Linear Methods for Regression: From Least Squares to Modern Extensions
Linear regression is the oldest and perhaps most enduring method in statistical learning. It begins with a simple, powerful idea: that the expected value of a response can be expressed as a linear combination of predictors. This idea is so natural that it seems inevitable — and yet even this foundat...

Classification and Decision Boundaries: From Logistic Regression to Discriminant Analysis
Classification brings a new flavor to learning, where outcomes are labels rather than numeric values. The task is not to estimate a response, but to assign categories based on observed features. Logistic regression emerges as the natural analogue of linear regression for this setting — a model groun...
