 229. The mathematical theory of probability is very sophisticated, and delves into a branch of analysis known as measure theory. In these no...

CME 106: Review Probability theory

In the first half of the course, we covered topics from probability theory. The difference between statistics and probability theory is the following: In probability theory, we know everything about the underlying process that generates random variables. We then try to infer characteristics of these random variables. In statistics, however, we do not know the underlying process at all. To the c...
