Linear Algebra for Data Science
Linear algebra is a basic tool in many disciplines, and multivariate statistical analysis is inseparable from it. If you asked me to give this course another name, I think it would be “Applied Linear Algebra”. In this section, I will provide you with a comprehensive review combining some statistical ideas. In addition, I believe the best way of learning linear algebra is through geometry, so many animations are applied to visualize the geometry. I hope it can help you recall everything and even have a deeper understanding of linear algebra.
Before we start, I have one question for you. Who is the protagonist of linear algebra? You may think it is the Matrix since usually we start from many complicated calculations on matrices in most linear algebra courses. However, I don’t think so and believe the leading man in linear algebra is Vector!
