[@JonathanRiosRoman90]

AE501: Excellent refresher. Wished my professor in undergrad were as clear and concise as you!

[@carlydunford2546]

AE 501: Great review of unconstrained optimization

[@KennethWright-k2h]

AE501: Thank you for this review of 1D unconstrained optimization. This made it easier to extend the idea to higher dimensions.

[@Chuan-YuTsai]

AE501:The video is very clear and engaging, making it easy to follow along. I would definitely recommend this video to anyone who wants to learn more about optimization.

[@mattpierucci7647]

AE 501 - I've never had a course in optimization before so this was quite an interesting lecture. It's amazing how powerful eigenvalues can be. It seems like they're used in almost everything.

[@KarlaPkva]

AE501 - This was a great overview video for unconstrained optimization. I really appreciate the Optimization video series so far for being easily digestible as someone who didn't have Optimization courses in undergrad.

[@christopherkatende8808]

The lecture is educative. Thanks Christopher Katende

[@ahmedashmaig]

AE501: Very interesting lecture, and relatable to our AE598 seminar!

[@GiovanniRiggi-j2q]

AE 501 - Johnny Riggi: It is so interesting that the process learned in high school calculus for optimization, in some respects, is still applicable and can be seen in more complex optimization problems.

[@ryanmeinhardt81]

AE501 : Loved seeing the the callback to the taylor series and how the series can be used to find the optima with functions that look very similar to the simpler 1D cases. Also nice to see the callbacks to the previous weeks of class being brought forward (Eigen values, gradient vectors, etc).. like watching all the puzzle pieces fall into place

[@JulieWarchol]

AE 501: Optimization is a very interesting topic and full circle moment for our earlier studies of the Taylor series and eigenvalues! If only it was so easy to be unconstrained for real world applications.

[@timproby7624]

[AE 501] 33:35 The gradient = zero being analyous to the first order derivative being zero in the 1D is a help explanation toward understanding the gradient and what it is doing in terms of finding mins

[@LilanieAlfredaAbdur-Rahman]

AE501: Very clear explanation of this technique , just wish we had the example associated with a real scenario.

[@maggiesplantgirl]

AE 501: I can already tell this is going to be a very useful topic! -Maggie Shelton

[@ChristopherLum]

It’s definitely a very important topic for what we’ll be doing later.

[@keyshawnb4845]

AE 501: This was a great video on unconstrained optimization :)

[@ChaseSnow-w9f]

AE501: Great video and lecture notes. Thanks.

[@calebwatson6331]

AE501: Week10! Haven't covered this content before so pretty interesting

[@ainebyonaalex6430]

Its real educative and understandable Alex Ainebyona

[@aimeepak717]

AE501: The Hessian explanation helped me solve homework problem 3e. It's interesting how eigenvalues keep popping up. When I first learned of them, I didn't think they would be so useful.

[@enigma5627]

AE 501: Jesse Perez - This topic on optimization is new to me but it's well explained. Going from 1D explanation to multidimensional problems is explained very nicely and illustrates real world applications with eigenvalues we sometimes use as engineers but may overlook.

[@elijahleonen198]

AE501: It was really interesting learning and visualizing the saddle point. Great lecture!

[@hshams28]

AE501: @ Time Stamp 55:55 it seems like this does not necessarily decrease along the angle shown if you make a line from x1=2 and x2=2, not sure if its just the angle we are looking at, but I think here we are supposed to see that it decreases in all directions we move from 0?

[@jacobgivens2000]

AE501: I always wanted to learn about optimization. Sadly I never got a chance to learn about it in undergrad. I hope we get more exposure to it in my degree!

[@SaschaRobitzki]

@ChristopherLum Why did you write df^2/dx^2 instead of d^2f/dx^2 at 0:14:00?

[@AurashFilsoof]

AE 501: Thank you professor

[@atruon17uw]

[AE501] Listing all the definitions out made it clear to see the outcomes.

[@bsgove]

AE501 I'm glad we start with 1D examples because this very quickly becomes abstract. Visualizing extrema in 2D space makes sense, but in higher dimensions it is very hard and seems like you need to fall back on the written theory. I've never felt more like I'm in a math class, haha.

[@mourihoque4294]

You're such a good teacher :D

[@kkjj4937]

i hope this lecture would finished before winter break

[@edwardmau5877]

A E 501 Cool to see eigenvalues always pop up, my undergrad professors weren't exaggerating their importance.

[@HezekiahDdamulira]

Ddamulira Patrick Hezekiah, MPSE.....Hello, the video is insightful however, would you please share a hand worked example of the example at the end. I'd like to see how the stationary points were calculated.

[@SusanKavuma-s7g]

Well explained. Susan Kavuma

[@tranpham7120]

AE501 Cool to see eigenvalues always pop up

[@intertekpsi7498]

#AE501 12/11/12. This is Abram. I really like the review of why second derivate equaling zero is inconclusive. That was helpful to see.

[@mike_field]

Thank you for this great lecture

[@GloriaKisakye-kl8is]

Thank you for the video. however, i dont understand how you got the value of X*=-1, X*=0 and X*=2. These were used in the one dimension example. Thank you.

[@RajChhabraUW]

AE501: I found the idea of using the eigen values of the Hessian of f(x*) to find local minima/maxima interesting.

[@ssenketoronnie12]

Thanks for the lecture. Ronald Ssenketo

[@udayamanineaupane8398]

I am so sorry prof, but can you upload the video on how to find the transfer function of machine, to be precise the transfer function of dc machine. I really love the way you teach.

[@77377]

Excellent! Thank you!

[@CNsongs]

How do we know if the stationery point is a local max/min or a global max/minima? How do we distinguish between global and local?

[@ChristopherLum]
