A collection of statistical models implemented with Python on Google Colab

Machine Learning Feynman Experience

"What I cannot create, I do not understand" - Feynman.

This is a collection of concepts I tried to implement using only Python, NumPy and SciPy on Google Colaboratory. If you want to play with the code, feel free to copy the notebook and have fun.

Notebooks

• Law of large numbers
• Markov chains
• Single parameter frequentist inference
• Simple linear regression
• Multiple linear regression

Work in progress

• Generalized linear models
• Expectation maximization

To do

• Principal component analysis
• Linear discriminant analysis
• Central limit theorem
• Single parameter bayesian inference
• Decision tree
• Random Forest
• Support vector machine
• Perceptron
• Gradient boosting machine
• Autoregressive models
