Notes are up from final group. Since we had some time pressure you might want to check the solutions that are online (for both 2015 and 2016 in fact) here.
Best of luck with the exams!
A list of possible exercises has been added to the schedule. If there is interest in any others, please contact me (Torkel).
See on the left. Note that these are from a different course with a different curriculum, so not all of these exercises will be relevant to you -- check with the curriculum for this course if something seems unfamiliar.
I saw how to clean up the approach a bit, so there are some differences to what we did in class, though the general strategy is the same.
On Friday we looked at implementing the Newton method, and I've posted it along with a translation in the notes (see the ipynb file for Jupyter/IPython and the m file for MATLAB). Note that both implementations have issues in terms of reusability and speed, but I didn't want to obscure the actual algorithm.
If you haven't tried the programming yet, a good exercise would be to adapt the code to instead use the direction of steepest descent, and changing the function in question. Try for example on the quadratic functions from exercise 4 and verify that the methods behave as expected.
The option for submitting the second compulsory assignment should now appear in Devilry.
I've been lax with uploading the most recent notes; sorry about that. They are all up now, as well as an image of the 20th degree Chebyshev polynomial, which has 10 global minima.
It's now available. Please submit your solutions using Devilry.
These are available under "answers_lecture4".
Thank you Alex.
