User:IssaRice/Math resources I like

From Machinelearning
  • Terence Tao's notes and books
  • Tim Gowers's blog (especially intro logic)
  • Evan Chen's infinite napkin
  • mathematicalmonk's youtube videos
  • Vipul's notes
  • abstractmath.org and Charles Wells's handbook of math jargon (or whatever it's called)
  • https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2SOU6wwxB0uwwH80KTQ6ht66KWxbzTIo -- pretty good lectures on statistics
  • Sutton and Barto (2nd edition) -- this is still a math book (i.e. horrible compared to learning media that will be available in the future), but it's unbelievably good and polished and clear and and and... This book seems to have just about the right level of rigor+intution+repetitiveness. I really wish the book emphasized more a few things though (like, if you can rattle off the bellman equations using backup diagrams, everything in chapters 3 and 4 become trivial). you do need to know your stats/probability/analysis pretty comfortably though. what kind of madman is rich sutton (or andrew barto)?
