This course will cover the mathematical topics necessary to, e.g., begin understanding general feedforward neural network structures, including convolutional neural networks. The course will cover finite dimensional inner product spaces, norms and related inequalities, unitary matrices and their properties, discrete Fourier transform matrices, convolutions and the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm, the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), least squares regression, and tools used in linear inverse problems such as Tikhonov regularization.
