Linear algebra is a fundamental topic for anyone working in machine learning, and it plays a critical role in understanding the inner workings of algorithms and data models. In this book, you’ll learn how to apply linear algebra to real-world problems and gain a deep understanding of the concepts that drive machine learning.
What is different:
What sets this book apart is its different approach to teaching. Rather than presenting abstract mathematical concepts in isolation, the content is structured like a story with real-life examples that illustrate the practical applications of linear algebra. It is written in a conversational style as if you were having a one-on-one conversation with me, and the structure resembles a story.
To whom:
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced practitioner, this book will help you master the essentials of linear algebra and build a solid foundation for your machine-learning journey. It assumes no prior knowledge of linear algebra, making it perfect for beginners. However, it also includes advanced concepts, making it a valuable resource for more experienced learners.
