  2. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    The scaling is uniform if and only if the scaling factors are equal (v x = v y = v z). If all except one of the scale factors are equal to 1, we have directional scaling. In the case where v x = v y = v z = k, scaling increases the area of any surface by a factor of k 2 and the volume of any solid object by a factor of k 3.

  3. Comb sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comb_sort

    The shrink factor has a great effect on the efficiency of comb sort. Dobosiewicz suggested k = 4/3 = 1.333…, while Lacey and Box suggest 1.3 as an ideal shrink factor after empirical testing on over 200,000 random lists of length approximately 1000. A value too small slows the algorithm down by making unnecessarily many comparisons, whereas a ...

  4. Stretched exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretched_exponential_function

    With β = 1, the usual exponential function is recovered. With a stretching exponent β between 0 and 1, the graph of log f versus t is characteristically stretched, hence the name of the function. The compressed exponential function (with β > 1) has less practical importance, with the notable exception of β = 2, which gives the normal ...

  8. Transformation (function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_(function)

    In mathematics, a transformation, transform, or self-map [1] is a function f, usually with some geometrical underpinning, that maps a set X to itself, i.e. f: XX. [2] [3] [4] Examples include linear transformations of vector spaces and geometric transformations, which include projective transformations, affine transformations, and specific ...

  9. Shear mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_mapping

    Horizontal shear of a square into parallelograms with factors ⁡ and ⁡ =. In the plane =, a horizontal shear (or shear parallel to the x-axis) is a function that takes a generic point with coordinates (,) to the point (+,); where m is a fixed parameter, called the shear factor.
