  2. Convergence tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_tests

    Raabe–Duhamel's test. Let { an } be a sequence of positive numbers. Define. If. exists there are three possibilities: if L > 1 the series converges (this includes the case L = ∞) if L < 1 the series diverges. and if L = 1 the test is inconclusive. An alternative formulation of this test is as follows.

  3. Kolmogorov–Smirnov test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolmogorov–Smirnov_test

    Illustration of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistic. The red line is a model CDF, the blue line is an empirical CDF, and the black arrow is the KS statistic.. Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (K–S test or KS test) is a nonparametric test of the equality of continuous (or discontinuous, see Section 2.2), one-dimensional probability distributions that can be used to test whether a sample came from a ...

  4. Machine epsilon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_epsilon

    The IEEE standard does not define the terms machine epsilon and unit roundoff, so differing definitions of these terms are in use, which can cause some confusion.. The formal definition for machine epsilon is the one used by Prof. James Demmel in lecture scripts, [4] the LAPACK linear algebra package, [5] numerics research papers [6] and some scientific computing software. [7]

  5. Test functions for optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_functions_for...

    Convergence rate. Precision. Robustness. General performance. Here some test functions are presented with the aim of giving an idea about the different situations that optimization algorithms have to face when coping with these kinds of problems. In the first part, some objective functions for single-objective optimization cases are presented.

  6. Rate of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_convergence

    t. e. In mathematical analysis, particularly numerical analysis, the rate of convergence and order of convergence of a sequence that converges to a limit are any of several characterizations of how quickly that sequence approaches its limit. These are broadly divided into rates and orders of convergence that describe how quickly a sequence ...

  7. Golden-section search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden-section_search

    The golden-section search is a technique for finding an extremum (minimum or maximum) of a function inside a specified interval. For a strictly unimodal function with an extremum inside the interval, it will find that extremum, while for an interval containing multiple extrema (possibly including the interval boundaries), it will converge to one of them.

  8. Chambolle-Pock algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chambolle-Pock_algorithm

    The Chambolle-Pock algorithm is specifically designed to efficiently solve convex optimization problems that involve the minimization of a non-smooth cost function composed of a data fidelity term and a regularization term. [ 1] This is a typical configuration that commonly arises in ill-posed imaging inverse problems such as image ...

  9. State observer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_observer

    In control theory, a state observer or state estimator is a system that provides an estimate of the internal state of a given real system, from measurements of the input and output of the real system. It is typically computer-implemented, and provides the basis of many practical applications. Knowing the system state is necessary to solve many ...
