Using SVD to Obtain Regression Lines

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is a factorization of a real or complex matrix, which can then be used in various methods. If matrix M is a real m x n matrix, where m > n we can obtain the following from factorization: In the formula above, U represents the unitary matrix, which defined as the orthogonal matrix in […]

Building a Blog: Month One — April 15 to May 15, 2014

This past month I have done a fair amount of blogging, posting at least one post a day. Most of them have been educational focusing particularly at my coursework: Systems Programming, Numerical Analysis, and my OpenBKZ project (which was also a project for my class, two birds one stone and all). I also had several […]

Over the past month I have ran something of an experiment. I have always been about optimizing pretty much everything. I keep data on how much money I spend, when I go to sleep, my associated exam scores, how many calories I intake, and so on. I am a data guy, this is the main […]
