Featured
The Kelvin wake pattern
The simulated wake pattern behind an object moving at constant speed across a surface of water, first described by Lord Kelvin.
Linear least squares fitting of a two-dimensional data
Least squares fitting of a two-dimensional polynomial to a surface.
A shallow neural network for simple nonlinear classification
Classification problems are a broad class of machine learning applications devoted to assigning input data to a predefined category based on its features. If the boundary between the categories has a linear relationship to the input data, a simple logistic regression algorithm may do a good job. For more complex groupings, such as in classifying the points in the diagram below, a neural network can often give good results.
