Linear Algebra With Machine Learning and Data by Crista Arangala

Linear Algebra With Machine Learning and Data by Crista Arangala

This book takes a deep dive into several key linear algebra subjects as they apply to data analytics and data mining. The book offers a case study approach where each case will be grounded in a real-world application. This text is meant to be used for a second course in applications of Linear Algebra to Data Analytics, with a supplemental chapter on Decision Trees and their applications in regression analysis. The text can be considered in two different but overlapping general data analytics categories: clustering and interpolation. Knowledge of mathematical techniques related to data analytics and exposure to interpretation of results within a data analytics context are particularly valuable for students studying undergraduate mathematics. Each chapter of this text takes the reader through several relevant case studies using real-world data. All data sets, as well as Python and R syntax, are provided to the reader through links to Github documentation. Following each chapter is a short exercise set in which students are encouraged to use technology to apply their expanding knowledge of linear algebra as it is applied to data analytics. A basic knowledge of the concepts in a first Linear Algebra course is assumed; however, an overview of key concepts is presented in the Introduction and as needed throughout the text.

Dr. Crista Arangala is Professor of Mathematics and Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Elon University in North Carolina. She has been teaching and researching in a variety of fields including inverse problems, applied partial differential equations, applied linear algebra, mathematical modeling and service learning education. She runs a traveling science museum with her Elon University students in Kerala, India. Dr. Arangala was chosen to be a Fulbright Scholar in 2014 as a visiting lecturer at the University of Colombo where she continued her projects in inquiry learning in Linear Algebra and began working with a modeling team focusing on Dengue fever research. Dr. Arangala has published several textbooks that implore inquiry learning techniques including Exploring Linear Algebra: Labs and Projects with MATLAB® and Mathematical Modeling: Branching Beyond Calculus.
