Partial derivative - AshokBhat/ml GitHub Wiki

Description

  • A derivative in which all but one of the variables is considered a constant.
  • For example, the partial derivative of f(x, y) with respect to x is the derivative of f considered as a function of x alone (that is, keeping y constant).
  • The partial derivative of f with respect to x focuses only on how x is changing and ignores all other variables in the equation.
