The first half is more or less my learning path in the past two years while the second half is my plan for this year. I tried to make a balance between comprehension and doability. For more extensive lists, you can check Github search or CS video lectures
Hope the list is helpful, especially to whom are not in CS major but interested in data science!
- One Month Plan
- Machine Learning
- Natural Language Processing
- Deep Learning
- Systems
- Analytics
- Reinforcement Learning
- Other Courses
- Interviews
- Bayesian
- Time series
- Quant
- More Lists
You may find the list overwhelming. Here is my suggestion if you want to have some basic understanding in one month:
- Learn Python the hard way: Free book
- Stanford Statistical Learning (Course page) or Coursera Stanford by Andrew Ng (Coursera, Youtube)
- Ng’s deep learning courses: Coursera
- Stanford - Basic NLP course on Coursera: Videos, Slides
- Keras in 30 sec: Link
- Stanford Statistical Learning: Course page
- Coursera Stanford by Andrew Ng: Coursera, Youtube
- Stanford 229: Youtube, Course page
- Machine Learning Foundations (機器學習基石): Coursera , Youtube
- Machine Learning Techniques (機器學習技法): Youtube
- CMU 701 by Tom Mitchell: Course page
- Introduction to Statistical Learning: pdf
- Computer Age Statistical Inference: Algorithms, Evidence, and Data Science: pdf
- The Elements of Statistical Learning: pdf
Statistical Learning is the introduction course. It is free to earn a certificate. It follows Introduction to Statistical Learning book closely. Coursera Stanford by Andrew Ng is another introduction course course and quite popular. Taking either of them is enough for most of data science positions. People want to go deeper can take 229 or 701 and read ESL book.
- Stanford - Basic NLP course on Coursera: Videos, Slides
- Stanford - CS224n Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning: Course web, Videos
- CMU - Neural Nets for NLP 2017: Course web, Videos
- University of Oxford and DeepMind - Deep Learning for Natural Language Processing: 2016-2017: Course web, Videos and slides
- Sequence Models by Andrew Ng on Coursera: Coursera
- Speech and Language Processing (3rd ed. draft): Book
- An Introduction to Information Retrieval: pdf
- Deep Learning (Some chapters or sections): Book
- A Primer on Neural Network Models for Natural Language Processing: Paper. Goldberg also published a new book this year
- NLTK: http://www.nltk.org/
- Standord packages: https://nlp.stanford.edu/software/
The basic NLP course by Stanford is the fundamental one. SLP 3ed follows this course. After this, feel free to take one of the three NLP+DL courses. They basically cover same topics. The Stanford one have HWs available online. CMU one follows Goldberg's book. Deepmind one is much shorter.
Some other people's collections: NLP, DL-NLP, Speech and NLP, Speech, RNN
- Ng’s deep learning courses: Coursera. This specialization is so popular. Prof. Ng covers all a lot of details and he is really a good teacher.
- Tensorflow. Stanford CS20SI: Youtube
- Stanford 231n: Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition (Spring 2017): Youtube, Couse page
- Stanford 224n: Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning (Winter 2017): Youtube, Course page
- The self-driving car is a really hot topic recently. Take a look at this short course to see how it works. MIT 6.S094: Deep Learning for Self-Driving Cars: Youtube, Couse page
- Neural Networks for Machine Learning by Hinton: Coursera. This course is so hard for me but it covers almost everything about neural networks. Prof. Hinton is the hero.
- FAST.ai: Course
- Deep learning book by Ian Goodfellow: http://www.deeplearningbook.org/. Very detailed reference book.
- ArXiv for research updates: https://arxiv.org/. I found it the mobile version of Feedly is useful to follow ArXiv. Also, try https://deeplearn.org/ or http://www.arxiv-sanity.com/top.
- LSTM: My collection
Ng's courses are already good enough. Reading Part 2 of Goodfellow's book can also be helpful. Learning one kind of DL packages is important, such as Keras, TF or Pytorch. People may choose a focus, either CV or NLP. People want to have deeper understanding of DL can take Hinton's course and read Part 3 of Goodfellow's book. Fast.ai has very practical courses.
