31Finite element method — The finite element method (FEM) (sometimes referred to as finite element analysis) is a numerical technique for finding approximate solutions of partial differential equations (PDE) as well as of integral equations. The solution approach is based …
32Entropy estimation — Estimating the differential entropy of a system or process, given some observations, is useful in various science/engineering applications, such as Independent Component Analysis [Dinh Tuan Pham (2004) Fast algorithms for mutual information based …
33NOMINATE (scaling method) — NOMINATE W NOMINATE coordinates of members of the 111th House of Representatives. Inventors Keith T. Poole, University of Georgia …
34Gerber method — The Gerber Method is a primary and historic means of testing the fat content of milk and other substances. [cite web |url=http://www.coopersnuthouse.com/maclib/OilAssayDeterminationInMacadamia.html |title=An Analytical Assay for the Determination …
35Iterative Closest Point — (ICP) is an algorithm employed to match two clouds of points. This matching is used to reconstruct 3D surfaces from different scans, to localize robots and achieve optimal path planning (especially when wheel odometry is unreliable due to… …
36Group method of data handling — (GMDH) is a family of inductive algorithms for computer based mathematical modeling of multi parametric datasets that features fully automatic structural and parametric optimization of models. GMDH is used in such fields as data mining, knowledge …
37Boiling point — This article is about the boiling point of liquids. For other uses, see Boiling point (disambiguation). The boiling point of an element or a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the environmental pressure… …
38Numerical differentiation — is a technique of numerical analysis to produce an estimate of the derivative of a mathematical function or function subroutine using values from the function and perhaps other knowledge about the function. Contents 1 Finite difference formulae 1 …
39statistics — /steuh tis tiks/, n. 1. (used with a sing. v.) the science that deals with the collection, classification, analysis, and interpretation of numerical facts or data, and that, by use of mathematical theories of probability, imposes order and… …
40Maximum likelihood — In statistics, maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) is a method of estimating the parameters of a statistical model. When applied to a data set and given a statistical model, maximum likelihood estimation provides estimates for the model s… …
