  2. Kahan summation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahan_summation_algorithm

    The algorithm performs summation with two accumulators: sum holds the sum, and c accumulates the parts not assimilated into sum, to nudge the low-order part of sum the next time around. Thus the summation proceeds with "guard digits" in c , which is better than not having any, but is not as good as performing the calculations with double the ...

  3. Riemann sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_sum

    Specific choices of give different types of Riemann sums: . If = for all i, the method is the left rule [2] [3] and gives a left Riemann sum.; If = for all i, the method is the right rule [2] [3] and gives a right Riemann sum.

  4. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total.Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions, vectors, matrices, polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.

  5. Ramanujan summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramanujan_summation

    Ramanujan summation is a technique invented by the mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan for assigning a value to divergent infinite series.Although the Ramanujan summation of a divergent series is not a sum in the traditional sense, it has properties that make it mathematically useful in the study of divergent infinite series, for which conventional summation is undefined.

  6. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    The method in Europe stems from the notes of Isaac Newton. [5] [6] In 1670, he wrote that all the algebra books known to him lacked a lesson for solving simultaneous equations, which Newton then supplied. Cambridge University eventually published the notes as Arithmetica Universalis in 1707 long after Newton had left academic life. The notes ...

  7. Finite difference method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference_method

    The method is based on finite differences where the differentiation operators exhibit summation-by-parts properties. Typically, these operators consist of differentiation matrices with central difference stencils in the interior with carefully chosen one-sided boundary stencils designed to mimic integration-by-parts in the discrete setting.

  8. Divisor summatory function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisor_summatory_function

    In number theory, the divisor summatory function is a function that is a sum over the divisor function. It frequently occurs in the study of the asymptotic behaviour of the Riemann zeta function. The various studies of the behaviour of the divisor function are sometimes called divisor problems.

  9. Ensemble learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ensemble_learning

    Given the growth of satellite data over time, the past decade sees more use of time series methods for continuous change detection from image stacks. [60] One example is a Bayesian ensemble changepoint detection method called BEAST, with the software available as a package Rbeast in R, Python, and Matlab.
