  2. Linear multistep method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_multistep_method

    Single-step methods (such as Euler's method) refer to only one previous point and its derivative to determine the current value. Methods such as Runge–Kutta take some intermediate steps (for example, a half-step) to obtain a higher order method, but then discard all previous information before taking a second step. Multistep methods attempt ...

  3. VIKOR method - Wikipedia

    These strategies could be compromised by v = 0.5, and here v is modified as = (n + 1)/ 2n (from v + 0.5(n-1)/n = 1) since the criterion (1 of n) related to R is included in S, too. Step 4. Rank the alternatives, sorting by the values S, R and Q, from the minimum value. The results are three ranking lists. Step 5.

  4. Test functions for optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_functions_for...

    The artificial landscapes presented herein for single-objective optimization problems are taken from Bäck, [1] Haupt et al. [2] and from Rody Oldenhuis software. [3] Given the number of problems (55 in total), just a few are presented here. The test functions used to evaluate the algorithms for MOP were taken from Deb, [4] Binh et al. [5] and ...

  5. Assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_problem

    The assignment problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem. In its most general form, the problem is as follows: The problem instance has a number of agents and a number of tasks. Any agent can be assigned to perform any task, incurring some cost that may vary depending on the agent-task assignment.

  6. Five whys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_whys

    Five whys (or 5 whys) is an iterative interrogative technique used to explore the cause-and-effect relationships underlying a particular problem. [1] The primary goal of the technique is to determine the root cause of a defect or problem by repeating the question "why?" five times, each time directing the current "why" to the answer of the ...

  7. Pathfinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathfinding

    It is a generalization of pathfinding. Many multi-agent pathfinding algorithms are generalized from A*, or based on reduction to other well studied problems such as integer linear programming. [11] However, such algorithms are typically incomplete; in other words, not proven to produce a solution within polynomial time.

  8. Stepwise regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepwise_regression

    The main approaches for stepwise regression are: Forward selection, which involves starting with no variables in the model, testing the addition of each variable using a chosen model fit criterion, adding the variable (if any) whose inclusion gives the most statistically significant improvement of the fit, and repeating this process until none improves the model to a statistically significant ...

  9. List of NP-complete problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NP-complete_problems

    The problem for graphs is NP-complete if the edge lengths are assumed integers. The problem for points on the plane is NP-complete with the discretized Euclidean metric and rectilinear metric. The problem is known to be NP-hard with the (non-discretized) Euclidean metric. [3]: ND22, ND23
