Course description: This course aims to provide the students with mathematical optimization useful for graduate level thesis and projects. The course starts with a review of Linear Algebra including properties and operations on vectors and matrices, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. It then switches to recognition and formulation of convex optimization problems; most commonly used decision making problems in the field of Electrical Engineering. Text books: - Edwin K. P.
