The extrema must occur at the pass and stop band edges and at either ω=0 or ω=π or both. The derivative of a polynomial of degree L is a polynomial of degree L−1, which can be zero at most at L−1 places. [3] So the maximum number of local extrema is the L−1 local extrema plus the 4 band edges, giving a total of L+3 extrema.
In mathematical optimization, the method of Lagrange multipliers is a strategy for finding the local maxima and minima of a function subject to equation constraints (i.e., subject to the condition that one or more equations have to be satisfied exactly by the chosen values of the variables). [1] It is named after the mathematician Joseph-Louis ...
In both the global and local cases, the concept of a strict extremum can be defined. For example, x ∗ is a strict global maximum point if for all x in X with x ≠ x ∗, we have f(x ∗) > f(x), and x ∗ is a strict local maximum point if there exists some ε > 0 such that, for all x in X within distance ε of x ∗ with x ≠ x ∗, we ...
The detection and description of local image features can help in object recognition. The SIFT features are local and based on the appearance of the object at particular interest points, and are invariant to image scale and rotation. They are also robust to changes in illumination, noise, and minor changes in viewpoint.
A main problem with such an approach, however, is that local extrema are very sensitive to noise. To address this problem, Lindeberg (1993, 1994) studied the problem of detecting local maxima with extent at multiple scales in scale space. A region with spatial extent defined from a watershed analogy was associated with each local maximum, as ...
In statistics, an expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm is an iterative method to find (local) maximum likelihood or maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimates of parameters in statistical models, where the model depends on unobserved latent variables. [1]
Xcas can solve equations, calculate derivatives, antiderivatives and more. Figure 3. Xcas can solve differential equations. Xcas is a user interface to Giac, which is an open source [2] computer algebra system (CAS) for Windows, macOS and Linux among many other platforms. Xcas is written in C++. [3] Giac can be used directly inside software ...
The golden-section search is a technique for finding an extremum (minimum or maximum) of a function inside a specified interval. For a strictly unimodal function with an extremum inside the interval, it will find that extremum, while for an interval containing multiple extrema (possibly including the interval boundaries), it will converge to one of them.
