Ray Solomonoff (July 25, 1926 – December 7, 2009) [1] [2] was an American mathematician who invented algorithmic probability, [3] his General Theory of Inductive Inference (also known as Universal Inductive Inference), [4] and was a founder of algorithmic information theory. [5]
Given a line and any point A on it, we may consider A as decomposing this line into two parts. Each such part is called a ray and the point A is called its initial point. It is also known as half-line (sometimes, a half-axis if it plays a distinct role, e.g., as part of a coordinate axis). It is a one-dimensional half-space. The point A is ...
Ray tracing is a process based on computational mathematics. The fields of mathematics and computing intersect both in computer science, the study of algorithms and data structures, and in scientific computing, the study of algorithmic methods for solving problems in mathematics, science, and engineering. List of algorithm general topics
Category theory is a unifying theory of mathematics that was initially developed in the second half of the 20th century. [4] In this respect, it is an alternative and complement to set theory. A key theme from the "categorical" point of view is that mathematics requires not only certain kinds of objects ( Lie groups , Banach spaces , etc.) but ...
A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula.
This solution was known to Bays (1917) which was found again from a different direction by Earl Kramer and Dale Mesner in a 1974 paper titled Intersections Among Steiner Systems (J Combinatorial Theory, Vol 16 pp 273-285). There can indeed be 7 disjoint S(2,3,9) systems, and all such sets of 7 fall into two non-isomorphic categories of sizes ...
The term light field was coined by Andrey Gershun in a classic 1936 paper on the radiometric properties of light in three-dimensional space. The term "radiance field" may also be used to refer to similar, or identical [2] concepts. The term is used in modern research such as neural radiance fields
The widely accepted interpretation of, e.g. the Poggendorff and Hering illusions as manifestation of expansion of acute angles at line intersections, is an example of successful implementation of a "bottom-up," physiological explanation of a geometrical–optical illusion.
