apllication of linear algebra in computer science?

Answer 1

Linear regressions are a simple direct method for comparing related things. In my profession it is used to compare things Like the weight of a fish to it's length, ie growth rate. I am sure if you search the computer literature you'd fine linear regression in computer science.

Answer 2

If you're doing anything with vectors mathematically, linear algebra is an efficient and powerful way to deal with that. And, the way computers go, any mathematics in a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional world involve vectors. 3D game programming is the most visible and obvious application, where linear algebra is used for all placement, rotation, scale, camera orientation, physics, collision, and even lots of coloring operations. Beyond that, again, anything having to deal with the physical world will probably use linear algebra in the computer application. Physics simulations, maybe stress testing, GPS data. Screensavers. Most of the math can be done by libraries for you (DirectX for 3D game programming deals with all of the matrix operations, you just have to worry about a few of them), but a good solid knowledge of the concepts of linear algebra will give you a greater ability to code efficient and powerful code.
