Lecture 3 Linear Equations and Matrices

so multiplication by matrix inverse solves a set of linear equations some comments: • x = A−1b makes solving set of 100 linear equations in 100 variables look simple, but the notation is hiding alot of work!

CS229 Lecture notes - Stanford Engineering Everywhere

we decide to approximate y as a linear function of x: hθ(x) = θ0 +θ1x1 +θ2x2 Here, the θi’s are the parameters (also called weights) parameterizing the space of linear functions mapping from X to Y. When there is no risk of confusion, we will drop the θ …

Locally-weighted logistic regression In this problem you will implement a locally-weighted version of logistic regression, where we weight different training examples differently according to the query point. The locally-weighted logistic regression problem is to maximize ℓ(θ) = − λ 2 θTθ + Xm i=1 w(i) h y(i) logh θ(x (i))+(1−y ...

Lecture 5 Least-squares - Stanford Engineering Everywhere

Least-squares (approximate) solution • assume A is full rank, skinny • to find xls, we’ll minimize norm of residual squared, krk2 = xTATAx−2yTAx+yTy • set gradient w.r.t. x to zero: ∇xkrk2 = 2ATAx−2ATy = 0 • yields the normal equations: ATAx = ATy • assumptions imply ATA invertible, so we have xls = (ATA)−1ATy. . . a very famous formula
