This course will provide an introduction to machine learning from a mathematical perspective. The primary objective of this course is to cultivate in students a sense of mathematical curiosity and equip them with the skills to ask mathematical questions when studying machine learning algorithms. Classical supervised learning methods will be presented and studied using the tools from information theory, statistical learning theory, optimization, and basic functional analysis.
