ISLP (Introduction to Statistical Learning)
Used in: ML & DL Foundations
Review: A not-so-gentle introduction to statistical learning. Great if you're just learning ML, with great Python examples — but it can get lengthy.
A living timeline of what I'm studying — arranged by timeline and dependency. Want to propose changes or share resource advice? Send me a personal email (it's in the footer). We're all in the loop, after all 😉
Basic concepts in ML & DL, setting the stage for more advanced topics.
Focused on understanding transformers and text generation.
Exploring time series forecasting with both classical and DL approaches.
Deepening understanding of ML theory and foundational math.
Reading core papers and internals of transformers for various modalities.
