A gentle introduction to the materials of the first 3 lectures and an overview of probability theory, can be found in chapters 1-6 and 11-12 of the following book: Sanjeev Kulkarni and Gilbert Harman: An Elementary Introduction to Statistical Learning Theory, 2012.
Afterward, we hope to cover chapters 1-8 from the book: Foundations of machine learning, Mehryar Mohri, Afshin Rostamizadeh, and Ameet Talwalker, 2012. These books can be downloaded from http://gen.lib.rus.ec/ .

Russian texts
The following links might help students who have trouble with English. A lecture on VC-dimensions was given by K. Vorontsov. A course on Statistical Learning Theory by Nikita Zhivotovsky is given at MIPT. Some short description about PAC learning on p136 in the book ``Наука и искусство построения алгоритмов, которые извлекают знания из данных, Петер Флах. On machinelearning.ru you can find brief and clear definitions.
