    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thesaurus

    A thesaurus (pl.: thesauri or thesauruses), sometimes called a synonym dictionary or dictionary of synonyms, is a reference work which arranges words by their meanings (or in simpler terms, a book where one can find different words with similar meanings to other words), [1] [2] sometimes as a hierarchy of broader and narrower terms, sometimes simply as lists of synonyms and antonyms.

    Consider the following notation: (+)This denotes the minimum value of the objective function x 2 + 1, when choosing x from the set of real numbers.The minimum value in this case is 1, occurring at x = 0.

  5. Greedy algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm

    Greedy algorithms determine the minimum number of coins to give while making change. These are the steps most people would take to emulate a greedy algorithm to represent 36 cents using only coins with values {1, 5, 10, 20}.

  6. Optimal decision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_decision

    An optimal decision is a decision that leads to at least as good a known or expected outcome as all other available decision options. It is an important concept in decision theory.

  7. Bellman equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellman_equation

    Let be the state at time .For a decision that begins at time 0, we take as given the initial state .At any time, the set of possible actions depends on the current state; we express this as (), where a particular action represents particular values for one or more control variables, and () is the set of actions available to be taken at state .

  8. Process optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_optimization

    The process will be more expensive to operate, and equipment will wear out prematurely. For each control loop to run optimally, identification of sensor, valve, and tuning problems is important. It has been well documented that over 35% of control loops typically have problems. [citation needed]

  9. Stemming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stemming

    For example, the widely used Porter stemmer stems "universal", "university", and "universe" to "univers". This is a case of overstemming: though these three words are etymologically related, their modern meanings are in widely different domains, so treating them as synonyms in a search engine will likely reduce the relevance of the search results.
