  2. Beam search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_search

    Only those states are expanded next. The greater the beam width, the fewer states are pruned. With an infinite beam width, no states are pruned and beam search is identical to best-first search. [3] Conversely, a beam width of 1 corresponds to a hill-climbing algorithm. [3] The beam width bounds the memory required to perform the search.

  3. Beam propagation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_propagation_method

    Both spatial domain methods, and frequency (spectral) domain methods are available for the numerical solution of the discretized master equation. Upon discretization into a grid, (using various centralized difference, Crank–Nicolson method, FFT-BPM etc.) and field values rearranged in a causal fashion, the field evolution is computed through iteration, along the propagation direction.

  4. Beam and Warming scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_and_Warming_scheme

    In numerical mathematics, Beam and Warming scheme or Beam–Warming implicit scheme introduced in 1978 by Richard M. Beam and R. F. Warming, [1] [2] is a second order accurate implicit scheme, mainly used for solving non-linear hyperbolic equations. It is not used much nowadays.

  5. Monte Carlo method for photon transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method_for...

    Modeling photon propagation with Monte Carlo methods is a flexible yet rigorous approach to simulate photon transport. In the method, local rules of photon transport are expressed as probability distributions which describe the step size of photon movement between sites of photon-matter interaction and the angles of deflection in a photon's trajectory when a scattering event occurs.

  6. Finite element method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_method

    The S-FEM, Smoothed Finite Element Methods, is a particular class of numerical simulation algorithms for the simulation of physical phenomena. It was developed by combining mesh-free methods with the finite element method.

  7. Beam stack search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_stack_search

    Beam stack search [1] is a search algorithm that combines chronological backtracking (that is, depth-first search) with beam search and is similar to depth-first beam search. [2] Both search algorithms are anytime algorithms that find good but likely sub-optimal solutions quickly, like beam search, then backtrack and continue to find improved ...

  8. Split-step method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-step_method

    In numerical analysis, the split-step (Fourier) method is a pseudo-spectral numerical method used to solve nonlinear partial differential equations like the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.

  9. Simultaneous localization and mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_localization...

    2005 DARPA Grand Challenge winner Stanley performed SLAM as part of its autonomous driving system. A map generated by a SLAM Robot. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the computational problem of constructing or updating a map of an unknown environment while simultaneously keeping track of an agent's location within it.
