Real Analysis and Probability (Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics)

R. M. Dudley

This is a dense text that combines Real analysis and modern probability theory in 500+ pages. What I like about this book is its treatment that emphasizes the interplay between real analysis and probability theory. Also the exposition of measure theory based on semi-rings gives a deep insight of the algebraic structure of measures.

技术分享

Convex Optimization

Stephen Boyd, and Lieven Vandenberghe

A classic on convex optimization. Everyone that I knew who had read this book liked it. The presentation style is very comfortable and inspiring, and it assumes only minimal prerequisite on linear algebra and calculus. Strongly recommended for any beginners on optimization. Note: the pdf of this book is freely available on the Prof. Boyd‘s website.

Introduction to Smooth Manifolds

John M. Lee

This is the book that I used to learn differential geometry and Lie group theory. It provides a detailed introduction to basics of modern differential geometry -- manifolds, tangent spaces, and vector bundles. The connections between manifold theory and Lie group theory is also clearly explained. It also covers De Rham Cohomology and Lie algebra, where audience is invited to discover the beauty by linking geometry with algebra.

技术分享

Modern Graph Theory

Bela Bollobas

It is a modern treatment of this classical theory, which emphasizes the connections with other mathematical subjects -- for example, random walks and electrical networks. I found some messages conveyed by this book is enlightening for my research on machine learning methods.

技术分享

Probability Theory: A Comprehensive Course (Universitext)

Achim Klenke

This is a complete coverage of modern probability theory -- not only including traditional topics, such as measure theory, independence, and convergence theorems, but also introducing topics that are typically in textbooks on stochastic processes, such as Martingales, Markov chains, and Brownian motion, Poisson processes, and Stochastic differential equations. It is recommended as the main textbook on probability theory.

技术分享

A First Course in Stochastic Processes (2nd Edition)

Samuel Karlin, and Howard M. Taylor

A classic textbook on stochastic process which I think are particularly suitable for beginners without much background on measure theory. It provides a complete coverage of many important stochastic processes in an intuitive way. Its development of Markov processes and renewal processes is enlightening.

技术分享

Poisson Processes (Oxford Studies in Probability)

J. F. C. Kingman

If you are interested in Bayesian nonparametrics, this is the book that you should definitely check out. This manuscript provides an unparalleled introduction to random point processes, including Poisson and Cox processes, and their deep theoretical connections with complete randomness.

Programming

技术分享

Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs (2nd Edition)

Harold Abelson, Gerald Jay Sussman, and Julie Sussman

Timeless classic that must be read by all computer science majors. While some topics and the use of Scheme as the teaching language seems odd at first glance, the presentation of fundamental concepts such as abstraction, recursion, and modularity is so beautiful and insightful that you would never experienced elsewhere.

技术分享

Thinking in C++: Introduction to Standard C++ (2nd Edition)

Bruce Eckel

While it is kind of old (written in 2000), I still recommend this book to all beginners to learn C++. The thoughts underlying object-oriented programming is very clearly explained. It also provides a comprehensive coverage of C++ in a well-tuned pace.

Advanced C++ Metaprogramming

Davide Di Gennaro

Like it or hate it, meta-programming has played an increasingly important role in modern C++ development. If you asked what is the key aspects that distinguishes C++ from all other languages, I would say it is the unparalleled generic programming capability based on C++ templates. This book summarizes the latest advancement of metaprogramming in the past decade. I believe it will take the place of Loki‘s "Modern C++ Design" to become the bible for C++ meta-programming.

技术分享

Introduction to Algorithms (2nd/3rd Edition)

Thomas H. Cormen, Charles E. Leiserson, Ronald L. Rivest, and Clifford Stein

If you know nothing about algorithms, you never understand computer science. This is book is definitely a classic on algorithms and data structures that everyone who is serious about computer science must read. This contents of this book ranges from elementary topics such as classic sorting algorithms and hash table to advanced topics such as maximum flow, linear programming, and computational geometry. It is a book for everyone. Everytime I read it, I learned something new.

技术分享

Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software

Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, and John Vlissides

Textbooks on C++, Java, or other languages typically use toy examples (animals, students, etc) to illustrate the concept of OOP. This way, however, does not reflect the full strength of object oriented programming. This book, which has been widely acknowledged as a classic in software engineering, shows you, via compelling examples distilled from real world projects, how specific OOP patterns can vastly improve your code‘s reusability and extensibility.

技术分享

Structured Parallel Programming: Patterns for Efficient Computation

Michael McCool, James Reinders, and Arch Robison

Recent trends of hardware advancement has switched from increasing CPU frequencies to increasing the number of cores. A significant implication of this change is that "free lunch has come to an end" -- you have to explicitly parallelize your codes in order to benefit from the latest progress on CPU/GPUs. This book summarizes common patterns used in parallel programming, such as mapping, reduction, and pipelining -- all are very useful in writing parallel codes.
