{"product_id":"a-first-course-in-random-marc-potters-9781108488082","title":"A First Course in Random Matrix Theory","description":"The real world is perceived and broken down as data, models and algorithms in the eyes of physicists and engineers. Data is noisy by nature and classical statistical tools have so far been successful in dealing with relatively smaller levels of randomness. The recent emergence of Big Data and the required computing power to analyse them have rendered classical tools outdated and insufficient. Tools such as random matrix theory and the study of large sample covariance matrices can efficiently process these big data sets and help make sense of modern, deep learning algorithms. Presenting an introductory calculus course for random matrices, the book focusses on modern concepts in matrix theory, generalising the standard concept of probabilistic independence to non-commuting random variables. Concretely worked out examples and applications to financial engineering and portfolio construction make this unique book an essential tool for physicists, engineers, data analysts, and economists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Potters, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108488080\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108488082\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 370\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 7.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Marc Potters","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43994955710719,"sku":"9781108488082","price":73.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d6d9b2ee-ceb2-460d-bfe0-5e31d5901759.jpg?v=1683333171","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-first-course-in-random-marc-potters-9781108488082","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
