Linear algebra cheat sheet for deep learning – Towards Data Science

While participating in Jeremy Howard's excellent deep learning course I realized I was a little rusty on the prerequisites and my fuzziness was impacting my ability to understand concepts like backpropagation. I decided to put together a few wiki pages on these topics to improve my understanding. Here is a prettier version of my linear algebra page. In the context of deep learning, linear algebra is a mathematical toolbox that offers helpful techniques for manipulating groups of numbers simultaneously. It provides structures like vectors and matrices (spreadsheets) to hold these numbers and new rules for how to add, subtract, multiply, or divide them.
