Could the multiplication of matrix X (with dimensions [d+1 x N]) and its transpose simplify to a matrix with...
$begingroup$
In a machine learning course I'm taking, one of the lectures deals with matrix multiplication.
Could anyone explain why the dot product of these two matrices would "shrink" to [d+1 x d+1] dimensions instead of being [N x N] dimensions? Thank you.

When you perform matrix multiplication, order matters. Here, when you multiply these two matrices, the final matrix will have rows corresponding to the first matrix (so in your case, $d + 1$) and columns corresponding to the second matrix $(d + 1)$. Now, if it were instead $(mathbf{X}^T)(mathbf{X})$, then the opposite would be true: since $mathbf{X}^T$ has $N$ rows and $mathbf{X}$ has $N$ columns, the matrix multiplication would lead to a matrix with $N times N$ dimensions.
