  2. Wallis product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallis_product

    Wallis derived this infinite product using interpolation, though his method is not regarded as rigorous. A modern derivation can be found by examining ∫ 0 π sin n ⁡ x d x {\displaystyle \int _{0}^{\pi }\sin ^{n}x\,dx} for even and odd values of n {\displaystyle n} , and noting that for large n {\displaystyle n} , increasing n ...

  3. Hypergeometric function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypergeometric_function

    In the special case of λ, μ and ν real, with 0 ≤ λ,μ,ν < 1 then the s-maps are conformal maps of the upper half-plane H to triangles on the Riemann sphere, bounded by circular arcs. This mapping is a generalization of the Schwarz–Christoffel mapping to triangles with circular arcs. The singular points 0,1 and ∞ are sent to the ...

    John Wallis (26 December 1650 – 14 March 1717), [7] MP for Wallingford 1690–1695, married Elizabeth Harris (d. 1693) on 1 February 1682, with issue: one son and two daughters Elizabeth Wallis (1658–1703 [ 8 ] ), married William Benson (1649–1691) of Towcester, died with no issue

  5. Spatial ETL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_ETL

    Spatial extract, transform, load (spatial ETL), also known as geospatial transformation and load (GTL), is a process for managing and manipulating geospatial data, for example map data. It is a type of extract, transform, load (ETL) process, with software tools and libraries specialised for geographical information.

  6. Z-order curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve

    The Z-ordering can be used to efficiently build a quadtree (2D) or octree (3D) for a set of points. [5] [6] The basic idea is to sort the input set according to Z-order.Once sorted, the points can either be stored in a binary search tree and used directly, which is called a linear quadtree, [7] or they can be used to build a pointer based quadtree.

  7. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(geometry)

    In hyperbolic geometry (where Wallis's postulate is false) similar triangles are congruent. In the axiomatic treatment of Euclidean geometry given by George David Birkhoff (see Birkhoff's axioms ) the SAS similarity criterion given above was used to replace both Euclid's parallel postulate and the SAS axiom which enabled the dramatic shortening ...

  8. Lifting scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_scheme

    Block diagram of the (forward) generalized lifting scheme transform. Generalized lifting scheme is a dyadic transform that follows these rules: Deinterleaves the input into a stream of even-numbered samples and another stream of odd-numbered samples. This is sometimes referred to as a lazy wavelet transform. Computes a prediction mapping. This ...
