Score breakdown#

Category

Score

One-line note

Writing

7/10

Title case for title; sentence-case headings; some long paragraphs.

Math

2/10

Systemic ^\prime for transpose; \begin{matrix} blocks; ^T used for transpose too.

Code

N/A

no executable code cells

JAX

N/A

not a JAX lecture

Figures

N/A

no figures

References

7/10

9 {cite}; three narrative refs would benefit from {cite:t} (e.g. “Anderson and Moore (1979)”).

Links

8/10

4 {doc} references; no raw cross-series URLs.

Admonitions

7/10

2 gated exercises but no solutions (lecture says “this lecture has no solutions”).

Issues#

Critical#

None found.

High severity#

  • [qe-math-002] — ^\prime used as transpose throughout. Example: lectures/classical_filtering.md:77, :113, :119, :129, :408, :429, :430, :990; also L^T at L476. Count: ~15 occurrences.

  • [qe-math-003] — \begin{matrix} used instead of \begin{bmatrix}. Example: lectures/classical_filtering.md:371, :444, :461, :484, :491. Count: 5 occurrences.

Medium severity#

  • [qe-writing-006] — Title “Classical Prediction and Filtering With Linear Algebra” uses capitalised “With” — inconsistent with sister lecture lu_tricks “Classical Control with Linear Algebra”.

  • [qe-ref-001] — Three narrative author references could use {cite:t}.

Low severity#

  • [qe-writing-001] — Some longer paragraphs.

Strengths#

  • \mathbb{E} used for expectation (qe-math-010, proposed).

  • Equation labels and {eq} references (qe-math-007).

  • Subheadings in sentence case (qe-writing-006).

  • Exercises gated (qe-admon-001).

  • {doc} used for cross-series references (qe-link-002).
