this is a weird collection of ML/computer vision/data processing topics

wavelets as it's own chapter, deep learning only has GANs as a single subsection, graphical models several chapters after the ML chapter...just weird arrangement choices

it's a theory heavy intro to a wide variety of analytical techniques. it's a common refrain that deep learning has very little in the way of theory. and in fact gans with their optimization scheme framed as a game that plays until equilibrium is one of the few pieces, that's also interesting.
