Supervised Learning (Labeled Target Y) │ ├── Regression -> Linear / Ridge (L2 prevents collinearity) │ └── Classification -> Tree Ensembles (XGBoost: Sequential residual boosting) ├── 2. Unsupervised Learning (Latent Structure) │ ├── Clustering -> K-Means (Sensitive to outliers) vs DBSCAN (Density-based) │ └── Dimensionality Reduction -> PCA (Eigenvalue variance) vs t-SNE └── [Cross-Branch Link]: L2 Regularization in Branch 1 is mathematically equivalent to a Gaussian Prior (MAP estimation) in Bayesian Branch 3.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this complement NotebookLM's built-in Mind Map button?

NotebookLM's native Mind Map creates an interactive visual node tree, while running this prompt generates the prerequisite learning order and cross-branch connections that hierarchical trees miss.

Can I export the text tree into Obsidian, Notion, or XMind?

Yes! The indented tree structure pastes directly into XMind, Mermaid.js, Notion toggles, or Obsidian canvas files.

How many PDFs can I combine into one Mind Map?

You can select an entire semester's worth of lecture PDFs (10–30 files) to map how all chapters connect before finals.
