  2. Exponential smoothing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_smoothing

    Exponential smoothing was first suggested in the statistical literature without citation to previous work by Robert Goodell Brown in 1956, [3] and then expanded by Charles C. Holt in 1957. [4] The formulation below, which is the one commonly used, is attributed to Brown and is known as "Brown’s simple exponential smoothing". [ 5 ]

  3. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

    This has the convenient implication for 2 × 2 and 3 × 3 rotation matrices that the trace reveals the angle of rotation, θ, in the two-dimensional space (or subspace). For a 2 × 2 matrix the trace is 2 cos θ, and for a 3 × 3 matrix it is 1 + 2 cos θ. In the three-dimensional case, the subspace consists of all vectors perpendicular to the ...

  4. Index notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_notation

    A vector treated as an array of numbers by writing as a row vector or column vector (whichever is used depends on convenience or context): = (), = Index notation allows indication of the elements of the array by simply writing a i, where the index i is known to run from 1 to n, because of n-dimensions. [1]

    Using the x-convention, the 3-1-3 extrinsic Euler angles φ, θ and ψ (around the z-axis, x-axis and again the -axis) can be obtained as follows: = ⁡ (,) = ⁡ = ⁡ (,) Note that atan2( a , b ) is equivalent to arctan ⁠ a / b ⁠ where it also takes into account the quadrant that the point ( b , a ) is in; see atan2 .

    p ↦ q p for q = ⁠ 1 + i + j + k / 2 ⁠ on the unit 3-sphere. Note this one-sided (namely, left) multiplication yields a 60° rotation of quaternions. The length of is √ 3, the half angle is ⁠ π / 3 ⁠ (60°) with cosine ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, (cos 60° = 0.5) and sine ⁠ √ 3 / 2 ⁠, (sin 60° ≈ 0.866). We are therefore dealing with a ...

  7. Transformation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_matrix

    We only consider stretches along the x-axis and y-axis. A stretch along the x-axis has the form x' = kx; y' = y for some positive constant k. (Note that if k > 1, then this really is a "stretch"; if k < 1, it is technically a "compression", but we still call it a stretch. Also, if k = 1, then the transformation is an identity, i.e. it has no ...

  8. Rotation of axes in two dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_of_axes_in_two...

    In mathematics, a rotation of axes in two dimensions is a mapping from an xy-Cartesian coordinate system to an x′y′-Cartesian coordinate system in which the origin is kept fixed and the x′ and y′ axes are obtained by rotating the x and y axes counterclockwise through an angle .

  9. Complex plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_plane

    The result is the Riemann surface domain on which f(z) = z 1/2 is single-valued and holomorphic (except when z = 0). [6] To understand why f is single-valued in this domain, imagine a circuit around the unit circle, starting with z = 1 on the first sheet. When 0 ≤ θ < 2π we are still on the first sheet.
