Books

During my academic career, I’ve taught and mentored thousands of students in machine learning and related fields. I am passionate about breaking down complex concepts into clear, practical, and insightful materials that resonate with learners and professionals alike. I particularly enjoy crafting textbooks that offer accessible introductions to the core ideas of machine learning, bridging the gap between theory and application.
