  2. Lookup table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookup_table

    Functions involving two or more variables require multidimensional array indexing techniques. The latter case may thus employ a two-dimensional array of power[x][y] to replace a function to calculate x y for a limited range of x and y values. Functions that have more than one result may be implemented with lookup tables that are arrays of ...

  3. Power Query - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Query

    Power Query was first announced in 2011 under the codename "Data Explorer" as part of Azure SQL Labs. In 2013, in order to expand on the self-service business intelligence capabilities of Microsoft Excel, the project was redesigned to be packaged as an add-in Excel and was renamed "Data Explorer Preview for Excel" [4], and was made available for Excel 2010 and Excel 2013. [5]

  4. Approximate string matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximate_string_matching

    With the availability of large amounts of DNA data, matching of nucleotide sequences has become an important application. [1] Approximate matching is also used in spam filtering. [5] Record linkage is a common application where records from two disparate databases are matched. String matching cannot be used for most binary data, such as images ...

  5. Data Analysis Expressions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Analysis_eXpressions

    Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) is the native formula and query language for Microsoft PowerPivot, Power BI Desktop and SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) Tabular models. DAX includes some of the functions that are used in Excel formulas with additional functions that are designed to work with relational data and perform dynamic aggregation.

  6. Function approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_approximation

    Several progressively more accurate approximations of the step function. An asymmetrical Gaussian function fit to a noisy curve using regression.. In general, a function approximation problem asks us to select a function among a well-defined class [citation needed] [clarification needed] that closely matches ("approximates") a target function [citation needed] in a task-specific way.

  7. Matching (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_(statistics)

    Matching is a statistical technique that evaluates the effect of a treatment by comparing the treated and the non-treated units in an observational study or quasi-experiment (i.e. when the treatment is not randomly assigned).

  8. Approximation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approximation_theory

    The objective is to make the approximation as close as possible to the actual function, typically with an accuracy close to that of the underlying computer's floating point arithmetic. This is accomplished by using a polynomial of high degree, and/or narrowing the domain over which the polynomial has to approximate the function. Narrowing the ...

  9. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Fitting of a noisy curve by an asymmetrical peak model, with an iterative process (Gauss–Newton algorithm with variable damping factor α).Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints.
