  2. Stride of an array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stride_of_an_array

    In computer programming, the stride of an array (also referred to as increment, pitch or step size) is the number of locations in memory between beginnings of successive array elements, measured in bytes or in units of the size of the array's elements. The stride cannot be smaller than the element size but can be larger, indicating extra space ...

  3. First-fit-decreasing bin packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-fit-decreasing_bin...

    In short: FFD orders the items by descending size, and then calls first-fit bin packing. An equivalent description of the FFD algorithm is as follows. Order the items from largest to smallest. While there are remaining items: Open a new empty bin. For each item from largest to smallest: If it can fit into the current bin, insert it.

  4. Adaptive step size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_step_size

    Let us now apply Euler's method again with a different step size to generate a second approximation to y(t n+1). We get a second solution, which we label with a (). Take the new step size to be one half of the original step size, and apply two steps of Euler's method. This second solution is presumably more accurate.

  5. Line search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_search

    In optimization, line search is a basic iterative approach to find a local minimum of an objective function:.It first finds a descent direction along which the objective function will be reduced, and then computes a step size that determines how far should move along that direction.

  6. Barzilai-Borwein method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barzilai-Borwein_method

    The short BB step size is same as a linearized minimum-residual step. BB applies the step sizes upon the forward direction vector for the next iterate, instead of the prior direction vector as if for another line-search step. Barzilai and Borwein proved their method converges R-superlinearly for quadratic minimization in two dimensions.

  7. Coordinate descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_descent

    Coordinate descent is an optimization algorithm that successively minimizes along coordinate directions to find the minimum of a function.At each iteration, the algorithm determines a coordinate or coordinate block via a coordinate selection rule, then exactly or inexactly minimizes over the corresponding coordinate hyperplane while fixing all other coordinates or coordinate blocks.

    Malcolm X was assassinated in 1965 when gunmen opened fire while he gave a speech in New York. A new lawsuit accuses the government of conspiracy.

  9. Backtracking line search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backtracking_line_search

    The method involves starting with a relatively large estimate of the step size for movement along the line search direction, and iteratively shrinking the step size (i.e., "backtracking") until a decrease of the objective function is observed that adequately corresponds to the amount of decrease that is expected, based on the step size and the ...
