Study Notes

Mathematics Concepts

  • A partial derivative measures how a function changes as one variable changes while keeping other variables constant.
  • The Hessian matrix is a square matrix of second-order partial derivatives of a function, representing local curvature and indicating the function's concavity or convexity.
  • The gradient of a function is a vector that contains all its first-order partial derivatives, pointing in the direction of the steepest ascent.
