  2. Aleph number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleph_number

    The aleph numbers differ from the infinity commonly found in algebra and calculus, in that the alephs measure the sizes of sets, while infinity is commonly defined either as an extreme limit of the real number line (applied to a function or sequence that "diverges to infinity" or "increases without bound"), or as an extreme point of the ...

  3. Smooth maximum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_maximum

    In many cases, a single family approximates both: maximum as the parameter goes to positive infinity, minimum as the parameter goes to negative infinity; in symbols, ⁠ ⁠ as ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ as ⁠ ⁠. The term can also be used loosely for a specific smooth function that behaves similarly to a maximum, without necessarily being part of a ...

  4. 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + ⋯ - ⋯ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1/2_%2B_1/4_%2B_1/8_%2B_1/...

    In mathematics, the infinite series ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ + ⁠ 1 / 16 ⁠ + ··· is an elementary example of a geometric series that converges absolutely. The sum of the series is 1.

  5. Absolute infinite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_Infinite

    The absolute infinite (symbol: Ω), in context often called "absolute", is an extension of the idea of infinity proposed by mathematician Georg Cantor. It can be thought of as a number that is bigger than any other conceivable or inconceivable quantity, either finite or transfinite .

  6. Scratch (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratch_(programming_language)

    In Scratch 1.4, an *.sb file was the file format used to store projects. [67] An *.sb file is divided into four sections: "header", this 10-byte header contains the ASCII string "ScratchV02" in versions higher than Scratch 1.2, and "ScratchV01" in Scratch 1.2 and below "infoSize", encodes the length of the project's infoObjects.

  7. Dirichlet eta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet_eta_function

    Color representation of the Dirichlet eta function. It is generated as a Matplotlib plot using a version of the Domain coloring method. [1]In mathematics, in the area of analytic number theory, the Dirichlet eta function is defined by the following Dirichlet series, which converges for any complex number having real part > 0: = = = + +.

  8. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

    For numbers with a base-2 exponent part of 0, i.e. numbers with an absolute value higher than or equal to 1 but lower than 2, an ULP is exactly 2 −23 or about 10 −7 in single precision, and exactly 2 −53 or about 10 −16 in double precision. The mandated behavior of IEEE-compliant hardware is that the result be within one-half of a ULP.

  9. Iteratively reweighted least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iteratively_reweighted...

    IRLS can be used for ℓ 1 minimization and smoothed ℓ p minimization, p < 1, in compressed sensing problems. It has been proved that the algorithm has a linear rate of convergence for ℓ 1 norm and superlinear for ℓ t with t < 1, under the restricted isometry property , which is generally a sufficient condition for sparse solutions.
