Course Syllabus

Abstract

Linear algebra is a basic tool used along with mathematical analysis in all applied disciplines. The course develops abstract mathematical thinking on the one hand and introduces powerful tools used in machine learning, signal processing and other areas of computer science.
Learning Objectives

Learning Objectives

  • Introducing students to the basics of linear algebra;
  • Developing students' skills in structural mathematical thinking; .
  • Developing students' skills in using linear algebra in applied problems, especially those arising in data analysis problems and in computer science;
  • Raising the intellectual level and broadening the general cultural horizons of students;
  • Preparing students to study further sections of mathematics and/or related disciplines

Assessment Elements

Assessment Elements

  • non-blocking Quizzes
    There will be short synchronous or asynchronous quizzes. Each quiz will take 10-15 minutes from starting an attempt and will cover the material of the previous topics. Question types might be a multiple-choice or a short answer.
  • non-blocking Home Assignments
  • non-blocking Midterm
  • non-blocking Exam
    There will be a final work at the examination session of the module 1, at the end of October, synchronously with online proctoring at Smart LMS. The duration of the exam is 2 hours.
