  2. Backtracking line search - Wikipedia

    However, this condition is not sufficient on its own to ensure that the step size is nearly optimal, since any value of that is sufficiently small will satisfy the condition. Thus, the backtracking line search strategy starts with a relatively large step size, and repeatedly shrinks it by a factor τ ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) {\displaystyle \tau \,\in \,(0 ...

  3. Cryptographic hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function

    The sender is required to find a message whose hash value begins with a number of zero bits. The average work that the sender needs to perform in order to find a valid message is exponential in the number of zero bits required in the hash value, while the recipient can verify the validity of the message by executing a single hash function.

  4. Hashcash - Wikipedia

    The number of times that the sender needs to try to get a valid hash value is modeled by geometric distribution. Hence the sender will on average have to try 2 20 values to find a valid header. Given reasonable estimates of the time needed to compute the hash, this would take about one second to find.

  6. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    It is easy to find situations for which Newton's method oscillates endlessly between two distinct values. For example, for Newton's method as applied to a function f to oscillate between 0 and 1, it is only necessary that the tangent line to f at 0 intersects the x-axis at 1 and that the tangent line to f at 1 intersects the x-axis at 0.

  7. Method of moments (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_moments_(statistics)

    In statistics, the method of moments is a method of estimation of population parameters.The same principle is used to derive higher moments like skewness and kurtosis. It starts by expressing the population moments (i.e., the expected values of powers of the random variable under consideration) as functions of the parameters of interest.
