The Unsung Hero of Machine Learning — Linear Algebra

The Unsung Hero of Machine Learning — Linear Algebra

Machine learning, data mining, deep learning, and advanced optimization algorithms all rely heavily on linear algebra. In this post, we will go over some of the most fundamental concepts, including Gaussian elimination, Inverse matrices, and the concept of linear dependence and independence. First and foremost, I would like to provide motivation. Linear algebra is widely used in almost all machine learning algorithms. For example, in Machine Learning, it …
