Linear Algebra (18.06SC)
A university-level linear algebra course covering vector spaces, matrices, linear systems, eigenvalues, and related topics.
Visual explanations of vectors, transformations, matrix multiplication, eigenvectors, and the intuition behind linear algebra.
Grant Sanderson's renowned visual series transforms linear algebra from dry grid arithmetic into vivid geometric intuition. By animating basis vectors, linear transformations, determinants, dot products, change of basis, and eigenvectors, this series makes the geometry of neural network weight matrices and attention projections click immediately.
