About This Course
Determine the limit or partial derivatives of a multivariate function.
Solve for the gradient or directional derivative of a multivariable function in a given direction.
Show the linear transformations on means and variances/covariances of datasets.
Comment on results obtained by singular value decomposition of a matrix.
Apply linear regression models in data science.
Use Python to perform calculations in matrix algebra, differential multivariable calculus and statistical analysis.
What You'll Learn
Mathematical Foundations for Data Science will introduce students to the essential matrix algebra, optimisation, probability and statistics required for pursuing Data Science. Students will be exposed to computational techniques to perform row operations on matrices, compute partial derivatives and gradients of multivariable functions. Basic concepts on minimisation of cost functions and linear regression will also be taught so that students will have sound mathematical foundations to proceed and understand standard algorithms in Data Science and Machine Learning.
