Matlab...! Supervised Learning
find f that maps {x1
(j),...,xD (j)} → y(j)
Interpolation
f goes through the data points
linear regression
lossy fit, minimizes 'vertical' SSE
Unsupervised Learning
PCA We just have data points {x1
(j),...,xD (j)}
x2 x1
u=(u1,u2)
Finding derivatives or primitives of a function f not always easy or possible....
no closed form solution exists the solution is a very complex expression that is hard to
we may not know f (as before!)
If we want to know the rate of change... E.g.:
fluid in a cylinder with a hole in the bottom, measured
High-speed camera images of animal movements,
(jumping in frogs and insects, suction feeding in fish, and the strikes of mantis shrimp)
determine speed and acceleration
