One of the nice things about twitter, when you follow awesome people, is that you will come across tweets that will just blow your mind. Last week is just one such week with some fantastic and funniest tweetorials. One of the tweetorials was from Prof. Daniela Witten for @WomenInStat. And it starts like this and… Continue reading SVD: One Matrix Decomposition to Rule Them All

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) in Python
Matrix decomposition by Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is one of the widely used methods for dimensionality reduction. For example, Principal Component Analysis often uses SVD under the hood to compute principal components. In this post, we will work through an example of doing SVD in Python. We will use gapminder data in wide form to… Continue reading Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) in Python
