Positive-definite matrix — In linear algebra, a positive definite matrix is a matrix that in many ways is analogous to a positive real number. The notion is closely related to a positive definite symmetric bilinear form (or a sesquilinear form in the complex case). The… … Wikipedia
Concave function — In mathematics, a concave function is the negative of a convex function. A concave function is also synonymously called concave downwards, concave down, convex upwards, convex cap or upper convex. Contents 1 Definition 2 Properties 3 Examples … Wikipedia

Mercer's theorem — In mathematics, specifically functional analysis, Mercer s theorem is a representation of a symmetric positive definite function on a square as a sum of a convergent sequence of product functions. This theorem, presented in (Mercer 1909), is one… … Wikipedia
Variogram — In spatial statistics the theoretical variogram 2γ(x,y) is a function describing the degree of spatial dependence of a spatial random field or stochastic process Z(x). It is defined as the variance of the difference between field values at two… … Wikipedia

Optimal design — This article is about the topic in the design of experiments. For the topic in optimal control theory, see shape optimization. Gustav Elfving developed the optimal design of experiments, and so minimized surveyors need for theodolite measurements … Wikipedia
Complex normal distribution — In probability theory, the family of complex normal distributions consists of complex random variables whose real and imaginary parts are jointly normal.[1] The complex normal family has three parameters: location parameter μ, covariance matrix Γ … Wikipedia
Negative probability — In 1942, Paul Dirac wrote a paper The Physical Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics [1] where he introduced the concept of negative energies and negative probabilities: Negative energies and probabilities should not be considered as nonsense. They … Wikipedia
Singular value decomposition — Visualization of the SVD of a 2 dimensional, real shearing matrix M. First, we see the unit disc in blue together with the two canonical unit vectors. We then see the action of M, which distorts the disk to an ellipse. The SVD decomposes M into… … Wikipedia
