  2. Hamming distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance

    For a fixed length n, the Hamming distance is a metric on the set of the words of length n (also known as a Hamming space), as it fulfills the conditions of non-negativity, symmetry, the Hamming distance of two words is 0 if and only if the two words are identical, and it satisfies the triangle inequality as well: [2] Indeed, if we fix three words a, b and c, then whenever there is a ...

  3. Multi-objective optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-objective_optimization

    Multi-objective optimization or Pareto optimization (also known as multi-objective programming, vector optimization, multicriteria optimization, or multiattribute optimization) is an area of multiple-criteria decision making that is concerned with mathematical optimization problems involving more than one objective function to be optimized simultaneously.

  4. Weighted sum model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_Sum_Model

    In decision theory, the weighted sum model (WSM), [1] [2] also called weighted linear combination (WLC) [3] or simple additive weighting (SAW), [4] is the best known and simplest multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) / multi-criteria decision making method for evaluating a number of alternatives in terms of a number of decision criteria.

  5. Upper and lower bounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_and_lower_bounds

    The definitions can be generalized to functions and even to sets of functions. Given a function f with domain D and a preordered set (K, ≤) as codomain, an element y of K is an upper bound of f if y ≥ f (x) for each x in D. The upper bound is called sharp if equality holds for at least one value of x. It indicates that the constraint is ...

  6. 3-dimensional matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-dimensional_matching

    3-dimensional matchings. (a) Input T. (b)–(c) Solutions. In the mathematical discipline of graph theory, a 3-dimensional matching is a generalization of bipartite matching (also known as 2-dimensional matching) to 3-partite hypergraphs, which consist of hyperedges each of which contains 3 vertices (instead of edges containing 2 vertices in a usual graph).

  7. Multicriteria classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicriteria_classification

    In a value function model, the classification rules can be expressed as follows: Alternative i is assigned to group c r if and only if + < < where V is a value function (non-decreasing with respect to the criteria) and t 1 > t 2 > ... > t k−1 are thresholds defining the category limits.

  8. Multi-index notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-index_notation

    Multi-index notation is a mathematical notation that simplifies formulas used in multivariable calculus, partial differential equations and the theory of distributions, by generalising the concept of an integer index to an ordered tuple of indices.
