  2. Rate of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_convergence

    This definition is technically called Q-convergence, short for quotient-convergence, and the rates and orders are called rates and orders of Q-convergence when that technical specificity is needed. § R-convergence , below, is an appropriate alternative when this limit does not exist.

  3. Sieve estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_estimator

    Sieve estimators have been used extensively for estimating density functions in high-dimensional spaces such as in Positron emission tomography (PET). The first exploitation of Sieves in PET for solving the maximum-likelihood image reconstruction problem was by Donald Snyder and Michael Miller, [1] where they stabilized the time-of-flight PET problem originally solved by Shepp and Vardi. [2]

  4. Multivariate kernel density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_kernel...

    The rate of convergence of the MSE to 0 is the necessarily the same as the MISE rate noted previously O(n −4/(d+4)), hence the convergence rate of the density estimator to f is O p (n −2/(d+4)) where O p denotes order in probability. This establishes pointwise convergence.

  5. Sieve analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_analysis

    A sieve analysis (or gradation test) is a practice or procedure used in geology, civil engineering, [1] and chemical engineering [2] to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction ...

  6. Goldston–Pintz–Yıldırım sieve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldston–Pintz...

    The Goldston–Pintz–Yıldırım sieve (also called GPY sieve or GPY method) is a sieve method and variant of the Selberg sieve with generalized, multidimensional sieve weights. The sieve led to a series of important breakthroughs in analytic number theory. It is named after the mathematicians Dan Goldston, János Pintz and Cem Yıldırım. [1]

  7. Richardson extrapolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richardson_extrapolation

    In numerical analysis, Richardson extrapolation is a sequence acceleration method used to improve the rate of convergence of a sequence of estimates of some value = (). In essence, given the value of A ( h ) {\displaystyle A(h)} for several values of h {\displaystyle h} , we can estimate A ∗ {\displaystyle A^{\ast }} by extrapolating the ...

  8. Aitken's delta-squared process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aitken's_delta-squared_process

    In numerical analysis, Aitken's delta-squared process or Aitken extrapolation is a series acceleration method used for accelerating the rate of convergence of a sequence. It is named after Alexander Aitken, who introduced this method in 1926. [1] It is most useful for accelerating the convergence of a sequence that is converging linearly.

  9. Iteratively reweighted least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iteratively_reweighted...

    IRLS can be used for ℓ 1 minimization and smoothed ℓ p minimization, p < 1, in compressed sensing problems. It has been proved that the algorithm has a linear rate of convergence for ℓ 1 norm and superlinear for ℓ t with t < 1, under the restricted isometry property, which is generally a sufficient condition for sparse solutions.
