  2. Vector projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_projection

    The vector projection (also known as the vector component or vector resolution) of a vector a on (or onto) a nonzero vector b is the orthogonal projection of a onto a straight line parallel to b. The projection of a onto b is often written as proj b ⁡ a {\displaystyle \operatorname {proj} _{\mathbf {b} }\mathbf {a} } or a ∥ b .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_(linear_algebra)

    A square matrix is called a projection matrix if it is equal to its square, i.e. if =. [2]: p. 38 A square matrix is called an orthogonal projection matrix if = = for a real matrix, and respectively = = for a complex matrix, where denotes the transpose of and denotes the adjoint or Hermitian transpose of .

    The commutativity of this diagram is the universality of the projection π, for any map f and set X.. Generally, a mapping where the domain and codomain are the same set (or mathematical structure) is a projection if the mapping is idempotent, which means that a projection is equal to its composition with itself.

  5. Projections onto convex sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projections_onto_convex_sets

    In mathematics, projections onto convex sets (POCS), sometimes known as the alternating projection method, is a method to find a point in the intersection of two closed convex sets. It is a very simple algorithm and has been rediscovered many times. [ 1 ]

    Hermes Project: C++/Python library for rapid prototyping of space- and space-time adaptive hp-FEM solvers. IML++ is a C++ library for solving linear systems of equations, capable of dealing with dense, sparse, and distributed matrices. IT++ is a C++ library for linear algebra (matrices and vectors), signal processing and communications ...

  7. PARI/GP - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PARI/GP

    The name PARI is a pun about the project's early stages when the authors started to implement a library for "Pascal ARIthmetic" in the Pascal programming language (although they quickly switched to C), and after "pari de Pascal" (Pascal's Wager). [3] The first version of the gp calculator was originally called GPC, for Great Programmable ...

  8. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_from_a_point_to_a...

    The line with equation ax + by + c = 0 has slope -a/b, so any line perpendicular to it will have slope b/a (the negative reciprocal). Let (m, n) be the point of intersection of the line ax + by + c = 0 and the line perpendicular to it which passes through the point (x 0, y 0). The line through these two points is perpendicular to the original ...

  9. Homogeneous coordinates - Wikipedia

    The point is then mapped to a plane by finding the point of intersection of that plane and the line. This produces an accurate representation of how a three-dimensional object appears to the eye. In the simplest situation, the center of projection is the origin and points are mapped to the plane z = 1 {\displaystyle z=1} , working for the ...
