  2. Residue (complex analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residue_(complex_analysis)

    Alternatively, residues can be calculated by finding Laurent series expansions, and one can define the residue as the coefficient a −1 of a Laurent series. The concept can be used to provide contour integration values of certain contour integral problems considered in the residue theorem.

  3. Residual (numerical analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_(numerical_analysis)

    When one does not know the exact solution, one may look for the approximation with small residual. Residuals appear in many areas in mathematics, including iterative solvers such as the generalized minimal residual method , which seeks solutions to equations by systematically minimizing the residual.

  4. Residue theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residue_theorem

    In complex analysis, the residue theorem, sometimes called Cauchy's residue theorem, is a powerful tool to evaluate line integrals of analytic functions over closed curves; it can often be used to compute real integrals and infinite series as well.

  5. Residual sum of squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_sum_of_squares

    The general regression model with n observations and k explanators, the first of which is a constant unit vector whose coefficient is the regression intercept, is = + where y is an n × 1 vector of dependent variable observations, each column of the n × k matrix X is a vector of observations on one of the k explanators, is a k × 1 vector of true coefficients, and e is an n× 1 vector of the ...

  6. Remainder - Wikipedia

    For algorithms describing how to calculate the remainder, see Division algorithm.) The remainder, as defined above, is called the least positive remainder or simply the remainder. [2] In some occasions, it is convenient to carry out the division so that a is as close to an integral multiple of d as possible, that is, we can write

  7. Errors and residuals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_and_residuals

    Thus to compare residuals at different inputs, one needs to adjust the residuals by the expected variability of residuals, which is called studentizing. This is particularly important in the case of detecting outliers, where the case in question is somehow different from the others in a dataset. For example, a large residual may be expected in ...

  8. Degrees of freedom (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom...

    Here, the degrees of freedom arises from the residual sum-of-squares in the numerator, and in turn the n − 1 degrees of freedom of the underlying residual vector {¯}. In the application of these distributions to linear models, the degrees of freedom parameters can take only integer values. The underlying families of distributions allow ...

  9. Fixed-point computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_computation

    X is a fixed-point of if and only if x is a root of , and x is an ε-residual fixed-point of if and only if x is an ε-root of . Therefore, any root-finding algorithm (an algorithm that computes an approximate root of a function) can be used to find an approximate fixed-point.
