The logarithm function is not defined for zero, so log probabilities can only represent non-zero probabilities. Since the logarithm of a number in (,) interval is negative, often the negative log probabilities are used. In that case the log probabilities in the following formulas would be inverted.
In computing, a roundoff error, [1] also called rounding error, [2] is the difference between the result produced by a given algorithm using exact arithmetic and the result produced by the same algorithm using finite-precision, rounded arithmetic. [3]
Here x ≥ 0 means that each component of the vector x should be non-negative, and ‖·‖ 2 denotes the Euclidean norm. Non-negative least squares problems turn up as subproblems in matrix decomposition, e.g. in algorithms for PARAFAC [2] and non-negative matrix/tensor factorization. [3] [4] The latter can be considered a generalization of ...
Negative zero behaves exactly like positive zero: when used as an operand in any calculation, the result will be the same whether an operand is positive or negative zero. The disadvantage is that the existence of two forms of the same value necessitates two comparisons when checking for equality with zero. Ones' complement subtraction can also ...
It is used extensively in probabilistic modelling research. Examples include: - Candela, Joaquin Quinonero, et al. "Propagation of uncertainty in bayesian kernel models-application to multiple-step ahead forecasting."
The natural logarithm can be defined for any positive real number a as the area under the curve y = 1/x from 1 to a [4] (with the area being negative when 0 < a < 1). The simplicity of this definition, which is matched in many other formulas involving the natural logarithm, leads to the term "natural".

The problem is that it can be negative (if + <) or even undefined (if + =). Therefore, the currently accepted version of SMAPE assumes the absolute values in the denominator. Therefore, the currently accepted version of SMAPE assumes the absolute values in the denominator.
