AE 501 I love it when you use humor in your videos when teaching your topics (not just in this video). It makes it more memorable, especially when the videos get an hour+ in length. 33:18 The comment about the dwarf in snow white got a genuine laugh out of me.
This the best video I have seen about an introduction to optimzation !! Clear and concise !! Now I can peacefully explain this to someone who is in need !!

I've only watched the first 6 minutes. I'm a budding self-improvement content creator and after wrecking my brain trying to narrow my niche, I landed on, "optimization." I did a little market research to see what type of content was already out there and it led me here. The first six minutes were great from a personal growth perspective. Thanks!
AE501: By far the best video of the quarter, loved the humor and the Gus cameo! My family is from Bainbriedge too so I understand the commute challenge. Great information on how to more specifically think of optomization
What a small world, we should chat about this in the future. I've got more videos discussing Bainbridge and optimization. If you take the AE511 class we'll look at some of these.
Zafer, I have several other videos in the series on the playlist already. I hope to have the next video on unconstrained optimization out next Monday, I hope to see you there, thanks for watching!
AE501 : very helpful introduction to optimization, having not been very formally familiarized with it in the past. Found the 'baked goods' example helpful with how constraints reduce the possible area of solutions.
AE501: This is the first time I am learning about optimization, so I was a little lost in the beginning, but the Seattle commute example really helped me conceptualize the goal of optimization (so did the example with the star of the video, Gus). Thanks for the lecture!
AE501 - I hope Gus got that second slice of pizza after the camera cut! Also I liked the example of optimization in baking. I've been using Baker's Percentages for a while now and just made the connection that it's a tangible (and edible) application of optimization thanks to this video.
AE501: It helped me solidify my understanding of the concepts and practice applying optimization. It have the connection with the AE598 this quarter. Thank you.

AE 501 - Helpful intro to optimization. Like you said basically my entire engineering job involves optimizing solutions so I'm interested to see where this leads us over the last week of the quarter.
AE501: This is a great introduction to the concepts and nomenclature. We may need a longer video for Gus to reveal his cost function..It's interesting to think about how the risk and lack of data might be handled in an open loop system

AE501: 5:10 As a fellow dog owner, this made me laugh! I know for sure my dog would be going for the pizza straight away, her brain must be optimized to go for pizza 100% of the time! But overall great video, as someone who wishes to go down the controls path in the future optimization is a huge concept in control theory and something definitely that interests me. Thanks!
Great work on explaining these concepts of optimization! In addition, will you address the scope of optimization (basically differences between local optimization and global optimization) in a future video?
Thank you so much for the videos and amazing explanation, I am making a goal to buy a tee from your shop once i finish this playlist as a reward to myself

Dear Professor Lum good to see you again,after a long time,One kind suggestion please inclucde "MATLAB - based tutorial more" also,very excited to see some "Trajectory tracking based control design with MATLAB tutorial (by trajectory tracking i mean to follow some custom based trajectory (and importantly how we make trajectory from way-point concept and repeat them over the whole simation time) I hope i have put my query correctly.. Best wishes Thank you

AE 501 Thanks for the video professor, I can tell a lot of thought and effort when into it. Some feedback I have is maybe the video could have been shorter or more concise (in my opinion, the topic was not too difficult to understand). However, I understand that this is an introduction video and it's important to make sure everyone has a solid base to build on for future and more complex topics. Anyways, great video again, and just giving my opinion because I believe you appreciate feedback.
Edward, thanks for the valuable feedback. Yes, I do indeed welcome any pointers about how to make future videos better and your advice has been noted, thanks for taking the time to write it down.
Have I missed something? He draws the constraint x1≤0.75 on the 1.75 x ? Also, why is the x2 constraint on the ordinate ? Isn't it supposed to be on the abscissa or described as the y constraint? Otherwise , well done presentation on the math optimization. Optimization is subjective. That is very important to understand from this .

Austin,
I'm glad you enjoyed it, I always find math more enjoyable if I can relate it to something fun.
He is a one of the most influential instructors in all of the world… thank you professor!
Maybe not influential but one of the best... I have watched many lectures but his voice is loud and clear... Most of other ones look like mumbling...
This the best video I have seen about an introduction to optimzation !! Clear and concise !! Now I can peacefully explain this to someone who is in need !!

A great video on introduction to optimization, I can understand it clearly. Thanks, Professor.
AE 501: This was a great introduction to optimization. I loved the use of real world examples to gain a deeper understanding of this topic.
AE501: love the example with Gus! Optimization seems like such a useful concept. Excited to learn more about it.
AE501: I absolutely appreciate the fact that you bring real life events into your videos to help explain mathematical concepts. It really helps!
It is great to hear that you find the real-world examples helpful!

