Read on Hacker News…s pretty dense and time consuming. However, I come from a Physics background, so the math is just different, and may in fact be easier. However, I've been referencing my Mathematical Methods for Physicists book (Boas) pretty often to brush up on some linear algebra techniques. Lastly, its been said quite a bit in these forums, but if you are just interested in implementing this stuff, definitely check out Collective Intelligence by Oreilly. I use that book in tandem to bring some of the high-level concepts back down to earth. :) Good luck
