  2. Lagrange multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_multiplier

    The Lagrange multiplier theorem states that at any local maximum (or minimum) of the function evaluated under the equality constraints, if constraint qualification applies (explained below), then the gradient of the function (at that point) can be expressed as a linear combination of the gradients of the constraints (at that point), with the ...

  3. Convex optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_optimization

    In LP, the objective and constraint functions are all linear. Quadratic programming are the next-simplest. In QP, the constraints are all linear, but the objective may be a convex quadratic function. Second order cone programming are more general. Semidefinite programming are more general. Conic optimization are even more general - see figure ...

  4. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

  5. Karush–Kuhn–Tucker conditions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karush–Kuhn–Tucker...

    In mathematical optimization, the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, also known as the Kuhn–Tucker conditions, are first derivative tests (sometimes called first-order necessary conditions) for a solution in nonlinear programming to be optimal, provided that some regularity conditions are satisfied.

  6. Quadratic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_programming

    A simple way to see this is to consider the non-convex quadratic constraint x i 2 = x i. This constraint is equivalent to requiring that x i is in {0,1}, that is, x i is a binary integer variable. Therefore, such constraints can be used to model any integer program with binary variables, which is known to be NP-hard.

  7. Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenberg–Marquardt...

    The primary application of the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm is in the least-squares curve fitting problem: given a set of empirical pairs (,) of independent and dependent variables, find the parameters ⁠ ⁠ of the model curve (,) so that the sum of the squares of the deviations () is minimized:

  8. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    S-random interleaver (where the interleaver is a known random permutation with the constraint that no input symbols within distance S appear within a distance of S in the output). [25] a contention-free quadratic permutation polynomial (QPP). [26] An example of use is in the 3GPP Long Term Evolution mobile telecommunication standard. [27]

  9. Constraint satisfaction problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_satisfaction...

    Constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) are mathematical questions defined as a set of objects whose state must satisfy a number of constraints or limitations. CSPs represent the entities in a problem as a homogeneous collection of finite constraints over variables , which is solved by constraint satisfaction methods.
