  1. April 30, 2021
  2. page 81, 82, 84
  3. p. 81 (a): the sentence just above the box explaining the training objective p. 81 (b): under section 'Optimization accuracy vs. statistical accuracy' p. 82 (a): line 4 p. 82 (b): line 6-7 p. 84: third line from bottom

Describe the mistake p. 81 (a): "However, this insight is still of practical importance, because is means that" p. 81 (b): "In practice it can difficult to determine" p. 82 (a): "However, due the noise in the data" p. 82 (b): "with the aim of making the optimization problem (5.4) is easier to solve" p. 84: "While cross entropy is commonly used in practice, but there are also other loss functions for binary classification that are useful."

Suggested change p. 81 (a): is means that --> it means that p. 81 (b) In practice it can be difficult to determine p. 82 (a) However, due to the noise in the data p. 82 (b): Remove "is" --> with the aim of making the optimization problem (5.4) easier to solve p. 84: Perhaps remove "but"