@@ChristopherLum Noted, I'll keep that in mind
AE501 - Johnny Riggi. A simple and easily digestible intro to optimization. The commuting example greatly increased my comprehension of the material!
wow! i've been trying to understand some papers on optimization and writing some code for a few months, this came at just the right time!
AE501: For Ex. 3, you drew the x1
AE501: Thanks professor, as someone who has not had a lot of exposure to optimization before, this video helped demystify it for me!
Wonderful! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the series. Loved your co-star.

AE 501: I appreciated the real life examples you brought to explain optimization! Farouk Nejah
AE501: I can see why you’re so excited about this topic! Love Gus and especially the commute example. Very understandable. Thanks
AE501: After watching this video I am going to mathematically optimize my entire life. Thank you Prof. Lum.
AE501: Always love seeing Gus get involved! Thank you professor for the great examples and the detailed introduction to optimization!
AE 501 Great Prof with very important optimization lessons
AE501: It helped me solidify my understanding of the concepts and practice applying optimization. It have the connection with the AE598 this quarter. Thank you.
The best explanation I have come across so far hats off.

The real life example of commuting to your work definitely helped understanding optimization conceptually. Great video!
AE501: This is a very interesting concept. Nice job introducing applications of optimization!
Glad you like it!
I found THE channel! Finally!!! Keep up the great work Prof.!

AE501: Again, another fun and very clever experiment. We can easily relate to the concepts of optimization or function model.
AE501: Forgot to comment* (This was a great video and it really started making stuff from AE501 which is going over optimization click!)
AE501: Love the special celebrity Gus appearances, I bet he enjoys getting paid in pizza. -Maggie Shelton
AE501: 5:10 As a fellow dog owner, this made me laugh! I know for sure my dog would be going for the pizza straight away, her brain must be optimized to go for pizza 100% of the time! But overall great video, as someone who wishes to go down the controls path in the future optimization is a huge concept in control theory and something definitely that interests me. Thanks!
Yep, dogs love pizza!
AE501: This is a very interesting concept.
AE501 - Appreciated the examples used to introduce the concept of optimization
Great work on explaining these concepts of optimization! In addition, will you address the scope of optimization (basically differences between local optimization and global optimization) in a future video?
AE501: Poor pup. Thanks for the demonstration.
AE501: I loved the dog example and the various commute methods example
Thank you so much for the videos and amazing explanation, I am making a goal to buy a tee from your shop once i finish this playlist as a reward to myself
Thanks for watching. Let me know when you get close to completion as it has been on my list to get a few new T-shirt designs uploaded.
I SURE WILL, THANKS AGAIN!@@ChristopherLum
AE501: The real world example of the ferry was very helpful!
AE501: loved the example with Gus!
Amazing video as usual!
Thank you for a great video. I plan to watch the whole series!

AE 501 Nice introduction video, love the dog example
AE501: A great intro to optimization
You're really a perfect teacher!! I wish I could have found you earlier🙂
Awesome!! Really excited to see this
Look for a shout out to you near the end of the video @ 57:20 😀. Thanks for supporting the channel!
AE501: Great video, thanks for posting.
AE501- Good understanding of initial optimization introduction and how it will be used in future studies.
Dear Professor Lum good to see you again,after a long time,One kind suggestion please inclucde "MATLAB - based tutorial more" also,very excited to see some "Trajectory tracking based control design with MATLAB tutorial (by trajectory tracking i mean to follow some custom based trajectory (and importantly how we make trajectory from way-point concept and repeat them over the whole simation time) I hope i have put my query correctly..

AE 501: I had no interest in optimization but you introduced the topic and made it seem fun and exciting!
Sunny, great, I'm glad it was exciting!
thank you for the excellent explanation
#AE501 First time learning optimization. This is such a good introduction video. Thank you for the excellent explanation.
AE 501

AE501: Great video thank you!
Would this help in learning optimal control theory?
Excellent explanation.
Sir, can you please cover Sequential Quadratic Programming algorithm?
Have I missed something? He draws the constraint x1≤0.75 on the 1.75 x ? Also, why is the x2 constraint on the ordinate ? Isn't it supposed to be on the abscissa or described as the y constraint? Otherwise , well done presentation on the math optimization. Optimization is subjective. That is very important to understand from this .
Thanks for catching this, the x1 < 0.75 constraint was indeed drawn incorrectly on the board. The x2 constraints are correct. Thanks for watching!
AE501: always love some Gus content
Thank you
First of all thank you very much sir for the great video, can you please do another one about descrete optimization?
nice!
AE501: I sure hope she got the second pizza slice !
Nice video

What if they were Lucky Charms 😊?
I believe fruit loops are superior to lucky charms 😉
