  2. Generating function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generating_function

    An example where convolutions of generating functions are useful allows us to solve for a specific closed-form function representing the ordinary generating function for the Catalan numbers, C n. In particular, this sequence has the combinatorial interpretation as being the number of ways to insert parentheses into the product x 0 · x 1 ·⋯ ...

  3. Central pattern generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_pattern_generator

    Central pattern generators can also play a role in rhythm generation for other functions in vertebrates. For example, the rat vibrissa system uses an unconventional CPG for whisking movements . "Like other CPGs, the whisking generator can operate without cortical input or sensory feedback.

  4. Receptor potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receptor_potential

    A receptor potential can also cause the release of neurotransmitters from one cell that will act on another cell, generating an action potential in the second cell. [4] The magnitude of the receptor potential determines the frequency with which action potentials are generated and is controlled by adaptation, stimulus strength, and temporal ...

  5. Generative model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_model

    For example, GPT-3, and its precursor GPT-2, [11] are auto-regressive neural language models that contain billions of parameters, BigGAN [12] and VQ-VAE [13] which are used for image generation that can have hundreds of millions of parameters, and Jukebox is a very large generative model for musical audio that contains billions of parameters. [14]

  6. Branching process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching_process

    The most common formulation of a branching process is that of the Galton–Watson process.Let Z n denote the state in period n (often interpreted as the size of generation n), and let X n,i be a random variable denoting the number of direct successors of member i in period n, where X n,i are independent and identically distributed random variables over all n ∈{ 0, 1, 2, ...} and i ∈ {1 ...

  7. Systematic inventive thinking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systematic_inventive_thinking

    These templates may contribute to the understanding and prediction of new product emergence. The invention of new products has traditionally involved methods that encourage the generation of large numbers of ideas. The notion that the rewards of generating a large number of ideas outweigh the costs can be traced back to early studies in the ...

  8. Data generating process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_generating_process

    In statistics and in empirical sciences, a data generating process is a process in the real world that "generates" the data one is interested in. [1] This process encompasses the underlying mechanisms, factors, and randomness that contribute to the production of observed data.

  9. Generation effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_effect

    The generation effect is typically achieved in cognitive psychology experiments by asking participants to generate words from word fragments. [2] This effect has also been demonstrated using a variety of other materials, such as when generating a word after being presented with its antonym, [3] synonym, [1] picture, [4] arithmetic problems, [2] [5] or keyword in a paragraph.
