Data Science Summer School 2022 | Calculus for Data Science
Part of the Data Science Summer School 2022: https://ds3.ai/ Organised by the Hertie School Data Science Lab.
Instructor: Prof. Zuheir Desai (https://zuheirdesai.com/)
Many data science challenges, particularly those in machine learning and deep learning, are essentially optimisation problems. Ever wondered how exactly a logistic regression algorithm is implemented? Or how to use gradient descent? To understand how these methods work, you need to use concepts from Calculus - gradient, derivatives, limits, and chain rule. This workshop will help you to develop an understanding in this important branch of mathematics for data science.
