Six non-linear growth functions were fitted to tree height-diameter data of ten conifer species collected in the inland Northwest of the United States. The data sets represented a wide range of tree ...

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 ...

This paper reviews three basic methods of non-linear least squares estimation and the best known modifications to the popular Gauss-Newton procedure. With regard to the Gauss-Newton procedure the ...

However, this cannot easily be achieved whilst retaining the conventional non-linear transfer functions, known as gamma curves, which were designed for CRT displays.

This way, each layer is composed of functions from the previous layer (something like h (f (g (x)))). It has been shown that through this composition, we can learn any non-linear complex function.
