Basic operations and properties of tensors are exactly what is taught in linear algebra, in addition to (in my experience) more accessible proofs. More or less through singular value decomposition and/or least squares.
The core algorithms all build on top of each other. The `algebra` part of linear algebra refers to a `field`, but it might as well also be called arithmetic of tensors.
- shortrounddev2 3y agoRight but I mean that people say you need linear algebra (e.g: the whole textbook), when in actuality you might need the first 3 chapters
- tomrod 3y agoI think I didn't come across clearly. Eigenvalues, SVD, etc are important.
