Matrix Potpourri # As part of reviewing Linear Algebra for my Machine Learning class, I've noticed there's a bunch of matrix terminology that I didn't encounter during my proof-based self-study of LA from Linear Algebra Done Right. This post is mostly intended to consolidate my own understanding and to act as a reference to future me, but if it also helps others in a similar position, that's even better! |

It took me longer than necessary to understand how a rotation transform matrix rotates a vector through three-dimensional space. Not because it's a difficult concept but because it is often poorly explained in textbooks. Even the most explanatory book might derive the matrix for a rotation around one axis (e.g., x) but then present the other two matrices without showing their derivation. I'll explain my own understanding of their derivation in hopes that it will enlighten others that didn't catch on right away. |

In linear algebra terms, a correlation matrix is a symmetric positive semidefinite matrix with unit diagonal. In other words, it is a symmetric matrix with ones on the diagonal whose eigenvalues are all nonnegative. The term comes from statistics. If $latex x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n$ are column vectors with $latex m$ elements, each vector containing... |
