This textbook is aimed at computer science undergraduates late in sophomore or early in junior year, supplying a comprehensivebackground in qualitative and quantitative data analysis, probability, random variables, and statistical methods, including machine learning. With careful treatment of topics that fill the curricular needs for the course, features: • A treatment of random variables and expectations dealing primarily with the discrete case. • A chapter dealing with classification, explaining why it’s useful; how to train SVM classifiers with stochastic gradient descent; and how to use implementations of more advanced methodssuch asrandom forests and nearest neighbors. • A chapter dealing with clustering via agglomerative methods and k-means, showing how to build vector quantized features for complex signals. Illustrated throughout, each main chapter includes many worked examples and other pedagogical elements such as
