Understand the enduring algorithms behind modern AI and data science. Explore the breakthrough algorithms that power modern AI--including Bayes' prior and posterior beliefs, Fisher's estimation and likelihood, Shannon's information gain, and Breiman's algorithmic modeling. With clarity and rigor, statistics expert Gary Sutton unpacks each concept and explains its practical relevance.

This book explains both the how and the why of the most important data science algorithms. Along with the theory and practical application, you'll get the fascinating stories behind the discoveries by Bayes, Fisher, Shannon, Bellman, and others. You'll especially appreciate how author Gary Sutton makes the sometimes-complex seminal papers come to life in rich detail.

Timeless Algorithms, The Foundational Ideas will help you to:

- Diagnose model failures by detecting bias, drift, and overfitting early
