  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. Pattern search (optimization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_search_(optimization)

    Pattern search (also known as direct search, derivative-free search, or black-box search) is a family of numerical optimization methods that does not require a gradient. As a result, it can be used on functions that are not continuous or differentiable. One such pattern search method is "convergence" (see below), which is based on the theory of ...

  4. Bloodstain pattern analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloodstain_pattern_analysis

    Category. v. t. e. Bloodstain pattern analysis ( BPA) is a forensic discipline focused on analyzing bloodstains left at known, or suspected crime scenes through visual pattern recognition and physics-based assessments. This is done with the purpose of drawing inferences about the nature, timing and other details of the crime. [ 1]

    There are more examples of AGA variants: Successive zooming method is an early example of improving convergence. [25] In CAGA (clustering-based adaptive genetic algorithm), [ 26 ] through the use of clustering analysis to judge the optimization states of the population, the adjustment of pc and pm depends on these optimization states.

  6. Convergent validity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_validity

    Convergent validity in the behavioral sciences refers to the degree to which two measures that theoretically should be related, are in fact related. [ 1] Convergent validity, along with discriminant validity, is a subtype of construct validity. Convergent validity can be established if two similar constructs correspond with one another, while ...

  7. Convergence research - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_research

    Convergence research is generally inspired by the need to address a specific challenge or opportunity, whether it arises from deep scientific questions or pressing societal needs. Deep integration across disciplines. As experts from different disciplines pursue common research challenges, their knowledge, theories, methods, data, research ...

  8. Likelihood-ratio test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood-ratio_test

    Likelihood-ratio test. In statistics, the likelihood-ratio test is a hypothesis test that involves comparing the goodness of fit of two competing statistical models, typically one found by maximization over the entire parameter space and another found after imposing some constraint, based on the ratio of their likelihoods.

  9. Cauchy's convergence test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy's_convergence_test

    Cauchy's convergence test. The Cauchy convergence test is a method used to test infinite series for convergence. It relies on bounding sums of terms in the series. This convergence criterion is named after Augustin-Louis Cauchy who published it in his textbook Cours d'Analyse 1821. [1]
