Page 23, Exercise 1.10 Here is an experiment that illustrates the difference between a single bin and multiple bins. Run a computer simulation for flipping 1,000 fair coins. Flip each coin independently 10 times. Let’s focus on 3 coins as follows: is the first coin flipped; is a coin you choose at random ; is […]

Learning From Data – A Short Course: Exercise 1.9
Page 19, Exercise 1.9. If , use the Hoeffding Inequality to bound the probability that a sample fo 10 marbles will have and compare the answer to the previous exercise. means any number slightly less than (reference). Hence: If so: We observe that: is true.
Learning From Data – A Short Course: Exercise 1.8
Page 19, Exercise 1.8. If , what is the probability that a sample of 10 marbles will have ? Here we have N = 10 (a sample of 10 marbles): Hence:
Learning From Data – A Short Course: Problem 2.5
Page 69, Problem 2.5. Prove by induction that , hence Base cases: Induction step for : We will prove later, for now, we will use its result: : : So follows. Prove by induction: Base case: Induction step for : […]
