When researching topics for my work (and for posts), I sometimes stumble upon the same blog more than once for different reasons. One of these is this one:
http://extremelearning.com.au/
It’s run by a Tasmanian physicist turned data scientist. Topics include quasi-random sequences, the Fisher-Yates sampling algorithm, and sampling points uniformly on a triangle.
Update: A post on the multi-arm bandit problem, which is a prototypical problem in reinforcement learning.
