The Roadmap of Mathematics for Machine Learning

Understanding the mathematics behind machine learning algorithms is a superpower. If you have ever worked on a real-life problem, you probably experienced that being familiar with the details can go a long way if you want to move beyond baseline performance. This is especially true when you want to push the boundaries of state-of-the-art.
