  2. Linear code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_code

    The codewords in a linear block code are blocks of symbols that are encoded using more symbols than the original value to be sent. [2] A linear code of length n transmits blocks containing n symbols. For example, the [7,4,3] Hamming code is a linear binary code which represents 4-bit messages using 7-bit codewords. Two distinct codewords differ ...

  3. Hidden Markov model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_Markov_model

    Figure 1. Probabilistic parameters of a hidden Markov model (example) X — states y — possible observations a — state transition probabilities b — output probabilities. In its discrete form, a hidden Markov process can be visualized as a generalization of the urn problem with replacement (where each item from the urn is returned to the original urn before the next step). [7]

  4. Standard ML - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_ML

    For example, a module may require functions of type a-> b, but it is more convenient to write functions of type a * c-> b where there is a fixed relationship between the objects of type a and c. A function of type c-> (a * c-> b)-> a-> b can factor out this commonality. This is an example of the adapter pattern. [citation needed]

  5. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    For example, for Newton's method as applied to a function f to oscillate between 0 and 1, it is only necessary that the tangent line to f at 0 intersects the x-axis at 1 and that the tangent line to f at 1 intersects the x-axis at 0. [19] This is the case, for example, if f(x) = x 3 − 2x + 2.

  6. Affine transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_transformation

    Let X be an affine space over a field k, and V be its associated vector space. An affine transformation is a bijection f from X onto itself that is an affine map; this means that a linear map g from V to V is well defined by the equation () = (); here, as usual, the subtraction of two points denotes the free vector from the second point to the first one, and "well-defined" means that ...

  7. Linear approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_approximation

    Linear approximations in this case are further improved when the second derivative of a, ″ (), is sufficiently small (close to zero) (i.e., at or near an inflection point). If f {\displaystyle f} is concave down in the interval between x {\displaystyle x} and a {\displaystyle a} , the approximation will be an overestimate (since the ...

  8. Matrix analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_analysis

    In mathematics, particularly in linear algebra and applications, matrix analysis is the study of matrices and their algebraic properties. [1] Some particular topics out of many include; operations defined on matrices (such as matrix addition, matrix multiplication and operations derived from these), functions of matrices (such as matrix exponentiation and matrix logarithm, and even sines and ...

  9. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    this expression can be used to decompose higher powers as a linear function of lower powers, which in turn can be decomposed all the way down to a linear combination of and 1. The resulting recurrence relationships yield Fibonacci numbers as the linear coefficients : φ n = F n φ + F n − 1 . {\displaystyle \varphi ^{n}=F_{n}\varphi +F_{n-1}.}
