The algorithm uses an iterative search to find the piecewise linear function ... N positive integer number of linear pieces in PW approximation. delta desired accuracy in the errors of the iterative ...

Linear approximation is a method used to estimate the value of a function near a given point using the tangent line at that point. This technique simplifies complex functions into a linear form ...

The early methods utilized approximation from finite-dimensional linear spaces. In the beginning, these were typically spaces of polynomials, both algebraic and trigonometric. It was noted shortly ...

Abstract: Transcendental functions are commonly used in many fields such as nonlinear functions of artificial neural networks (ANNs). Due to nonlinearity of these functions, hardware implementation of ...

Abstract: The k-error linear complexity of a periodic sequence s over a field K and with period N is the minimum linear complexity that s can have after changing at ...

“The statistician knows...that in nature there never was a normal distribution, there never was a straight line, yet with normal and linear assumptions, known to be false, he can often derive ...
