  2. Stride of an array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stride_of_an_array

    In computer programming, the stride of an array (also referred to as increment, pitch or step size) is the number of locations in memory between beginnings of successive array elements, measured in bytes or in units of the size of the array's elements. The stride cannot be smaller than the element size but can be larger, indicating extra space ...

  3. Barzilai-Borwein method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barzilai-Borwein_method

    The short BB step size is same as a linearized minimum-residual step. BB applies the step sizes upon the forward direction vector for the next iterate, instead of the prior direction vector as if for another line-search step. Barzilai and Borwein proved their method converges R-superlinearly for quadratic minimization in two dimensions.

  4. List comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.

  5. First-fit-decreasing bin packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-fit-decreasing_bin...

    In short: FFD orders the items by descending size, and then calls first-fit bin packing. An equivalent description of the FFD algorithm is as follows. Order the items from largest to smallest. While there are remaining items: Open a new empty bin. For each item from largest to smallest: If it can fit into the current bin, insert it.

  6. Line search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_search

    The step size can be determined either exactly or inexactly. Here is an example gradient method that uses a line search in step 5: Set iteration counter k = 0 {\displaystyle k=0} and make an initial guess x 0 {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} _{0}} for the minimum.

  7. Backtracking line search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backtracking_line_search

    The method involves starting with a relatively large estimate of the step size for movement along the line search direction, and iteratively shrinking the step size (i.e., "backtracking") until a decrease of the objective function is observed that adequately corresponds to the amount of decrease that is expected, based on the step size and the ...

  8. Marching squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marching_squares

    For example, a scattered set of data points could be connected with a Delaunay triangulation to allow the data field to be contoured. A triangular cell is always planar, because it is a 2-simplex (i.e. specified by n+1 vertices in an n-dimensional space). There is always a unique linear interpolant across a triangle, and no possibility of an ...

  9. Array slicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_slicing

    Note that Python allows negative list indices. The index -1 represents the last element, -2 the penultimate element, etc. Python also allows a step property by appending an extra colon and a value. For example:
