  2. Cascade algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascade_algorithm

    In the mathematical topic of wavelet theory, the cascade algorithm is a numerical method for calculating function values of the basic scaling and wavelet functions of a discrete wavelet transform using an iterative algorithm. It starts from values on a coarse sequence of sampling points and produces values for successively more densely spaced ...

  3. Functional dependency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_dependency

    Functional dependencies however should not be confused with inclusion dependencies, which are the formalism for foreign keys; even though they are used for normalization, functional dependencies express constraints over one relation (schema), whereas inclusion dependencies express constraints between relation schemas in a database schema.

  4. Schema evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_evolution

    The key problem is the impact of the schema evolution on queries and applications. As shown in the article Schema Evolution in Wikipedia - Toward a Web Information System Benchmark (2008) [ 3 ] (which provides an analysis of the MediaWiki evolution) each evolution step might affect up to 70% of the queries operating on the schema, that must be ...

  5. Function field (scheme theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_field_(scheme_theory)

    The sheaf of rational functions K X of a scheme X is the generalization to scheme theory of the notion of function field of an algebraic variety in classical algebraic geometry. In the case of algebraic varieties , such a sheaf associates to each open set U the ring of all rational functions on that open set; in other words, K X ( U ) is the ...

  6. Axiom schema of replacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axiom_schema_of_replacement

    The axiom schema is motivated by the idea that whether a class is a set depends only on the cardinality of the class, not on the rank of its elements. Thus, if one class is "small enough" to be a set, and there is a surjection from that class to a second class, the

  7. Scheme (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheme_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, specifically algebraic geometry, a scheme is a structure that enlarges the notion of algebraic variety in several ways, such as taking account of multiplicities (the equations x = 0 and x 2 = 0 define the same algebraic variety but different schemes) and allowing "varieties" defined over any commutative ring (for example, Fermat curves are defined over the integers).

  8. Method cascading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_cascading

    Cascading can be implemented in terms of chaining by having the methods return the target object (receiver, this, self).However, this requires that the method be implemented this way already – or the original object be wrapped in another object that does this – and that the method not return some other, potentially useful value (or nothing if that would be more appropriate, as in setters).

  9. Schema (genetic algorithms) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_(genetic_algorithms)

    The order of a schema is defined as the number of fixed positions in the template, while the defining length is the distance between the first and last specific positions. The order of 1**0*1 is 3 and its defining length is 5. The fitness of a schema is the average fitness of all strings matching the schema. The fitness of a string is a measure ...
