๐Ÿ“– Forward Stepwise Selection Start with null model, then repeatedly add the predictor that provides the greatest additional improvement to the fit, until all predictors are in the model. From: Intro to Statistical Learning Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“ Sample Theorem If $A \\subseteq B$ and $B \\subseteq A$, then $A = B$ Proof: Let $x \\in A$. Since $A \\subseteq B$, we have $x \\in B$ by definition of subset. Therefore, every element of $A$ is in $B$. Now, let $y \\in B$. Since $B \\subseteq A$, we have $y \\in A$ by definition. Therefore, every element of $B$ is in $A$. Since $A \\subseteq B$ and $B \\subseteq A... From: only-the-strong-survive Learn more: Explore all courses:

๐Ÿ“ Rank-Nullity Theorem (Dimension Theorem) If $V$ is finite-dimensional, then $T(V)$ is also finite-dimensional, and: $\\dim N(T) + \\dim T(V) = \\dim V$. In other words, the nullity plus the rank of a linear transformation equals the dimension of its domain. Proof: Let $n = \\dim V$ and let $e_1, \\ldots, e_k$ be a basis for $N(T)$ where $k = \\dim N(T)$. By Theorem 1.7, these are part of some basis for $V$: $e_1, \\ldots, e_k, e_{k+1}, \\ldots, e_n$ where $k + r = n$. We show that $T(e_{k+1}), \\ldots, T(e_n)$ form a basis for $T(V)$, proving $\\dim T(V) =... From: calc2-course Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“ Kernel and Image are Subspaces For any linear transformation $T: V \\to W$, $\\ker(T)$ is a subspace of $V$ and $\\text{im}(T)$ is a subspace of $W$. Proof: **Kernel:** - $T(\\mathbf{0}) = \\mathbf{0}$, so $\\mathbf{0} \\in \\ker(T)$. - If $u, v \\in \\ker(T)$, then $T(u + v) = T(u) + T(v) = \\mathbf{0}$, so $u + v \\in \\ker(T)$. - If $u \\in \\ker(T)$ and $c \\in F$, then $T(cu) = cT(u) = c \\cdot \\mathbf{0} = \\mathbf{0}$, so $cu \\in \\ker(T)$....

๐Ÿ“– Equivalence Relation An \\textbf{equivalence relation} on a set $A$ is a relation $\\sim$ satisfying: (1) \\textbf{Reflexive:} $a \\sim a$ for all $a \\in A$; (2) \\textbf{Symmetric:} $a \\sim b$ implies $b \\sim a$; (3) \\textbf{Transitive:} $a \\sim b$ and $b \\sim c$ implies $a \\sim c$.

๐Ÿ“– Definition 9.4.1 (Continuity at a Point) Let $X \\subseteq \\mathbb{R}$, $f : X \\to \\mathbb{R}$, and $x_0 \\in X$. We say $f$ is **continuous at $x_0$** iff for every $\\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $\\delta > 0$ such that $|f(x) - f(x_0)| \\leq \\varepsilon$ whenever $|x - x_0| < \\delta$ and $x \\in X$.

Therefore, every element of $A$ is in $B$. Now, let $y \\in B$. Since $B \\subseteq A$, we have $y \\in A$ by definition. Therefore, every element of $B$ is in $A$.

๐Ÿ’ก Proposition 4.4.4 (No Rational Square Root of 2) There does not exist a rational $x$ such that $x^2 = 2$. Proof: Suppose for contradiction that $x^2 = 2$ for some rational $x = p/q$ in lowest terms. Then $p^2 = 2q^2$, so $p^2$ is even, hence $p$ is even. Write $p = 2k$. Then $4k^2 = 2q^2$, so $q^2 = 2k^2$, meaning $q$ is also even. But this contradicts $p/q$ being in lowest terms. โˆŽ From: tao-analysis-1 Learn more: Explore all courses:
