  3. Condition number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condition_number

    Condition numbers can also be defined for nonlinear functions, and can be computed using calculus.The condition number varies with the point; in some cases one can use the maximum (or supremum) condition number over the domain of the function or domain of the question as an overall condition number, while in other cases the condition number at a particular point is of more interest.

  4. Leading-order term - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading-order_term

    Consider the equation y = x 3 + 5x + 0.1. For five different values of x , the table shows the sizes of the four terms in this equation, and which terms are leading-order. As x increases further, the leading-order terms stay as x 3 and y , but as x decreases and then becomes more and more negative, which terms are leading-order again changes.

  5. Error analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_analysis_(mathematics)

    The analysis of errors computed using the global positioning system is important for understanding how GPS works, and for knowing what magnitude errors should be expected.

  6. Linear recurrence with constant coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_recurrence_with...

    In mathematics (including combinatorics, linear algebra, and dynamical systems), a linear recurrence with constant coefficients [1]: ch. 17 [2]: ch. 10 (also known as a linear recurrence relation or linear difference equation) sets equal to 0 a polynomial that is linear in the various iterates of a variable—that is, in the values of the elements of a sequence.

  7. Reed–Solomon error correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed–Solomon_error...

    The Reed–Solomon code is a [n, k, n − k + 1] code; in other words, it is a linear block code of length n (over F) with dimension k and minimum Hamming distance = + The Reed–Solomon code is optimal in the sense that the minimum distance has the maximum value possible for a linear code of size ( n , k ); this is known as the Singleton bound .

  8. LAPACK - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAPACK

    aaa is a one- to three-letter code describing the actual algorithm implemented in the subroutine, e.g. SV denotes a subroutine to solve linear system, while R denotes a rank-1 update. For example, the subroutine to solve a linear system with a general (non-structured) matrix using real double-precision arithmetic is called DGESV . [ 2 ] : "

  9. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    The conjugate gradient method can also be used to solve unconstrained optimization problems such as energy minimization. It is commonly attributed to Magnus Hestenes and Eduard Stiefel, [1] [2] who programmed it on the Z4, [3] and extensively researched it. [4] [5] The biconjugate gradient method provides a generalization to non-symmetric matrices.
