Dimension (vector space) A diagram of dimensions 1, 2, 3, and 4. In mathematics, the dimension of a vector space V is the cardinality (i.e., the number of vectors) of a basis of V over its base field. [ 1][ 2] It is sometimes called Hamel dimension (after Georg Hamel) or algebraic dimension to distinguish it from other types of dimension .
Vapnik–Chervonenkis dimension. In Vapnik–Chervonenkis theory, the Vapnik–Chervonenkis (VC) dimension is a measure of the size (capacity, complexity, expressive power, richness, or flexibility) of a class of sets. The notion can be extended to classes of binary functions. It is defined as the cardinality of the largest set of points that ...
In mathematics. In mathematics, the dimension of an object is, roughly speaking, the number of degrees of freedom of a point that moves on this object. In other words, the dimension is the number of independent parameters or coordinates that are needed for defining the position of a point that is constrained to be on the object.
Machine learningand data mining. Vapnik–Chervonenkis theory (also known as VC theory) was developed during 1960–1990 by Vladimir Vapnik and Alexey Chervonenkis. The theory is a form of computational learning theory, which attempts to explain the learning process from a statistical point of view.
Vector space. Vector addition and scalar multiplication: a vector v (blue) is added to another vector w (red, upper illustration). Below, w is stretched by a factor of 2, yielding the sum v + 2w. In mathematics and physics, a vector space (also called a linear space) is a set whose elements, often called vectors, can be added together and ...
Dimension theorem for vector spaces. In mathematics, the dimension theorem for vector spaces states that all bases of a vector space have equally many elements. This number of elements may be finite or infinite (in the latter case, it is a cardinal number ), and defines the dimension of the vector space. Formally, the dimension theorem for ...
Five-dimensional space. A 2D orthogonal projection of a 5-cube. A five-dimensional space is a space with five dimensions. In mathematics, a sequence of N numbers can represent a location in an N -dimensional space. If interpreted physically, that is one more than the usual three spatial dimensions and the fourth dimension of time used in ...
The zero vector is given by the constant function sending everything to the zero vector in V. The space of all functions from X to V is commonly denoted V X. If X is finite and V is finite-dimensional then V X has dimension |X|(dim V), otherwise the space is infinite-dimensional (uncountably so if X is infinite).
