# Details
📗 Slides:
(1) The slides subtitled "Definition" and "Quiz" contain the mathematics and statistics that you are required to know for the exams. (2) The slides subtitled "Motivation" and "Discussion" contain concepts you should be familiar with, but the specific mathematics will not be tested on the exam.
(3) The slides subtitled "Description" and "Algorithm" are mostly useful for programming homework, not exams.
(4) The slides subtitled "Admin" are not relevant to the course materials.
📗 Questions:
(1) Around a third of the questions will be identical to the homework or quiz or past exam questions (different randomization of parameters), you can practice by solving these question again with someone else's ID (auto-grading will not work if you do not enter an ID). (2) Around a third of the questions will be similar to the homework or quiz or past exam questions (similar method to solve the problems).
(3) Around a third of the questions will be new, mostly from topics not covered in the homework, and reading the slides will be helpful.
📗 Question types:
All questions will ask you to enter a number, vector (or list of options), or matrix. There will be no drawing or selecting objects on a canvas, and no text entry or essay questions. You will not get the hints like the ones in the homework. You can type your answers in a text file directly and submit it on Canvas. If you use the website, you can use the "calculate" button to make sure the expression you entered can be evaluated correctly when graded. You will receive 0 for incorrect answers and not-evaluate-able expressions, no partial marks, and no additional penalty for incorrect answers. # Other Materials

# Keywords and Notations
📗 Clustering
📗 Single Linkage: \(d\left(C_{k}, C_{k'}\right) = \displaystyle\min\left\{d\left(x_{i}, x_{i'}\right) : x_{i} \in C_{k}, x_{i'} \in C_{k'}\right\}\), where \(C_{k}, C_{k'}\) are two clusters (set of points), \(d\) is the distance function.
📗 Complete Linkage: \(d\left(C_{k}, C_{k'}\right) = \displaystyle\max\left\{d\left(x_{i}, x_{i'}\right) : x_{i} \in C_{k}, x_{i'} \in C_{k'}\right\}\).
📗 Average Linkage: \(d\left(C_{k}, C_{k'}\right) = \dfrac{1}{\left| C_{k} \right| \left| C_{k'} \right|} \displaystyle\sum_{x_{i} \in C_{k}, x_{i'} \in C_{k'}} d\left(x_{i}, x_{i'}\right)\), where \(\left| C_{k} \right|, \left| C_{k'} \right|\) are the number of the points in the clusters.
📗 Distortion (Euclidean distance): \(D_{K} = \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{n} d\left(x_{i}, c_{k^\star\left(x_{i}\right)}\left(x_{i}\right)\right)^{2}\), \(k^\star\left(x\right) = \mathop{\mathrm{argmin}}_{k = 1, 2, ..., K} d\left(x, c_{k}\right)\), where \(k^\star\left(x\right)\) is the cluster \(x\) belongs to.
📗 K-Means Gradient Descent Step: \(c_{k} = \dfrac{1}{\left| C_{k} \right|} \displaystyle\sum_{x \in C_{k}} x\).
📗 Projection: \(\text{proj} _{u_{k}} x_{i} = \left(\dfrac{u_{k^\top} x_{i}}{u_{k^\top} u_{k}}\right) u_{k}\) with length \(\left\|\text{proj} _{u_{k}} x_{i}\right\|_{2} = \left(\dfrac{u_{k^\top} x_{i}}{u_{k^\top} u_{k}}\right)\), where \(u_{k}\) is a principal direction.
📗 Projected Variance (Scalar form, MLE): \(V = \dfrac{1}{n} \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{n} \left(u_{k^\top} x_{i} - \mu_{k}\right)^{2}\) such that \(u_{k^\top} u_{k} = 1\), where \(\mu_{k} = \dfrac{1}{n} \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{n} u_{k^\top} x_{i}\).
