This lecture introduces Manopt, a toolbox for optimization on manifolds. It covers topics such as checking gradients and Hessians, calling solvers, and ways to define cost, gradient, and Hessian functions. The lecture also discusses the use of counters during optimization and the importance of manual caching for efficient computation.
