In statistical modeling and machine learning, we often work in a logarithmic scale. There are many good reasons for this. For example, when xxx and yyy are both small numbers, multiplying xxx times yyy may underflow. However, we can work in a logarithmic scale to convert multiplication to addition because| gregorygundersen.com
