Mathematics of Computation, Vol. 84, No. 294 (JULY 2015), pp. 1835-1860 (26 pages) The Padé approximation has a long and rich history of theory and application and is known to produce excellent local ...

Function approximation, a central theme in numerical analysis and applied mathematics, seeks to represent complex functions through simpler or more computationally tractable forms. In this context, ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Gaussian process models have been widely used in spatial statistics but face tremendous computational challenges for very large data sets. The ...

The FD= and FDHESSIAN= options specify the use of finite difference approximations of the derivatives. The FD= option specifies that all derivatives are approximated using function evaluations, and ...

The circumference of a sphere is measured to be 24 cm, with a possible error of 0.25 cm. Use the differential \(dV\) to estimate the maximum error in the calculated ...

A compound Poisson distribution is the sum of independent and identically distributed random variables over a count variable that follows a Poisson distribution. Generally, this distribution is not ...
