  2. Characteristic function (probability theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_function...

    For example, some authors [6] define φ X (t) = E[e −2πitX], which is essentially a change of parameter. Other notation may be encountered in the literature: p ^ {\displaystyle \scriptstyle {\hat {p}}} as the characteristic function for a probability measure p , or f ^ {\displaystyle \scriptstyle {\hat {f}}} as the characteristic function ...

  3. Multiplicative weight update method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_Weight...

    The multiplicative weights algorithm is also widely applied in computational geometry, [1] such as Clarkson's algorithm for linear programming (LP) with a bounded number of variables in linear time. [4] [5] Later, Bronnimann and Goodrich employed analogous methods to find Set Covers for hypergraphs with small VC dimension. [6] Gradient descent ...

  4. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    One such complicating feature is the relation between the viscosity model for a pure fluid and the model for a fluid mixture which is called mixing rules. When scientists and engineers use new arguments or theories to develop a new viscosity model, instead of improving the reigning model, it may lead to the first model in a new class of models.

  5. Joint probability distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_probability_distribution

    If the points in the joint probability distribution of X and Y that receive positive probability tend to fall along a line of positive (or negative) slope, ρ XY is near +1 (or −1). If ρ XY equals +1 or −1, it can be shown that the points in the joint probability distribution that receive positive probability fall exactly along a straight ...

  6. Multiplier (Fourier analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplier_(Fourier_analysis)

    It can be shown that the Hilbert transform is a multiplier operator whose multiplier is given by the () = ⁡ (), where sgn is the signum function. Finally another important example of a multiplier is the characteristic function of the unit cube in R n {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{n}} which arises in the study of "partial sums" for the Fourier ...

  7. Independent component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_component_analysis

    In the sum, given an observed signal mixture , the corresponding set of extracted signals and source signal model = ′, we can find the optimal unmixing matrix , and make the extracted signals independent and non-gaussian. Like the projection pursuit situation, we can use gradient descent method to find the optimal solution of the unmixing matrix.

  8. Knapsack problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knapsack_problem

    [1] The subset sum problem is a special case of the decision and 0-1 problems where each kind of item, the weight equals the value: =. In the field of cryptography, the term knapsack problem is often used to refer specifically to the subset sum problem. The subset sum problem is one of Karp's 21 NP-complete problems.

  9. Recurrence relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation

    In mathematics, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter that is independent of ; this number is called the order of the relation.
