Lecture 1 | Convex Optimization I (Stanford)

Professor Stephen Boyd, of the Stanford University Electrical Engineering department, gives the introductory lecture for the course, Convex Optimization I (EE 364A).

Convex Optimization I concentrates on recognizing and solving convex optimization problems that arise in engineering. Convex sets, functions, and optimization problems. Basics of convex analysis. Least-squares, linear and quadratic programs, semidefinite programming, minimax, extremal volume, and other problems. Optimality conditions, duality theory, theorems of alternative, and applications. Interior-point methods. Applications to signal processing, control, digital and analog circuit design, computational geometry, statistics, and mechanical engineering.

yes-no coming to class.

colleges sell Admit ticket to class. seats in a lecture hall.

digital colleges can be seen by billions billions. anytime anywhere.

instead of 100-200 people, we can now have 1-3 billion people see the lecture. worldwide
