Inverse Problems
The gradient is a vector that represents the rate and direction of change in a scalar field. It points in the direction of the steepest ascent of the function and its magnitude indicates how steep that ascent is. Understanding the gradient is essential in optimization methods, especially when searching for minimum or maximum values, making it a key concept in solving linear systems and non-linear equations.
