The Gram-Schmidt Process

The video tutorial explains the Gram-Schmidt Process, a method to convert a set of vectors into an orthogonal or orthonormal basis. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by a detailed explanation of the process steps. An example is provided using vectors in R3 to demonstrate the calculations involved. Finally, the tutorial shows how to convert the orthogonal basis into an orthonormal basis, emphasizing the importance of this process in various vector spaces.
