Course on Information Theory, Pattern Recognition, and Neural Networks

Course on Information Theory, Pattern Recognition, and Neural Networks

A series of sixteen lectures covering the core of the book [[http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/mackay/itila/| "Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms (Cambridge University Press, 2003)" ]] which can be bought at Amazon , and is available free online . A subset of these lectures used to constitute a Part III Physics course at the University of Cambridge. The high-resolution videos and all other course material can be downloaded from the Cambridge course website .
