  I can’t express how amazing this video is. I have taught from a number of textbooks in different undergrad linear algebra classes, and I’ve never in my life seen an explanation of SVD as good as this one.

  I used to watch Prof. Strang&apos;s videos when I was a first year undergrad. Never thought I would revisit this during my master as I am learning about PCA... Time flies yet Prof. Strang is forever

  With all due respect, on which basis people did thumbs down this outstanding piece of algebra. If I had Profs. like Sir Gibert Strang at my early university years, I would&apos;ve reached far beyond my own expectations. Your teaching is outstandingly straightforward Sir.

  In such a short video, finally know the relation between PCA and SVD.

  thank you for showing that SVD is actually getting the different layers of the matrix out .. from the most important to the least important..

  No any other guys can teach algebra better than this Professor. He is the teacher&apos;s teacher, the best of the best. Respect!

  I have been trying to understand PCA all semester. I didn&apos;t realise that I would finally &apos;get&apos; it after watching this video on SVD. Thank you so much Dr Strang and MIT!

  The best linear algebra by all standards. He makes it look so simple. This explanation of SVD and PCA blew my mind. I salute you prof.
