Part 1
Part 1 in this series shows some introduction to tensor theory and demonstrates it with the Cauchy stress tensor.
Different meanings of the term 'tensor'
This series talks about the term ‘tensor’ as used in physics and math. In the field of AI the term tensor was borrowed with a simplified meaning. In AI it simply means a multi-dimensional array. So for example the array “double a[4][6]” (4 by 6 matrix of doubles) is called a second-order tensor, but there’s no special relationship to vector spaces, as shown in the video.
