One of the most fundamental skills required to get oneself setup with deep learning is a foundational understanding of linear algebra. Though linear algebra itself is a vast subject, and covering it in full is outside the scope of this book, we will go through some important aspects of linear algebra in this chapter. Hopefully, this will give you a sufficient understanding of some core concepts and how they interplay with deep learning methodologies.
Basics of linear algebra
Data representation
In this section, we will look at core data structures and representations used most commonly across different linear algebra tasks. This is not meant to be a comprehensive list at all but only serves to highlight some of the prominent...
