  2. Anderson acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_acceleration

    In mathematics, Anderson acceleration, also called Anderson mixing, is a method for the acceleration of the convergence rate of fixed-point iterations.Introduced by Donald G. Anderson, [1] this technique can be used to find the solution to fixed point equations () = often arising in the field of computational science.

  3. Mixin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixin

    Mixins first appeared in Symbolics's object-oriented Flavors system (developed by Howard Cannon), which was an approach to object-orientation used in Lisp Machine Lisp.The name was inspired by Steve's Ice Cream Parlor in Somerville, Massachusetts: [1] The owner of the ice cream shop offered a basic flavor of ice cream (vanilla, chocolate, etc.) and blended in a combination of extra items (nuts ...

  4. Broyden's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broyden's_method

    Newton's method for solving f(x) = 0 uses the Jacobian matrix, J, at every iteration. However, computing this Jacobian can be a difficult and expensive operation; for large problems such as those involving solving the Kohn–Sham equations in quantum mechanics the number of variables can be in the hundreds of thousands. The idea behind Broyden ...

  5. HiGHS optimization solver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HiGHS_optimization_solver

    HiGHS has an interior point method implementation for solving LP problems, based on techniques described by Schork and Gondzio (2020). [10] It is notable for solving the Newton system iteratively by a preconditioned conjugate gradient method, rather than directly, via an LDL* decomposition. The interior point solver's performance relative to ...

  6. Handshake (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshake_(computing)

    In computing, a handshake is a signal between two devices or programs, used to, e.g., authenticate, coordinate. An example is the handshaking between a hypervisor and an application in a guest virtual machine .

  7. Mixing (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixing_(mathematics)

    The baker's map is mixing, shown by the red and blue points being completely mixed after several iterations. In mathematics, mixing is an abstract concept originating from physics: the attempt to describe the irreversible thermodynamic process of mixing in the everyday world: e.g. mixing paint, mixing drinks, industrial mixing.

  8. Computer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming

    Computer programming or coding is the composition of sequences of instructions, called programs, that computers can follow to perform tasks. [1] [2] It involves designing and implementing algorithms, step-by-step specifications of procedures, by writing code in one or more programming languages.

  9. Mixture distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_distribution

    Here the problem of evaluation of the modes of an n component mixture in a D dimensional space is reduced to identification of critical points (local minima, maxima and saddle points) on a manifold referred to as the ridgeline surface, which is the image of the ridgeline function = [=] [=], where belongs to the ()-dimensional standard simplex ...
