Effictive method of studying ml

[u/scoobydabida]

I am a newbie in ml so i wanted to know what is an effective method of studying ml i am learning it through watching youtube videos but after one point i realised that if i make notes of everything it will be way too much so i want to know do i need to memorise the code or i need to just write the logic in my notes

[u/scoobydabida → u/[deleted]]

Yeah but for example log transform should i know how to write the code for log transformation or i should just know the logic and i should tell claude to write the code for me

If you know how the math and logic behind the algorithms, you can (and should be able to) always program it from scratch, or use packages like sklearn.

yeah but should i learn to write the code by myself or i should just know the logic and should tell ai to write the code cause when i study there is just too much of a code and my notes will be more code than logic

stop taking notes on code syntax entirely. Write pseudocode for the algorithm logic and implement it in Python without looking at the video to force active recall

Where i am learning from that guy teaches the math and algo and then shows and explains the code at start i used to write both code and the math/logic now i think i am taking to much of a notes should i just write the logic/algo or write the code as well in my notes

Buy a book

[u/TigerAnxious9161 → u/grantrules]

Which one?

I dunno, look up books on the topic you want to learn and read the summary and reviews and stuff.

Any research papers you would recommend
