A partial solution manual for: The Elements of Statistical Learning by Jerome Friedman, Trevor Hastie, and Robert Tibshirani
This work is expected to be used as a supplementary material for Weatherwax and Epstein's solution manual, which I found to be very helpful when self-studying this popular textbook. The numbering of chapters and problems are based on the 2nd edition of this book (10th printing with corrections, Jan 2013) available online.

The author was not able to solve all the excercises. Even for the solutions included we expect many mistakes and shortcomings. It would be of great help if people could suggest possible solutions or help us find and correct the errors so this solution manual can be continuously improved to benefit more interested readers. We are also open to all comments and criticisms.
Many thanks to: (to be updated)
