Linear Algebra and Probability for Computer Science Applications

By Ernest Davis

Book Overview

Assuming as little mathematical background as possible, this classroom-tested text focuses on mathematical techniques that are most relevant to computer scientists. It covers applications from computer graphics, web search, machine learning, cryptography, and a host of other computer science areas. After an introductory chapter on MATLAB(R), the text is divided into two sections, with the first focusing on linear algebra and the second discussing probability. MATLAB functions, MATLAB programming assignments, and problems are included in each chapter. MATLAB code is available on the author's website.
