A 3-month plan to learn about the mathematics behind machine learning

In this article, I have shared a 3-month plan to learn mathematics for machine learning. As we know, almost all machine learning algorithms make use of concepts of Linear Algebra, Calculus, Probability & Statistics, etc. Some advanced algorithms and techniques also make use of subjects such as Measure Theory(a superset of probability theory), convex and non-convex optimization, and much more. To understand the machine learning algorithms and conduct research in machine learning and its related fields, the knowledge of mathematics becomes a requirement.

The plan that I have shared in this article can be used to prepare for data science interviews, to strengthen mathematical concepts, or to start researching in machine learning. The plan will not only help in understanding the intuition behind machine learning but can also be used in many other advanced fields such as statistical signal processing, computational electrodynamics, etc.
