    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 not...

    The instruction was good throughout, but I would urge fellow students to take the time to work through the problems as suggested. Also, the eigen- stuff is quite tricky and can fool you. Be careful.

    the instrutors were too good and their explination for the concepts was to the point and it made me realize things in linear algebra I didn't know before although I studied it in school of engineering

    I am really happy to complete this course and obviously getting exposed to the form of teaching that focuses to develop intuition behind maths rather that working out tons of examples.

    The final coding exercise was tricky if you weren't familiar with coding with Python. But the teachers were great and very enthusiastic about linear algebra -- really a great class.

    Great course for understanding the application of linear algebra in machine learning. Though compared to what I learned in class, they are relatively shallow, but more useful. Thanks~

    Fantastic course that develops the intuition behind Linear Algebra. I'm glad I did it.

    I would couple this course with MIT prof Gilbert Strang's lectures on linear algebra on MIT OCW.

    I really like how this course approaches linear algebra in a rather intuitive way, I find this approach more helpful compared to courses which have a focus on computational aspects.

    One of the more intuitive and useful linear algebra course

    All the small examples and explanation on application to machine learning has been very helpful.

    The activities are great too

    Thanks for your gentle teaching through five weeks. I have a suggestion for WEEK5: the final exam answers could be more detailed as students can revise their coursework. All the best

    Great bite sized videos for a quick overview of linear algebra for ML with interesting and fun assignments. Perhaps works better as a review rather than learning for the first time.

    The course was absolutely fantastic except for the very last week, where I felt the coverage of eigenvectors and page-rank was rushed. At the same time the assignments felt harder.
