Weekly Meeting
A probability study group was proposed on the noisebridge-discuss list and cc'ed to the Machine Learning mailing list.
The goal is to go through the 7 chapters of Fundamentals of Applied Probability Theory at a pace of 1 chapter per week.
Proposed meeting format:
- 30 min - a volunteer presents the material in the chapter (this will be for people who didn't have time to read the chapter at home, and for those who want to teach)
- 30-45 min - discussion and problem solving (those who solved the problems at home can compare answers, those who didn't can work on the problems together)
