Linear Algebra
Compute dot products, measure the length of vectors and matrices, and find how much of one vector lies along another.
Linear Algebra
Multiply matrices, read off the trace, track how shapes combine, and detect when rows collapse to a lower rank.
Linear Algebra
Evaluate 2x2 and 3x3 determinants by hand and use them to reason about orthogonal matrices.
prerequisite: Matrix Products, Trace & Rank
Linear Algebra
Invert 2x2 matrices, recognize orthogonal matrices, and solve the characteristic equation for eigenvalues.
prerequisite: Determinants
Calculus
Differentiate powers, logs, and trigonometric functions, then evaluate the derivative at a point.
Calculus
Differentiate composed functions with the chain rule and take second derivatives.
prerequisite: Basic Derivatives
Calculus
Find antiderivatives and evaluate definite integrals, including one integration by parts.
prerequisite: Basic Derivatives
Statistics
Summarize a data set with its three classic centers: the mean, the median, and the most frequent value.
Statistics
Measure spread with population and sample variance, and understand why Bessel's correction uses n - 1.
prerequisite: Mean, Median & Mode
Statistics
Quantify how two variables move together, standardize individual values, and interpret a correlation of zero.
prerequisite: Variance & Spread
Probability
Count equally likely outcomes, use complements, and compute expected values for simple random experiments.
Probability
Use binomial coefficients, the independence multiplication rule, and expected waiting times in counting problems.
prerequisite: Probability & Expectation
Probability
Work with binomial and geometric variables, and add variances of independent random variables.
prerequisite: Probability & Expectation
ML Fundamentals
Evaluate classifiers with precision, recall, and their harmonic mean.
ML Fundamentals
Understand overfitting, the bias-variance tradeoff, and how L1 regularization creates sparse models.
ML Fundamentals
Compute mean squared error, differentiate it with respect to a weight, and state the k-means objective.
ML Fundamentals
Use probability inside models: sigmoid outputs, Bayes' rule for a positive test, and entropy as uncertainty.
Optimization
Locate minima, test convexity with second derivatives, and evaluate the limit that shows up throughout optimization.
Optimization
Take a gradient descent update, run one Newton step, and find the step-size bound set by the curvature.
prerequisite: Minima, Convexity & Limits
Information Theory
Measure uncertainty in bits for coins and uniform distributions, and reason about KL divergence.
Concepts unlock once each prerequisite reaches 2 reps or 40% mastery. Reviews are scheduled with SM-2; grading here updates the same schedule as Today and Pen & Paper Math.
