  2. MedCalc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MedCalc

    Procedures for method evaluation and method comparison include ROC curve analysis, [6] Bland–Altman plot, [7] as well as Deming and Passing–Bablok regression. [ 8 ] The software also includes reference interval estimation, [ 9 ] meta-analysis and sample size calculations.

  3. Calculus of variations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus_of_Variations

    A simple example of such a problem is to find the curve of shortest length connecting two points. If there are no constraints, the solution is a straight line between the points. However, if the curve is constrained to lie on a surface in space, then the solution is less obvious, and possibly many solutions may exist.

  4. Knee of a curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knee_of_a_curve

    Photovoltaic solar cell I-V curves where a line intersects the knee of the curves where the maximum power transfer point is located. In mathematics , a knee of a curve (or elbow of a curve ) is a point where the curve visibly bends, specifically from high slope to low slope (flat or close to flat), or in the other direction.

  5. De Boor's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Boor's_algorithm

    In the mathematical subfield of numerical analysis, de Boor's algorithm [1] is a polynomial-time and numerically stable algorithm for evaluating spline curves in B-spline form. It is a generalization of de Casteljau's algorithm for Bézier curves. The algorithm was devised by German-American mathematician Carl R. de Boor. Simplified ...

  6. Differentiable curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiable_curve

    Differential geometry of curves is the branch of geometry that deals with smooth curves in the plane and the Euclidean space by methods of differential and integral calculus. Many specific curves have been thoroughly investigated using the synthetic approach .

  7. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Curve fitting can involve either interpolation , [ 6 ] [ 7 ] where an exact fit to the data is required, or smoothing , [ 8 ] [ 9 ] in which a "smooth ...

  8. Midpoint circle algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_circle_algorithm

    To draw only a certain arc from an angle to an angle , the algorithm needs first to calculate the and coordinates of these end points, where it is necessary to resort to trigonometric or square root computations (see Methods of computing square roots). Then the Bresenham algorithm is run over the complete octant or circle and sets the pixels ...

  9. Intersection (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    A parametrically or explicitly given curve can easily be visualized, because to any parameter t or x respectively it is easy to calculate the corresponding point. For implicitly given curves this task is not as easy. In this case one has to determine a curve point with help of starting values and an iteration. See . [2] Examples:
