  2. Nonstandard analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonstandard_analysis

    The key to our method is provided by the detailed analysis of the relation between mathematical languages and mathematical structures which lies at the bottom of contemporary model theory. In 1973, intuitionist Arend Heyting praised nonstandard analysis as "a standard model of important mathematical research". [7]

  3. Agnostic (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnostic_(data)

    Devices and programs [6] can become more data-agnostic by using a generic storage format to create, read, update and delete files. Formats like XML and JSON can store information in a data agnostic manner. For example, XML is data agnostic in that it can save any type of information. However, if you use Data Transform Definitions (DTD) or XML ...

  4. Influence of nonstandard analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influence_of_nonstandard...

    "Radically elementary probability theory" of Edward Nelson combines the discrete and the continuous theory through the infinitesimal approach. [citation needed] [1] The model-theoretical approach of nonstandard analysis together with Loeb measure theory allows one to define Brownian motion as a hyperfinite random walk, obviating the need for cumbersome measure-theoretic developments.

  5. Nonparametric statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonparametric_statistics

    Kernel density estimation is another method to estimate a probability distribution. Nonparametric regression and semiparametric regression methods have been developed based on kernels, splines, and wavelets. Data envelopment analysis provides efficiency coefficients similar to those obtained by multivariate analysis without any distributional ...

  6. Nonstandard calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonstandard_calculus

    In mathematics, nonstandard calculus is the modern application of infinitesimals, in the sense of nonstandard analysis, to infinitesimal calculus.It provides a rigorous justification for some arguments in calculus that were previously considered merely heuristic.

  7. Criticism of nonstandard analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_nonstandard...

    Also nonstandard analysis as developed is not the only candidate to fulfill the aims of a theory of infinitesimals (see Smooth infinitesimal analysis). Philip J. Davis wrote, in a book review of Left Back: A Century of Failed School Reforms [3] by Diane Ravitch: [4] There was the nonstandard analysis movement for teaching elementary calculus.

  8. Grey relational analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_relational_analysis

    Grey relational analysis (GRA) was developed by Deng Julong of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. It is one of the most widely used models of grey system theory. GRA uses a specific concept of information. It defines situations with no information as black, and those with perfect information as white.

  9. Nondeterministic algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_algorithm

    The performance of such an algorithm is often measured probabilistically, for instance using an analysis of its expected time. In computational complexity theory, nondeterminism is often modeled using an explicit mechanism for making a nondeterministic choice, such as in a nondeterministic Turing machine.
