Gradient Descent, Step-by-Step

Gradient Descent is the workhorse behind most of Machine Learning. When you fit a machine learning method to a training dataset, you're probably using Gradient Descent. It can optimize parameters in a wide variety of settings. Since it's so fundamental to Machine Learning, I decided to make a "step-by-step" video that shows you exactly how it works.

StatQuest with Josh Starmer

Statistics, Machine Learning and Data Science can sometimes seem like very scary topics, but since each technique is really just a combination of small and simple steps, they are actually quite simple. My goal with StatQuest is to break down the major methodologies into easy to understand pieces. That said, I don't dumb down the material. Instead, I build up your understanding so that you are smarter.
