Coursera's Linear Algebra course, offered by a provider on the platform, covering the core linear algebra material commenters point to as preparation for data mining and machine learning. Commenters describe it as the next step after Khan Academy's introductory lectures.
Commenters suggest taking it after Khan Academy's linear algebra lectures, and one says doing it first is enough preparation for the mathematics for machine learning material.

Linear Alg - if you do the Coursera course first you're fine. Calculus - I'd say you should at least do Calc1/2 on khan academy. Probability / Optimization - yeah you need to go read up first. I did harvard's stat110 and stanford's ee364. Both were overkill looking backwards but I had fun anyway:)
They assume some familiarity with linear algebra, if you haven't done any you might be best off learning some first. They don't use very much, basically no more than matrix addition and multiplication, and some eigenvector stuff (which you don't need to understand). The thing is you need to know…
