About the Course

In this course on Linear Algebra we look at what linear algebra is and how it relates to vectors and matrices. Then we look through what vectors and matrices are and how to work with them, including the knotty problem of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, and how to use these to solve problems. Finally we look at how to use these to do fun things with datasets - like how to rotate images of faces and how to extract eigenvectors to look at how the Pagerank algorithm works. Since we're aiming at data-driven applications, we'll be implementing some of these ideas in code, not just on pencil and paper. Towards the end of the course, you'll write code blocks and encounter Jupyter notebooks in Python, but don't worry, these will be quite short, focussed on the concepts, and will guide you through if you’ve not coded before. At the end of this course you will have an intuitive understanding of vectors and matrices that will help you bridge the gap into linear algebra problems, and how to apply these concepts to machine learning....

Professors teaches in so much friendly manner. This is beginner level course. Don't expect you will dive deep inside the Linear Algebra. But the foundation will become solid if you attend this course.

Excellent review of Linear Algebra even for those who have taken it at school. Handwriting of the first instructor wasn't always legible, but wasn't too bad. Second instructor's handwriting is better.

The instructors explained everything really well. I took Linear Algebra in university and could not understand things as well as in this course!

only the homework is not so friendly to the people who do not use python often, and the other is so good, especially about the teachers, thanks!

Just Brilliant!!! Very well structured with very clear assignments. Doing the assignments is a must if you want to get clarity on the subject.

It was a nice course. The way they explain the concept is really appreciable. This course focused more on intuition rather than rote learning.

A very useful course for Machine learning, you will never feel aloof if you are not with a Mathematics background while learning ML afterward.

The course is very great. I have thoroughly enjoyed taking it. However, 5th module should be improved by teaching diagonalization more deeply.

It's an excellent matrix course. The teachers teach very well.

As it is a specialized program course, previous knowledge in Python is required

I'm only at the beginning of the course but the material is really worth it.

Great instructor. He makes himself very clear and easy to follow.

This course is very well designed, I loved it!

I would like to see an Imperial College London design a fully fledged Machine Learning Course.
