  2. Goal seeking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goal_seeking

    Basic goal seeking functionality is built into most modern spreadsheet packages such as Microsoft Excel. According to O'Brien and Marakas, [1] optimization analysis is a more complex extension of goal-seeking analysis. Instead of setting a specific target value for a variable, the goal is to find the optimum value for one or more target ...

  3. Morris method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_method

    In applied statistics, the Morris method for global sensitivity analysis is a so-called one-factor-at-a-time method, meaning that in each run only one input parameter is given a new value. It facilitates a global sensitivity analysis by making a number r {\displaystyle r} of local changes at different points x ( 1 → r ) {\displaystyle x(1 ...

  4. Search problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_problem

    As search proceeds, the frontier expands into the unexplored nodes until a goal node is encountered. The way in which the frontier is expanded defines the search strategy. [1] Input: a graph, a set of start nodes, Boolean procedure goal(n) that tests if n is a goal node.

  5. Goal programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goal_programming

    Goal programming is a branch of multiobjective optimization, which in turn is a branch of multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). It can be thought of as an extension or generalisation of linear programming to handle multiple, normally conflicting objective measures. Each of these measures is given a goal or target value to be achieved.

  6. Sensitivity analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_analysis

    moving one input variable, keeping others at their baseline (nominal) values, then, returning the variable to its nominal value, then repeating for each of the other inputs in the same way. Sensitivity may then be measured by monitoring changes in the output, e.g. by partial derivatives or linear regression. This appears a logical approach as ...

  7. Backward chaining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_chaining

    An inference engine using backward chaining would search the inference rules until it finds one with a consequent (Then clause) that matches a desired goal. If the antecedent (If clause) of that rule is not known to be true, then it is added to the list of goals (for one's goal to be confirmed one must also provide data that confirms this new ...

  9. Heuristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heuristic

    Gigerenzer & Gaissmaier (2011) state that sub-sets of strategy include heuristics, regression analysis, and Bayesian inference. [14]A heuristic is a strategy that ignores part of the information, with the goal of making decisions more quickly, frugally, and/or accurately than more complex methods (Gigerenzer and Gaissmaier [2011], p. 454; see also Todd et al. [2012], p. 7).
