  2. Multigrid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multigrid_method

    In view of the subspace correction framework, [11] BPX preconditioner is a parallel subspace correction method where as the classic V-cycle is a successive subspace correction method. The BPX-preconditioner is known to be naturally more parallel and in some applications more robust than the classic V-cycle multigrid method.

  3. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    Prism spectacles with a single prism perform a relative displacement of the two eyes, thereby correcting eso-, exo, hyper- or hypotropia. In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms , ambient lenses or performance glasses ) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent.

  4. Šidák correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Šidák_correction

    The Šidák correction is derived by assuming that the individual tests are independent. Let the significance threshold for each test be α 1 {\displaystyle \alpha _{1}} ; then the probability that at least one of the tests is significant under this threshold is (1 - the probability that none of them are significant).

  5. Shor's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shor's_algorithm

    The problem that we are trying to solve is: given an odd composite number, find its integer factors. To achieve this, Shor's algorithm consists of two parts: A classical reduction of the factoring problem to the problem of order-finding.

  6. Dispersion (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(optics)

    Their effects can be computed via numerical evaluation of Fourier transforms of the waveform, via integration of higher-order slowly varying envelope approximations, by a split-step method (which can use the exact dispersion relation rather than a Taylor series), or by direct simulation of the full Maxwell's equations rather than an approximate ...

  7. Trapezoidal rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_rule

    The trapezoidal rule is one of a family of formulas for numerical integration called Newton–Cotes formulas, of which the midpoint rule is similar to the trapezoid rule. Simpson's rule is another member of the same family, and in general has faster convergence than the trapezoidal rule for functions which are twice continuously differentiable ...

  8. Vincenty's formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincenty's_formulae

    Vincenty's goal was to express existing algorithms for geodesics on an ellipsoid in a form that minimized the program length (Vincenty 1975a). His unpublished report (1975b) mentions the use of a Wang 720 desk calculator, which had only a few kilobytes of memory.

  9. Gamma correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_correction

    [21] [22] [23] In many cases the gamma correction values for the primary colors are slightly different. Setting the color temperature or white point is the next step in monitor adjustment. Before gamma correction the desired gamma and color temperature should be set using the monitor controls.
