reduced discriminant
1Multiple discriminant analysis — For other uses of this acronym, see MDA (disambiguation). Multiple Discriminant Analysis (MDA) is a method for compressing a multivariate signal to yield a lower dimensional signal amenable to classification.[1] MDA is not directly used to… …
2Periodic continued fraction — In mathematics, an infinite periodic continued fraction is a continued fraction that can be placed in the form:x = a 0 + cfrac{1}{a 1 + cfrac{1}{a 2 + cfrac{ddots}{quadddotsquad a k + cfrac{1}{a {k+1} + cfrac{ddots}{quadddotsquad a {k+m 1} +… …

8Scale (social sciences) — In the social sciences, scaling is the process of measuring or ordering entities with respect to quantitative attributes or traits. For example, a scaling technique might involve estimating individuals levels of extraversion, or the perceived… …
9Hessian matrix — In mathematics, the Hessian matrix (or simply the Hessian) is the square matrix of second order partial derivatives of a function; that is, it describes the local curvature of a function of many variables. The Hessian matrix was developed in the… …
