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, ...

Two near minimax norms for polynomial approximation are presented. They are designed for approximation of both a function and its first derivative uniformly by polynomials over a given finite interval ...

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 area \(A\) of a square of side length \(s\) is \(A=s^2\text{.}\) Suppose \(s\) increases by an amount \(\Delta s=ds\text{.}\) Draw a square and then illustrate ...
