See MoreSingular Value Decomposition (SVD): Dominant Correlations
This lectures discusses how the SVD captures dominant correlations in a matrix of data.
See MoreStability and Eigenvalues [Control Bootcamp]
Here we discuss the stability of a linear system (in continuous-time or discrete-time) in terms of eigenvalues. Later, we will actively modify these eigenvalues, and hence the dynamics...
