Ensure students are fully prepared for A-Level Maths with this revised second edition, fully updated to bridge the GCSE Maths 9-1 and A-level 2017 specifications. Written by an experienced A-level author who is a practising A-level teacher, this fully updated edition is an ideal resource to be used in the classroom or for independent study. Similar in structure to Collins Maths revision guides, the Bridging GCSE and A-level Maths Student Book is split into an explanation section and a practice section. * Identify and understand the transition from GCSE to AS and A-level Maths with 'What you should already know' objectives and 'What you will learn' objectives at the start of each topic * Get a head start on your AS/A-level Maths with introductions to key pure maths topics for all exam boards (AQA, OCR, MEI and Edexcel) * Boost your understanding with worked examples which include extra guidance in the form of 'Handy hint', 'Checkpoint', 'A-level Alert!' and 'Common error' boxes * Reinforce and build on your maths to fully prepare you for AS level/A-level with worked examples and plenty of practice questions from Grades 7-9 at GCSE Level extending to AS standard * Think and draw on different areas of maths with investigations at the end of some topics * Check your progress with answers to Maths practice questions at the back of the book * Test your understanding of the maths you've covered with the practice exam paper

The fundamental mathematical tools needed to understand machine learning include linear algebra, analytic geometry, matrix decompositions, vector calculus, optimization, probability and statistics. These topics are traditionally taught in disparate courses, making it hard for data science or computer science students, or professionals, to efficiently learn the mathematics. This self-contained textbook bridges the gap between mathematical and machine learning texts, introducing the mathematical concepts with a minimum of prerequisites. It uses these concepts to derive four central machine learning methods: linear regression, principal component analysis, Gaussian mixture models and support vector machines. For students and others with a mathematical background, these derivations provide a starting point to machine learning texts. For those learning the mathematics for the first time, the methods help build intuition and practical experience with applying mathematical concepts. Every chapter includes worked examples and exercises to test understanding. Programming tutorials are offered on the book's web site.
