Programming with Linear Algebra: Hello World (by Dragan Djuric)

Dragan Djuric introduces linear algebra concepts for programmers and demonstrates how to use them practically in Clojure.

Title: Programming with Linear Algebra: Hello World Speaker: Dragan Djuric Dragan Djuric - dragan.rocks/ will be presenting: "Programming with Linear Algebra: Hello World" Kick-starting the understanding of an unfamiliar topic might be the steepest point in any programming journey. Following the recent AI boom, you might be hearing about matrices and tensors left and right, you probably even know some basics from your math education, but you simply can’t see how to use that in daily programming, in tasks that are not straight out of sci-fi. You might even have tried some software libraries, but haven’t progressed beyond using them as fancy arrays. Here, we'll help you take that first step right away, and - if you take it - show you a path that can lead you quite further. Dragan has been using Clojure for 15 years for fun and profit, and has been teaching programming and AI at university for even longer. He loves learning new topics, and finding a way how to make them work in practice. Loves teaching even more. The author of a few nice Clojure libraries (github.com/uncomplicate) and a fer Clojure books (aiprobook.com).
