MATHEMATICAL FOUNDATIONS OF DEEP LEARNING MODELS AND ALGORITHMS

Konstantinos Spiliopoulos, Richard B. Sowers & Justin Sirignano Graduate Studies in Mathematics, Vol. 252 Deep learning uses multi-layer neural networks to model complex data patterns. Large models - with millions or even billions of parameters are trained on massive datasets. This approach has produced revolutionary advances in image, text, and speech regeneration and also has potential applications in a range of other fields such as engineering, finance, mathematics, and medicine.

This book provides an introduction to the mathematical theory underpinning the recent advances in deep learning. Detailed derivations as well as mathematical proofs are presented for many of the models and optimization methods which are commonly used in machine learning and deep learning.

PLAYING WITH SHAPE AND FORM A Glimpse of Topology

Richard Evan Schwartz Topology is the field of mathematics that studies those properties of a shape which persist when the shape gently evolves and changes its specific form. This book gives a playful and intuitive introduction to topology, favoring simple and crisp illustrations over long explanations and formal definitions. The material includes some of the classic results one would see in undergraduate courses on topology and graph theory, but presents these results in a way that readers without any knowledge of mathematics will be able to understand.

EXPONENTIAL EXPLOSIONS OF TECHNOLOGY Innovations that Changed the World

Joseph W. Goodman Press Monographs, Vol. 404 Explores how technological progress across diverse fields has followed, and often still follows, exponential trajectories. This book begins by explaining the mathematics and meaning of exponential growth, then traces the phenomenon through more than twenty major domains of science and engineering. It weaves together advances in electronics, energy, communications, biotechnology, food production, and land transportation, revealing how compounding innovation has transformed human capability. This text highlights the accelerating improvements in computing power, data storage, imaging, energy production, medical discovery, and artificial intelligence, alongside real-world consequences such as cheaper renewable energy, more powerful neural networks, and the rise of electric vehicles. Later chapters investigate why exponential growth is so pervasive, and what natural, physical, and economic limits might eventually constrain it.
