Praise for the first edition:
“In nine succinct but information-packed chapters, the authors provide a logically structured and robust introduction to the mathematical and statistical methods underpinning the still-evolving field of AI and data science.”
- Joacim Rocklöv and Albert A. Gayle, International Journal of Epidemiology, Volume 49, Issue 6
“This book organizes the algorithms clearly and cleverly. The way the Python code was written follows the algorithm closely―very useful for readers who wish to understand the rationale and flow of the background knowledge.”
- Yin-Ju Lai and Chuhsing Kate Hsiao, Biometrics, Volume 77, Issue 4
The purpose of Data Science and Machine Learning: Mathematical and Statistical Methods is to provide an accessible, yet comprehensive textbook intended for students interested in gaining a better understanding of the mathematics and statistics that underpin the rich variety of ideas and machine learning algorithms in data science.
New in the Second Edition
This expanded edition provides updates across key areas of statistical learning:
- Monte Carlo Methods: A new section introducing regenerative rejection sampling - a simpler alternative to MCMC.
- Unsupervised Learning: Inclusion of two multidimensional diffusion kernel density estimators, as well as the bandwidth perturbation matching method for the optimal data-driven bandwidth selection.
- Regression: New automatic bandwidth selection for local linear regression.
- Feature Selection and Shrinkage: A new chapter introducing the klimax method for model selection in high-dimensions.
- Reinforcement Learning: A new chapter on contemporary topics such as policy iteration, temporal difference learning, and policy gradient methods, all complete with Python code.
- Appendices: Expanded treatment of linear algebra, functional analysis, and optimization that includes the coordinate-descent method and the novel Majorization–Minimization method for constrained optimization.
Key Features:
- Focuses on mathematical understanding.
- Presentation is self-contained, accessible, and comprehensive.
- Extensive list of exercises and worked-out examples.
- Many concrete algorithms with Python code.
- Full color throughout and extensive indexing.
- A single-counter consecutive numbering of all theorems, definitions, equations, etc., for easier text searches.

About the Author
Zdravko I. Botev, PhD, is the pioneer of several modern statistical methodologies, including the diffusion kernel density estimator, the generalized splitting method for rare-event simulation, the bandwidth perturbation matching method, the regenerative rejection sampling method, and the klimax method for feature selection. His contributions to computational statistics and data science have been recognized with honours such as the Christopher Heyde Medal from the Australian Academy of Science and the Gavin Brown Prize from the Australian Mathematical Society.
Dirk P. Kroese, PhD, is an Emeritus Professor in Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Queensland. He is known for his significant contributions to the fields of applied probability, mathematical statistics, machine learning, and Monte Carlo methods. He has published over 140 articles and 7 books. He is a pioneer of the well-known Cross-Entropy (CE) method, which is being used around the world to help solve difficult estimation and optimization problems in science, engineering, and finance.
Thomas Taimre, PhD, is a Senior Lecturer of Mathematics and Statistics at The University of Queensland. His research interests range from applied probability and Monte Carlo methods to applied physics and the remarkably universal self-mixing effect in lasers. He has published over 100 articles, holds a patent, and is the coauthor of Handbook of Monte Carlo Methods (Wiley).

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
