Vector Space in Data Science

Understand how vector spaces form the foundation for representing data points and parameters in data science. Learn how feature vectors correspond to real-world data like images and how parameter spaces influence model training, especially within linear regression and machine learning pipelines.

From abstract to real vector space

All data (text, images, videos, sound) is made up of data points or samples, which can be represented as column vectors having dd real numbers. That said, we already know that all d-dimensional vectors compose the Rd\R^d vector space over the field R\R. So, we can say that Rd\R^d is the most popular vector space used in data science because all data is represented using vectors that span Rd\R^d. Here, dd represents the dimension of the vector space, Rd\R^d ...
