L-moments are expectations of certain linear combinations of order statistics. They can be defined for any random variable whose mean exists and form the basis of a general theory which covers the ...

Computations that involve matrix algorithms are happening everywhere in the world at every moment in time, whether these be embedded in the training of neural networks in data science, in computer ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Let M(x) be a regression function which has a maximum at the unknown point θ. M(x) is itself unknown to the statistician who, however, can ...

Immersive Math was developed over the span of three years by a three-man team with academic backgrounds in mathematics, computer graphics, and image coding. The team, who worked on the project on a ...

A function machine is a way of writing rules using a flow diagram. The equation \(3j - 6 = 9\) can be shown on a function machine by writing out the functions that have been applied to \(j\) in the ...

A standard digital camera used in a car for stuff like emergency braking has a perceptual latency of a hair above 20 milliseconds. That’s just the time needed for a camera to transform the photons ...

In the fall of 2014, Andrew Wilson took a front-row seat in Ken Ono’s number-theory class at Emory University, in Atlanta. Wilson was not only double-majoring in applied math and physics; he was also ...
