A sum-product number in a given number base is a natural number that is equal to the product of the sum of its digits and the product of its digits. There are a finite number of sum-product numbers in any given base . In base 10, there are exactly four sum-product numbers (sequence A038369 in the OEIS): 0, 1, 135, and 144.
Belief propagation. Belief propagation, also known as sum–product message passing, is a message-passing algorithm for performing inference on graphical models, such as Bayesian networks and Markov random fields. It calculates the marginal distribution for each unobserved node (or variable), conditional on any observed nodes (or variables).
In arithmetic combinatorics, the Erdős–Szemerédi theorem states that for every finite set of integers, at least one of , the set of pairwise sums or , the set of pairwise products form a significantly larger set. More precisely, the Erdős–Szemerédi theorem states that there exist positive constants c and such that for any non-empty set.
Sum and Product Puzzle. The Sum and Product Puzzle, also known as the Impossible Puzzle because it seems to lack sufficient information for a solution, is a logic puzzle. It was first published in 1969 by Hans Freudenthal, [1][2] and the name Impossible Puzzle was coined by Martin Gardner. [3] The puzzle is solvable, though not easily.
Rule of product. The elements of the set {A, B} can combine with the elements of the set {1, 2, 3} in six different ways. In combinatorics, the rule of product or multiplication principle is a basic counting principle (a.k.a. the fundamental principle of counting). Stated simply, it is the intuitive idea that if there are a ways of doing ...
Canonical normal form. In Boolean algebra, any Boolean function can be expressed in the canonical disjunctive normal form (CDNF), [1] minterm canonical form, or Sum of Products (SoP or SOP) as a disjunction (OR) of minterms. The De Morgan dual is the canonical conjunctive normal form (CCNF), maxterm canonical form, or Product of Sums (PoS or ...
Factor graph. A factor graph is a bipartite graph representing the factorization of a function. In probability theory and its applications, factor graphs are used to represent factorization of a probability distribution function, enabling efficient computations, such as the computation of marginal distributions through the sum–product algorithm.
Infinite product. In mathematics, for a sequence of complex numbers a1, a2, a3, ... the infinite product. is defined to be the limit of the partial products a1a2... an as n increases without bound. The product is said to converge when the limit exists and is not zero. Otherwise the product is said to diverge.
