Free Access to a Book: Math of Deep Learning

From DSC, requires simple sign-up.  Math-Technical, with code examples.

Math of Deep Learning: Free Chapter from 832-page eBook
Posted by Capri Granville 
The title of the eBook is Dive in Deep Learning. Below I list the content of chapter 16, dealing with the math of deep learning. But the whole book (entirely free) is worth reading. This is an interactive deep learning book with code, math, and discussions. It is based on the NumPy interface.
