  2. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    The numbers a, b, and c are the coefficients of the equation and may be distinguished by respectively calling them, the quadratic coefficient, the linear coefficient and the constant coefficient or free term. [2] The values of x that satisfy the equation are called solutions of the equation, and roots or zeros of the quadratic function on its ...

  3. Quadratic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_function

    In mathematics, a quadratic function of a single variable is a function of the form [1] = + +,,where ⁠ ⁠ is its variable, and ⁠ ⁠, ⁠ ⁠, and ⁠ ⁠ are coefficients.The expression ⁠ + + ⁠, especially when treated as an object in itself rather than as a function, is a quadratic polynomial, a polynomial of degree two.

  4. Least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_squares

    The result of fitting a set of data points with a quadratic function Conic fitting a set of points using least-squares approximation. In regression analysis, least squares is a parameter estimation method based on minimizing the sum of the squares of the residuals (a residual being the difference between an observed value and the fitted value provided by a model) made in the results of each ...

  5. Polynomial regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_regression

    Polynomial regression models are usually fit using the method of least squares.The least-squares method minimizes the variance of the unbiased estimators of the coefficients, under the conditions of the Gauss–Markov theorem.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations

    Maxwell's equations on a plaque on his statue in Edinburgh. Maxwell's equations, or Maxwell–Heaviside equations, are a set of coupled partial differential equations that, together with the Lorentz force law, form the foundation of classical electromagnetism, classical optics, electric and magnetic circuits.

  8. Linear–quadratic regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear–quadratic_regulator

    The theory of optimal control is concerned with operating a dynamic system at minimum cost. The case where the system dynamics are described by a set of linear differential equations and the cost is described by a quadratic function is called the LQ problem.

  9. Differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_equation

    In mathematics, a differential equation is an equation that relates one or more unknown functions and their derivatives. [1] In applications, the functions generally represent physical quantities, the derivatives represent their rates of change, and the differential equation defines a relationship between the two.
