Course

Linear Algebra: Orthogonality and Diagonalization

Johns Hopkins University

This advanced course in the Linear Algebra Specialization focuses on the theory and computations arising from working with orthogonal vectors. It explores concepts such as orthogonal transformation, orthogonal bases, and symmetric matrices, emphasizing their applications in AI and machine learning. The skills and techniques acquired are crucial for interpreting, training, and utilizing external data in these fields, making the course a valuable asset for students pursuing advanced studies in data science, AI, and mathematics.

The course is divided into four modules:

  1. Module 1: Orthogonality
  2. Module 1 delves into inner product, length, and orthogonality, exploring distance and angles between vectors and providing practice exercises to reinforce learning.

  3. Module 2: Orthogonal Projections and Least Squares Problems
  4. Module 2 covers orthogonal projections, the Gram-Schmidt process, and least-squares problems, offering practical insights into finding orthogonal bases and solutions.

  5. Module 3: Symmetric Matrices and Quadratic Forms
  6. Module 3 delves into the theory of symmetric matrices and quadratic forms, providing in-depth understanding and practice exercises in these areas.

  7. Module 4: Final Assessment
  8. The final module culminates in an assessment to evaluate the comprehensive understanding of the course material.
