Danka writes extensive Bottom-up approach to Machine Learning
In addition to his approach, he explains through practical application.
I strongly believe, bottom-up approach is how one understands in-depth.
So what do I do to understand?
1. Read formal definition
2. Try to summarize in your words
3. Ask questions, Why, How, Where
4. Figure out problems, where you'd require it
5. Take breaks, repeat
One thing, that went to my mind as I was going through, Where do I apply this?
Take Compact Sets, we use it in Optimization - where exactly?
Why care about bottom-up approach?
Imagine, formulating algorithms which could mitigate heart-attacks by interventions using advance predictions.
