This is an article providing another perspective on understanding Lagrangian and dual problem. These two topics are essential to convex and non-convex optimization. Since it is a blog post, the proper background to understand this article is kept rather low. If you need to brush up on convex...
Numpy Array overrides many operations, so deciphering them could be uneasy. Here are a collection of what I would consider tricky/handy moments from Numpy.
The == in Numpy, when applied to two collections mean element-wise comparison, and the returned result is an...
When you work with Numpy, you work with multidimensional arrays (or tensors). I have to admit such concept was not too easy for me to grasp in the beginning, but after some delibration, it became relatively easy. This post uses the term tensor/multidimensional array interchangeably.
for a tensor of shape...
