  2. Affine arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_arithmetic

    Affine arithmetic is potentially useful in every numeric problem where one needs guaranteed enclosures to smooth functions, such as solving systems of non-linear equations, analyzing dynamical systems, integrating functions, differential equations, etc. Applications include ray tracing, plotting curves, intersecting implicit and parametric ...

  3. Piecewise linear function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piecewise_linear_function

    The graph of this function is shown to the right. Since the graph of an affine(*) function is a line, the graph of a piecewise linear function consists of line segments and rays. The x values (in the above example −3, 0, and 3) where the slope changes are typically called breakpoints, changepoints, threshold values or knots. As in many ...

  4. Linear function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function

    In mathematics, the term linear function refers to two distinct but related notions: [1] In calculus and related areas, a linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line, that is, a polynomial function of degree zero or one. [2] For distinguishing such a linear function from the other concept, the term affine function is often used ...

  5. Multilinear polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multilinear_polynomial

    The resulting polynomial is not a linear function of the coordinates (its degree can be higher than 1), but it is a linear function of the fitted data values. The determinant, permanent and other immanants of a matrix are homogeneous multilinear polynomials in the elements of the matrix (and also multilinear forms in the rows or columns).

  6. Linear approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_approximation

    In mathematics, a linear approximation is an approximation of a general function using a linear function (more precisely, an affine function). They are widely used in the method of finite differences to produce first order methods for solving or approximating solutions to equations.

  7. Algebraic curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_curve

    An algebraic curve in the Euclidean plane is the set of the points whose coordinates are the solutions of a bivariate polynomial equation p(x, y) = 0.This equation is often called the implicit equation of the curve, in contrast to the curves that are the graph of a function defining explicitly y as a function of x.

  8. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  9. Affine combination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_combination

    See Affine space § Affine combinations and barycenter for the definition in this case. This concept is fundamental in Euclidean geometry and affine geometry , because the set of all affine combinations of a set of points forms the smallest affine space containing the points, exactly as the linear combinations of a set of vectors form their ...
