This document provides an overview of lesson 12 on rank and solutions to systems of linear equations. It defines rank as the maximum number of linearly independent column vectors in a matrix and discusses how to compute rank using Gaussian elimination and minors. It also relates rank to the consistency and redundancy of systems of linear equations, noting that a system is consistent if the rank of the coefficient matrix equals the rank of the augmented matrix, and redundant or free variables exist if the ranks are less than the number of equations or variables respectively.
Matlab is basically a high level language which has many specialized toolboxes for making things easier for us.
Matlab stands for MATrix LABoratory.
The first version of MATLAB was produced in the mid 1970s as a teaching tool. MATLAB started as an interactive program for doing matrix calculations.
MATLAB has now grown to a high level mathematical language that can solve integrals and differential equations numerically and plot a wide variety of two and three Dimensional graphs.
The expanded MATLAB is now used for calculations and simulation in companies and government labs ranging from aerospace, car design, signal analysis through to instrument control and financial analysis.
In practice, it provides a very nice tool to implement numerical method.

Streamlining assessment, feedback, and archival with auto-multiple-choiceMatthew Leingang
Auto-multiple-choice (AMC) is an open-source optical mark recognition software package built with Perl, LaTeX, XML, and sqlite. I use it for all my in-class quizzes and exams. Unique papers are created for each student, fixed-response items are scored automatically, and free-response problems, after manual scoring, have marks recorded in the same process. In the first part of the talk I will discuss AMC’s many features and why I feel it’s ideal for a mathematics course. My contributions to the AMC workflow include some scripts designed to automate the process of returning scored papers
back to students electronically. AMC provides an email gateway, but I have written programs to return graded papers via the DAV protocol to student’s dropboxes on our (Sakai) learning management systems. I will also show how graded papers can be archived, with appropriate metadata tags, into an Evernote notebook.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

cn
A
c
⇐⇒ system has some free variables
⇐⇒ rref(A) has a column with no leading entry to it
4. Deciding linear independence
So

In
⇐⇒ A ∼
O
5. Relation to invertibility
Let A be an n × n matrix. If A has an inverse A−1 , the only
solution to Ac = 0 is the zero solution.
6. Relation to invertibility
Let A be an n × n matrix. If A has an inverse A−1 , the only
solution to Ac = 0 is the zero solution.
This means that there is no linear dependence relation among the
columns.
7. Relation to invertibility
Let A be an n × n matrix. If A has an inverse A−1 , the only
solution to Ac = 0 is the zero solution.
This means that there is no linear dependence relation among the
columns.
Fact
A is invertible if and only if the columns of A are linearly
independent,
8. Relation to invertibility
Let A be an n × n matrix. If A has an inverse A−1 , the only
solution to Ac = 0 is the zero solution.
This means that there is no linear dependence relation among the
columns.
Fact
A is invertible if and only if the columns of A are linearly
independent, if and only if rref(A) = I.
15. Example
Solve

0 1 −1 1
1 2 0 4
1 3 −2 4 00 00
The system is equivalent to x = 1 − z, y = 1 + z, where z is free.
17. Example
Solve

2x+4y −6z =1
3+6y −9z =1
Solution
Since
1 2 −3 1 1 2 −3 0
2 4 −6 1 0 0 0 1

there is no solution.
18. The rank
Definition
The rank of a matrix A, written r (A) is the maximum number of
linearly independent column vectors in A.
19. The rank
Definition
The rank of a matrix A, written r (A) is the maximum number of
linearly independent column vectors in A. If A is a zero matrix, we
say r (A) = 0.
20. Computing the rank by Gaussian Elimination
Fact
If A and B are row equivalent (we can get from one to another by
row operations), then r (A) = r (B).
21. Computing the rank by Gaussian Elimination
Fact
If A and B are row equivalent (we can get from one to another by
row operations), then r (A) = r (B).
So the rank of a matrix is equal to the rank of its RREF, which is
easy to calculate.
22. Example

24. Computing the rank by minors
Fact
The rank r (A) of a matrix is equal to the order of the largest
minor of A which has nonzero determinant.
25. Computing the rank by minors
Fact
The rank r (A) of a matrix is equal to the order of the largest
minor of A which has nonzero determinant.
This is not an obvious fact, nor is it easy to prove.
26. Rank and consistency
Fact
Let A be an m × n matrix, b an n × 1 vector, and Ab the matrix A
augmented by b.
27. Rank and consistency
Fact
Let A be an m × n matrix, b an n × 1 vector, and Ab the matrix A
augmented by b.
Then the system of linear equations Ax = b has a solution (is
consistent) if and only if r (A) = r (Ab ).
28. Rank and redundancy
Fact
Let A be an m × n matrix, b an n × 1 vector, and Ab the matrix A
augmented by b. Suppose that r (A) = r (Ab ) = k < m (m is the
number of equations in the system Ax = b).
29. Rank and redundancy
Fact
Let A be an m × n matrix, b an n × 1 vector, and Ab the matrix A
augmented by b. Suppose that r (A) = r (Ab ) = k < m (m is the
number of equations in the system Ax = b).
Then m − k of the equations are redundant; they can be removed
and the system has the same solutions.
30. Rank and redundancy
Fact
Let A be an m × n matrix, b an n × 1 vector, and Ab the matrix A
augmented by b. Suppose that r (A) = r (Ab ) = k < n (n is the
number of variables in the system Ax = b).
31. Rank and redundancy
Fact
Let A be an m × n matrix, b an n × 1 vector, and Ab the matrix A
augmented by b. Suppose that r (A) = r (Ab ) = k < n (n is the
number of variables in the system Ax = b).
Then n − k of the variables are free; they can be chosen at will and
the rest of the variables depend on them, getting infinitely many
solutions.
