Such functions are called linear, for reasons that I'll explain soon enough (well, we generally want another condition for linear functions involving scalar multiples of the variable, but I'll ...

Getting an all-optical AI to handle non-linear math Instead of sensing photons and processing the results, why not process the photons?

You could use a computer to fit an exponential function to the data and measure how well it fits. But how about just turning an exponential function into a linear function?

It only makes sense. I did linear regression in google docs and I did it for python. But what if you neither of those? Can you do it by hand? Why yes. Suppose I take the same data from the pylab ...

Early Greek mathematician Thymaridas of Paros linked number theory, cosmic harmony, and linear equations, pioneering algebraic thinking.

Mixed linear models are assumed in most animal breeding applications. Convenient methods for computing BLUE of the estimable linear functions of the fixed elements of the model and for computing best ...

Asymptotic expansions of the distributions of the linear and the quadratic discriminant functions are derived. The expected misclassification probabilities of these two functions are compared when the ...
