i've been loving around with keras for the last month or two. makes it pretty easy to start getting results without caring too much about the math underneath.

you'll need to learn the math eventually though.

I wanna learn the math

neural networks are matrices with racism inside

looking forward to running a clustering algorithm on crime statistics and seeing what it has to say about demographics

last night i learned about naive bayes classifiers and how to make a linear regression model while touching up on my linear algebra that i haven't done in over a decade. good website.

i only really did edx courses for stuff and you can pay there if you want to get a shiny linkedin cert, it�s not very expensive

LinkedIn certs are worthless and nobody cares about them.

A LinkedIn cert is like the gold sticker the teacher gives the div kid in school because he was able to correctly recite his 2 times tables. Nobody cares about it.

op: no you don't

if you waited this long for it to be "cool" then you are just chasing a trend and you're not up for the math

maybe what you actually want is to be able to bullshit sufficiently about these topics to put them on your resume?

Nope, I want to do it properly.

why? what is your motivation for learning this thing? what if i told you that behind all the fancy math, it is mostly horseshit, and people will move on to the next thing within 5 years or so once all the promises don't pan out?

Who cares.

I'm not asking to simulate a human brain. I just want to do interesting data analysis.

really i am very interested in the math but everything glosses over it as hard as it can so as soon as i start following a tutorial i don't understand what i am doing anymore
like cool, magic, i made a thing that very narrowly accomplishes whatever the tutorial set as the task, but i want to know the theoretical stuff and not cast computer spells

Those Coursera videos are good and they seem to go over the essentials. Understanding what's actually going on underneath the surface of svd() or whatever is what I want.

I thought I'd forgotten all the math until I read the briefs and was like oh yeah that's how it's done. It's easy once you've mastered it at least once.
