Calculus

For this course you need to review some basic calculus. The best resource for it is Khan Academy’s Multivariate Calculus. Go through the videos and exercises in Units 1 and 2 only.

For more advanced reader, and specifically for fully understanding deep learning that includes matrix calculus there is a very good reference here.

We have also shot a recitation video for you to review some of the concepts.

Calculus recitation for my classes. Recitation was delivered by my TA Pritam Sen.
