Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Explore the mathematics of data science with this advanced undergraduate and graduate text integrating theory with applications in Python.
MoreLong description:
Bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and their practical applications with this rigorous introduction to the mathematics underpinning data science. It covers essential topics in linear algebra, calculus and optimization, and probability and statistics, demonstrating their relevance in the context of data analysis. Key application topics include clustering, regression, classification, dimensionality reduction, network analysis, and neural networks. What sets this text apart is its focus on hands-on learning. Each chapter combines mathematical insights with practical examples, using Python to implement algorithms and solve problems. Self-assessment quizzes, warm-up exercises and theoretical problems foster both mathematical understanding and computational skills. Designed for advanced undergraduate students and beginning graduate students, this textbook serves as both an invitation to data science for mathematics majors and as a deeper excursion into mathematics for data science students.
'Mathematical Methods in Data Science provides a clear and accessible primer on key concepts central to data science and machine learning. Through engaging examples from neural networks, recommender systems, and data visualization, Roch illuminates myriad foundational topics and methods. Designed for readers from a broad range of backgrounds, this text is an indispensable resource for students and professionals.' Rebecca Willett, University of Chicago
