An introduction to linear algebra, with emphasis on data science and machine learning. Topics include vectors, inner products, norms, linear independence, orthonormal sets, Gram-Schmidt algorithm, clustering and the k-means algorithm, linear systems, matrix algebra, matrix inverses, linear and affine transformations, linear dynamical systems, least-squares, data fitting, eigenvalues, and singular value decomposition. Additional applications may include QR factorization, adjacency matrices and network flow, computer graphics, regularization, cross-validation, classification, constrained least-squares, time-series prediction, linear quadratic control, dimensionality reduction, principal component analysis, and portfolio optimization. Students will use Python throughout this course.
