From the course: Machine Learning Foundations: Linear Algebra

Introduction

- [Instructor] Have you ever wondered what happens under the hood of machine learning algorithms? From image and speech recognition, trading algorithms to medical system diagnosis, all the way to the self-driving cars, machine learning is not only the future, it's all around us. You can quickly learn the tools of machine learning without understanding the underlying math. At the beginning, you'll probably be successful, but without knowing the basics of linear algebra, you won't be able to understand the objects being optimized, choose proper hyperparameters, and develop a better model. Linear algebra is the building block of machine learning. Hi, I'm Terezija Semenski. I'm a mathematician, software developer, and teacher with a passion for AI and machine learning. Join me in this course, and discover the power of linear algebra.
