Table of contents Introduction Linear Regression: Concepts and Terminology Types of Linear Regression Evaluating Linear Regression Models Linear Regression in Practice Conclusion Introduction Linear regression is a fundamental concept in machine learning used to establish a relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. It is often the first algorithm used…

Many of my colleagues (both in the media and in academia) appear to know worryingly little about research on the limits and potential problems of AI. …

Complex numbers are an important concept in mathematics that extend the idea of real numbers. A complex number is a number that can be expressed in the form “a + bi,” where ‘a’ and ‘b’ are real numbers, and ‘i’ represents the imaginary unit. The imaginary unit ‘i’ is defined…

“Spacetime tells matter how to move; matter tells spacetime how to curve.” The term “Relativity” was first discovered by Galileo Galilei. An example of this could be imagining yourself walking on the ground and a man is walking on the train beside you, now for the obvious reason his speed…

We often hear it said that “less is more”, and nowhere is this more strikingly illustrated than in the world of Artificial Intelligence. At the heart of today’s most powerful AI models is a remarkably simple mathematical equation, endlessly tweaked and fine-tuned, that can generate impressively human-like text. The Generative…

When I was in Grade 10, my science teacher told me that universities used English grades to predict academic success in mathematics and the sciences. I didn’t take her word for it since math and science seemed unrelated to English, so I decided to find out for myself. I asked…

A comparison between more than two quantities (multitudes or magnitudes) of a different type. — The quantities being compared are called the “terms” of the rate. Multipart rates are also known as multi- term or multi- step rates. Multipart rates are usually written using the forward slash, /, to separate the terms: “𝑎 units / 𝑏 units / 𝑐 units…” As with rates, the forward…

The most basic math guide I could come up with. — Note: Python will be used. This is not a comprehensive review of math Numbers Here are some different number systems: Natural numbers: Numbers such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6… so on. Only positive numbers here. Whole numbers: Same as the natural number, but zero is now added, so it’s…

If the world were a fabric, math would be the thread. Mathematics is often referred to as the universal language of science, and for good reason. Mathematics is the foundation on which engineering principles, innovations, and technological advancements are built. …
