Introduction to Applied Mathematics
by Gilbert Strang
ISBN: 0-961-4088-04

Linear Algebra is used in numerous applications. These include systems and control theory, filtering, signal and image processing, data mining, etc. In this student seminar both the instructor and the students will prepare lectures on applications of their choice, typically using the textbook but other material may be used as well.

The course assumes a basic knowledge of linear algebra, including: matrix algebraic operations, solving linear equations, LU factorization, vector spaces, row/column space, null space, orthogonality, determinants and eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
