Fundamental topics in machine learning are presented along with theoretical and conceptual tools for the discussion and proof of algorithms.
This graduate-level textbook introduces fundamental concepts and methods in machine learning. It describes several important modern algorithms, provides the theoretical underpinnings of these algorithms, and illustrates key aspects for their application. The authors aim to present novel theoretical tools and concepts while giving concise proofs even for relatively advanced topics.
Foundations of Machine Learning fills the need for a general textbook that also offers theoretical details and an emphasis on proofs. Certain topics that are often treated with insufficient attention are discussed in more detail here; for example, entire chapters are devoted to regression, multi-class classification, and ranking. The first three chapters lay the theoretical foundation for what follows, but each remaining chapter is mostly self-contained. The appendix offers a concise probability review, a short introduction to convex optimization, tools for concentration bounds, and several basic properties of matrices and norms used in the book.
The book is intended for graduate students and researchers in machine learning, statistics, and related areas; it can be used either as a textbook or as a reference text for a research seminar.
For large [;n;], .... the method tends to have a small bias but a large variance, .... smaller values of [;n;] lead to more diverse training samples but their size is significantly less than [;m;], thus the method tends to have a smaller variance but a larger bias. (查看原文)
...The bound suggests seeking a trade-off between reducing the empirical error versus controlling the size of the hypothesis set... This can be viewed as an instance of the so-called [;Occam's\,\,Razor \,\,principle;]...: Plurality should not be posited without neccessity,... (查看原文)

真的很清晰//好当然是好的，只是learning theory。。

个人认为最好的机器学习书。

采用讲decision function, loss function, 误差分析这种比较符合一般思路的方式写的，和李航那本相比框架差不多，内容略多些，数学分析也比较多

上来直接讲model comparison和learning theory。 这种编排方式真是前无古人

去年的课就发了这本书 越看才越觉得是神书
