Topic outline

  • General

    Numerical matrix computations, Fall 2022, period I

    Prerequisites:

    MS-C1343 Linear Algebra (or other basic(+) knowledge of matrices).
    Basic knowledge of Matlab.

    The course can be passed by two methods:
    1. Exercises(60%) + course exam(40%)
    2. Extremely difficult, hope crushing exam only.

    Regardless of the exercise points, we require the students to get at least grade 1 (50 %) from the exam in order to pass.

    Course material is covered in the book "Trefethen, Bau: Numerical Linear Algebra" and the lecture notes.


    Practicalities

    During fall 2022 we experiment with teaching methods suitable to post-covid time. Namely, there will be one two hour lecture every week. Instead of the second lecture, Antti Hannukainen will give office hours. This is, you can come and ask about stuff related to the course. During exercise sessions we provide the possibility to work with the problems and ask questions. The lecture note contains video recordings on all covered topics. Homework is returned weekly + graded. 
    We start on 6.9. with a lecture. See you there!
