I would say UDL should be very accessible to any undergrad from a strong program. I would not call the notation ‘dense’ rather it’s ‘abused’ notation. Once you have seen the abused notation enough times, it makes just…
Given your background, I think it would be worthwhile for you to pick up ESL [0] and read some relevant sections (supervised/sparse/linear methods). It's a great book and a good starting point for thinking about ML…
Depends on the scope of the project. Would the goal be to come up with a better algorithm for cell classification based on histological images? Or to apply an existing algorithm to a new dataset? The former would be…
I think it's partly the incentive structure that is to be blamed. Historically, quantitative PhDs in healthcare(medical physicists, statisticians, comp. genetics) have been underpaid (in my opinion). Now with FAANG and…
I do respect your experience and take on the matter, however, let's replace this statement: "I'm an eye surgeon and self-taught machine learning practitioner, I started to learn Python in 2016 when the deep learning…
As a rising 5th year PhD in ML -- I could not agree with this advice more! I have very hands-off advisors. I spent the first 3 years "wandering the woods to find something". Last year, I really had to sit down and think…

There is really no difference. You can frame the Kalman filter as a Bayesian posterior inference problem. For example, for a stationary linear Gaussian model, you have a transition model of the form: z_t = Az_{t-1} +…
