Andrew Ng机器学习笔记week1 线性回归

第一周主要是对机器学习进行简单的介绍和线性回归的知识点：

一、Introduction

machine learning的举例

machine learning定义和例题

machine learning分类
- Supervised learning

right answer given，有标记的
1.regression：continuous（house price prediction）
2.classification：discrete（breast cancer:malignant or benign)

-Unsupervised learning

无标记的，we’re not told what to do with and what each point is.
cluster
①Organize computing clusters
②Social network analysis
③Market segmentation
④Astronomical data analysis

例：Cocktail party problem （鸡尾酒会问题）：
separate out these two audio sources that were being added or being summed together to form other recordings.
[W,s,v] = svd((repmat(sum(x.*x,1),size(x,1),1).*x)*x’);

-Reinforcement learning（强化学习）
- recommender systems（推荐系统）

二、Linear regression with one variable

1.Model representation

2.Cost function

代价函数计算的主要代码块：
h=X*theta;
sqr=(h-y).^2;
J=sum(sqr)/(2*m);

3.Gradient descent

4.Gradient descent for linear regression

梯度下降中theta计算的代码块：
h=X*theta;
error=h-y;
delta=X’*error/m;
theta=theta-alpha*delta;

三、Linear Algebra review

矩阵、向量的转置、相乘等线性代数的知识点回顾
