Convex Geometry
Affine dimension is a concept that refers to the dimension of an affine space, which is determined by the minimum number of vectors needed to span the space when considering translations rather than just linear combinations. It helps in understanding the geometric properties of sets, particularly in relation to convex hulls, as it defines how many coordinates are necessary to represent points in that space and indicates the complexity of the structure formed by those points.
congrats on reading the definition of affine dimension. now let's actually learn it.
