Thanks to these abilities, they can already topple complex linear differential equations exponentially faster than classical machines. Researchers have long hoped they could similarly tame nonlinear ...

This article reviews work on the planning of experiments with response functions nonlinear in some parameters. Apart from older work on dilution series experiments and quantal bioassays, this field is ...

An algorithm is presented for nonlinear least squares estimation in which the parameters to be estimated can be regarded as all nonlinear (the traditional approach) or reclassified as linear-nonlinear ...

Non-linear physics is the study of systems where the output is not directly proportional to the input. Unlike linear systems, which follow simple, predictable relationships, non-linear systems exhibit ...

For this, you also need non-linear thresholding functions that adjust the weights between the layers of neurons.

While I do spend lots of time pushing the idea of linear approximations on my students, we do need nonlinear functions to describe most interesting physical phenomena.
