pyprobml
Python 3 code for my new book series Probabilistic Machine Learning. This is work in progress, so expect rough edges. Getting less rough...
Jupyter notebooks
For each chapter there are one or more accompanying Jupyter notebooks that cover some of the material in more detail.
When you open a notebook, there will be a button at the top that says 'Open in colab'. If you click on this, it will start a virtual machine (VM) instance on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), running Colab. This has most of the libraries you will need (e.g., scikit-learn, JAX) pre-installed, and gives you access to a free GPU. See this tutorial for details on how to use Colab.
Book 1 (PML: An Introduction)
See this link for a list of notebooks.
Book 2 (PML: Advanced topics)
See this link for a list of notebooks.
Running scripts to make individual figures
Many of the figures in the book are generated by various scripts.
To run these, first clone this gihub repo. (For some tutorials on how to use github, see github guides.)
Then, to manually execute an individual script from the command line,
follow this example:
export PYPROBML=/Users/kpmurphy/github/pyprobml // set this to the directory where you downloaded this repo
cd $PYPROBML
python3 scripts/softmax_plot.py // writes to /Users/kpmurphy/github/pyprobml/figures/softmax_temp.pdf
The notebook for each chapter uses these scripts to recreate all the figures for that chapter.
Viewing the scripts
To browse the code using VScode instead of the gihub file viewer, you can just replace
https://github.com/probml/pyprobml/tree/master/scripts
with
https://github1s.com/probml/pyprobml/tree/master/scripts (see this tweet).
The output should look like this:
