Maths for Data Science

A structured math bootcamp covering Linear Algebra, Statistics, Probability, and Calculus — everything you need to understand ML algorithms, neural networks, and data science workflows.


Table of Contents


Why Math for AI/ML/Data Science?

Mathematics is the backbone of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science. It provides the foundational tools to:

  • Build and train ML models (like neural networks, regression, classification)
  • Analyze data using statistical methods
  • Optimize algorithms and improve model performance
  • Understand and interpret real-world datasets

Without a strong grasp of math, it's difficult to truly innovate, debug, or explain AI/ML systems.


What You Will Learn

  • Essential mathematical concepts needed for AI, ML, and Data Science
  • How these concepts are applied in real-world algorithms and workflows
  • Practical problem-solving approaches for data-driven projects

Topics Covered

Linear Algebra

  • Vectors, matrices, eigenvalues, eigenvectors
  • Applications in dimensionality reduction, neural networks, and data transformations

Statistics

  • Descriptive and inferential statistics
  • Hypothesis testing, probability distributions
  • Data analysis and decision-making

Calculus

  • Derivatives, rules of differentiation (product rule, chain rule)
  • Applications in deep learning, optimization, and gradient-based algorithms

Probability

  • Basic Probability: Events, sample spaces, axioms of probability, and fundamental rules
  • Conditional Probability & Bayes’ Theorem: Understanding how probabilities update with new evidence
  • Random Variables: Discrete and continuous types, probability mass and density functions
  • Key Distributions: Bernoulli, Binomial, Poisson, Normal, and their use in modeling data
  • Expectation & Variance: Calculating expected value and variance for random variables

Applications in AI/ML/Data Science

  • AI/ML Models: Math helps design algorithms like linear regression, logistic regression, neural networks, and support vector machines.
  • Neural Networks: Calculus (especially gradients) is essential for backpropagation and training deep learning models.
  • Data Science: Statistics is used for data cleaning, visualization, and hypothesis testing.
  • Real-World Projects: These concepts are applied in recommendation systems, image recognition, natural language processing, and more.
  • Probability Applications: Using probability for uncertainty modeling, risk assessment, and Bayesian inference in data science and ML.
