Matrix Calculus: Derivation and Simple Application HU, Pili∗ March 30, 2012† Abstract Matrix Calculus[3] is a very useful tool in many engineering prob- lems. Basic rules of matrix calculus are nothing more than ordinary calculus rules covered in undergraduate courses. However, using ma- trix calculus, the derivation process is more compact. This document is adapted from the notes of a course the author recently attends. It builds matrix calculus from scratch. Only prerequisites are basic cal- culus notions and linear algebra operation.

Matlab cheat sheet for Calculus - Pedro Fortuny Ayuso - Uniovi - September 23, 2013 Basics If A is a matrix [a:s:b] — Vector from a to b in steps of length s. A(m,n) — Element m,n of A. linspace(a,b,n) — Vector of n equidistributed elements from a to b. A(a:b,c:d) — Submatrix from row a to row b and from col. c to col. d of A. pi, exp(1) — Values of π and e (3.14159..., 2.71828...). A(a,:), A(:,b) — The whole row a or the whole column b ...