📗 Projected Variance (Matrix form, MLE): \(V = u_{k^\top} \hat{\Sigma} u_{k}\) such that \(u_{k^\top} u_{k} = 1\), where \(\hat{\Sigma}\) is the convariance matrix of the data: \(\hat{\Sigma} = \dfrac{1}{n} \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{n} \left(x_{i} - \hat{\mu}\right)\left(x_{i} - \hat{\mu}\right)^\top\), \(\hat{\mu} = \dfrac{1}{n} \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{n} x_{i}\).
📗 New Feature: \(\left(u_{1^\top} x_{i}, u_{2^\top} x_{i}, ..., u_{K^\top} x_{i}\right)^\top\).
📗 Reconstruction: \(x_{i} = \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{m} \left(u_{k^\top} x_{i}\right) u_{k} \approx \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{K} \left(u_{k^\top} x_{i}\right) u_{k}\) with \(u_{k^\top} u_{k} = 1\).
📗 Uninformed Search
📗 Breadth First Search (Time Complexity): \(T = 1 + b + b^{2} + ... + b^{d}\), where \(b\) is the branching factor (number of children per node) and \(d\) is the depth of the goal state.
📗 Breadth First Search (Space Complexity): \(S = b^{d}\).
📗 Depth First Search (Time Complexity): \(T = b^{D-d+1} + ... + b^{D-1} + b^{D}\), where \(D\) is the depth of the leafs.
📗 Depth First Search (Space Complexity): \(S = \left(b - 1\right) D + 1\).
📗 Iterative Deepening Search (Time Complexity): \(T = d + d b + \left(d - 1\right) b^{2} + ... + 3 b^{d-2} + 2 b^{d-1} + b^{d}\).
📗 Iterative Deepening Search (Space Complexity): \(S = \left(b - 1\right) d + 1\).
📗 Informed Search
📗 Admissible Heuristic: \(h : 0 \leq h\left(s\right) \leq h^\star\left(s\right)\), where \(h^\star\left(s\right)\) is the actual cost from state \(s\) to the goal state, and \(g\left(s\right)\) is the actual cost of the initial state to \(s\).
📗 Local Search
📗 Hill Climbing (Valley Finding), probability of moving from \(s\) to a state \(s'\) \(p = 0\) if \(f\left(s'\right) \geq f\left(s\right)\) and \(p = 1\) if \(f\left(s'\right) < f\left(s\right)\), where \(f\left(s\right)\) is the cost of the state \(s\).
📗 Simulated Annealing, probability of moving from \(s\) to a worse state \(s'\) = \(p = e^{- \dfrac{\left| f\left(s'\right) - f\left(s\right) \right|}{T\left(t\right)}}\) if \(f\left(s'\right) \geq f\left(s\right)\) and \(p = 1\) if \(f\left(s'\right) < f\left(s\right)\), where \(T\left(t\right)\) is the temperature as time \(t\).
📗 Genetic Algorithm, probability of get selected as a parent in cross-over: \(p_{i} = \dfrac{F\left(s_{i}\right)}{\displaystyle\sum_{j=1}^{n} F\left(s_{j}\right)}\), \(i = 1, 2, ..., N\), where \(F\left(s\right)\) is the fitness of state \(s\).
📗 Adversarial Search
📗 Sequential Game (Alpha Beta Pruning): prune the tree if \(\alpha \geq \beta\), where \(\alpha\) is the current value of the MAX player and \(\beta\) is the current value of the MIN player.
📗 Simultaneous Move Game (rationalizable): remove an action \(s_{i}\) of player \(i\) if it is strictly dominated \(F\left(s_{i}, s_{-i}\right) < F\left(s'_{i}, s_{-i}\right)\), for some \(s'_{i}\) of player \(i\) and for all \(s_{-i}\) of the other players.
📗 Simultaneous Move Game (Nash equilibrium): \(\left(s_{i}, s_{-i}\right)\) is a (pure strategy) Nash equilibrium if \(F\left(s_{i}, s_{-i}\right) \geq F\left(s'_{i}, s_{-i}\right)\) and \(F\left(s_{i}, s_{-i}\right) \geq F\left(s_{i}, s'_{-i}\right)\), for all \(s'_{i}, s'_{-i}\).
