Show Notes
This particular podcast covers the material in Chapter 1 of my new (unpublished) book "Statistical Machine Learning: A unified framework". In this episode we discuss Chapter 1 of my new book, which shows how supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning algorithms can be viewed as special cases of a general empirical risk minimization framework. This is useful because it provides a framework for not only understanding existing algorithms but also for suggesting new algorithms for specific applications.
