Surfaces of n-dimensional ellipsoids – I – quadratic form and matrix equation

Multidimensional ellipsoids are mathematically interesting figures per se. But there is a reason why they sometimes also appear in the context of Machine Learning experiments. One reason is that Multivariate Normal Distributions [MND] often describe the statistical distributions of properties which characterize natural objects we investigate by ML-methods. And the locations of constant probability density of MNDs are surfaces of… Read More »Surfaces of n-dimensional ellipsoids – I – quadratic form and matrix equation
