Supervised Learning - Mathematical Foundations and Real-World Applications

This book discusses the relevance of probabilistic supervised learning, to the pursuit of automated and reliable prediction of an unknown that is in a state of relationship with another variable. This book is valuable for students across disciplines, including students of computational sciences, statistics, and mathematics.
