  2. Maximum subarray problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_subarray_problem

    Maximum subarray problems arise in many fields, such as genomic sequence analysis and computer vision.. Genomic sequence analysis employs maximum subarray algorithms to identify important biological segments of protein sequences that have unusual properties, by assigning scores to points within the sequence that are positive when a motif to be recognized is present, and negative when it is not ...

  3. Basel problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basel_problem

    The sum of the series is approximately equal to 1.644934. [3] The Basel problem asks for the exact sum of this series (in closed form), as well as a proof that this sum is correct. Euler found the exact sum to be / and announced this discovery in 1735. His arguments were based on manipulations that were not justified at the time, although he ...

  4. Sum of normally distributed random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_normally...

    This means that the sum of two independent normally distributed random variables is normal, with its mean being the sum of the two means, and its variance being the sum of the two variances (i.e., the square of the standard deviation is the sum of the squares of the standard deviations). [1]

  5. Ramanujan summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramanujan_summation

    Ramanujan summation is a technique invented by the mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan for assigning a value to divergent infinite series.Although the Ramanujan summation of a divergent series is not a sum in the traditional sense, it has properties that make it mathematically useful in the study of divergent infinite series, for which conventional summation is undefined.

  6. Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    For larger scales the sum of the angles of a triangle is not equal to 180°. Geometry is one of the oldest branches of mathematics. It started with empirical recipes concerning shapes, such as lines , angles and circles , which were developed mainly for the needs of surveying and architecture , but has since blossomed out into many other subfields.

  7. Direct sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_sum

    The direct sum is also commutative up to isomorphism, i.e. for any algebraic structures and of the same kind. The direct sum of finitely many abelian groups, vector spaces, or modules is canonically isomorphic to the corresponding direct product. This is false, however, for some algebraic objects, like nonabelian groups.

  8. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    The idea of fuzzy checksum was developed for detection of email spam by building up cooperative databases from multiple ISPs of email suspected to be spam. The content of such spam may often vary in its details, which would render normal checksumming ineffective.

  9. Multiple trace theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_trace_theory

    In psychology, multiple trace theory is a memory consolidation model advanced as an alternative model to strength theory.It posits that each time some information is presented to a person, it is neurally encoded in a unique memory trace composed of a combination of its attributes. [1]
