- "as we say in Figure 1.4 ... " => The caption of Fig 1.4 doesn't say this, but the statement can be infered from the bottom right figure. Maybe "as we show" is better?
Page 13
- Caption of Fig 1.5: add "/N" to the formula for E_{RMS}
- close to the end: "In Figure 1.6. We see that" => "In Figure 1.6, we see that"
Page 14
- caption of Fig 1.6: "least squares" was not used before (unless I missed it). I think a short explanation what is meant by it would be good.
Page 15
- Fig 1.7 left: "ln \lambda = -18" => "ln \lambda = -20"
- Table 1.2: "ln \lambda = -18" => "ln \lambda = -20"
Page 16
- middle: "pattern recognition" was not used before (unless I missed it). I think a short explanation what is meant by it would be good.
- close to end: "information ambiguous" => "information is ambiguous"
Page 19
- close to end: "In the top left is a histogram" => "In the top right is a histogram"
Page 23
- "several continuous variables x_1, ... x_d" => "several continuous variables x_1, ... x_D"
Page 25
- middle: "the chosen box was the blue one" => "the chosen box was the red one" (blue is not bad, but the discussion was about the red box)
Page 26
- middle: "consider a the distribution" => remove "a" or "the"
Page 27
- middle: after "common sense is violated", there's a question mark
- middle: "context of of polynomial" => "context of polynomial"
- in Laplace box: "he was also made" => "he has also made" (I think it would be nicer to swap Bayes box and Laplace box, because we first here about Bayes in the text, and Laplace is somehow hidden).
Page 29
- middle: "X = (x_1 ..." => X should be in bold and not italic, for vector
- middle: "n=1,...N" => I think it shouldn't be there at all, we don't use n before 1.46, where it's clear what it is
- middle: "from a Gaussian distribution" => I think it would be more clear: "from a univariate Gaussian distribution", because we just talked about multi-variate.
Page 32
- just before 1.2.5: "likelihood liesat the root" => "likelihood lies at the root"
- bottom: it's a bit confusing that the presicion, which was denoted by lambda on page 28, is now denoted by beta. Maybe one of them can be changed, or maybe a little explanation would do.
Page 34
- 3rd line: "parameters called" => "parameters are called"
Page 36
- second last line: "by a factor of M" => shouldn't it be "by a factor of S"?
