Notes
Concept Guides
These are the various notes that I use to learn a new topic / material. These reflect my own understanding of various topics, as guided by the various resources I used to learn them.
Also take a look at some of my blogs posts as follows:
An eight-part tutorial series on Natural Language Processing is available at my substack.
A six-part tutorial series on the basics of Generative AI is available at my substack.
A seven-part tutorial series on the basics of Reinforcement Learning is available at my substack.
A three part series on how to do natural language text processing using R.
Technical Materials
These are like some of the useful proof techniques, some puzzles and interesting mathematical (or statistical) problems I have collected over the years.
Also take a look at,
- Practice questions and solutions to various assignments of the B.Stat. programme at Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata.
- Practice questions and solutions to various assignments of the M.Stat. programme at Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata.
Reflections
These are my own way of understanding the ways of the world, again guided by various non-fiction books, podcasts and a few philosophy lessons.
