    Meshfree methods — does not use a mesh, but uses a particle view of the field Discrete least squares meshless method — based on minimization of weighted summation of the squared residual; Diffuse element method; Finite pointset method — represent continuum by a point cloud; Moving Particle Semi-implicit Method

  3. Mathematical statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_statistics

    The data from a study can also be analyzed to consider secondary hypotheses inspired by the initial results, or to suggest new studies. A secondary analysis of the data from a planned study uses tools from data analysis, and the process of doing this is mathematical statistics. Data analysis is divided into:

  4. Mathematical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_analysis

    Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to general symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics). [25] Modern numerical analysis does not seek exact answers, because exact answers are often impossible to obtain in practice.

    Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics). It is the study of numerical methods that attempt to find approximate solutions of problems rather than the exact ones.

    Data may represent a numerical value, in form of quantitative data, or a label, as with qualitative data. Data may be collected, presented and summarised, in one of two methods called descriptive statistics. Two elementary summaries of data, singularly called a statistic, are the mean and dispersion.

  7. Mathematical model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_model

    If the model was constructed based on a set of data, one must determine for which systems or situations the known data is a "typical" set of data. The question of whether the model describes well the properties of the system between data points is called interpolation , and the same question for events or data points outside the observed data ...

  8. Experimental mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experimental_mathematics

    Mathematicians have always practiced experimental mathematics. Existing records of early mathematics, such as Babylonian mathematics, typically consist of lists of numerical examples illustrating algebraic identities. However, modern mathematics, beginning in the 17th century, developed a tradition of publishing results in a final, formal and ...

  9. Numerical method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_method

    In numerical analysis, a numerical method is a mathematical tool designed to solve numerical problems. The implementation of a numerical method with an appropriate convergence check in a programming language is called a numerical algorithm.
