    Linear Transformations

    Definition

    A linear transformation is a function between vector spaces that preserves the operations of vector addition and scalar multiplication.

    Properties

    • Linearity: A function T: V → W is linear if it satisfies:
      • T(av) = aT(v) for any scalar a and vector v
      • T(v + w) = T(v) + T(w) for any vectors v and w
    • Additivity: T(v + w) = T(v) + T(w)
    • Homogeneity: T(av) = aT(v)

    Matrix Representation

    • A linear transformation can be represented by a matrix
    • If T: ℝⁿ → ℝᵐ is a linear transformation, then there exists an m x n matrix A such that:
      • T(v) = Av for any vector v in ℝⁿ

    Operations on Linear Transformations

    • Composition: The composition of two linear transformations is also a linear transformation
    • Inverse: If a linear transformation has an inverse, it is also a linear transformation
    • Scalar Multiplication: The scalar multiple of a linear transformation is also a linear transformation

    Types of Linear Transformations

    • Injection (One-to-One): A linear transformation that maps distinct inputs to distinct outputs
    • Surjection (Onto): A linear transformation that maps to every output in the codomain
    • Bijection (One-to-One Correspondence): A linear transformation that is both an injection and a surjection

    Applications in Data Science

    • Data Transformation: Linear transformations can be used to transform data from one space to another
    • Dimensionality Reduction: Linear transformations can be used to reduce the dimensionality of high-dimensional data
    • Feature Extraction: Linear transformations can be used to extract relevant features from data
