Asymptotic expansions of the distributions of the linear and the quadratic discriminant functions are derived. The expected misclassification probabilities of these two functions are compared when the ...

Graphs of quadratic functions can be used to solve equations. Example Draw the graph of y = 2 x 2 + 2 x 4 for values of –3 to 2. Use the graph to solve the equation y = 2 x 2 + 2 x 4. Solution ...

Their method possesses global and locally quadratic convergence, and it is free of the Maratos effect. The feasibility of subproblems in their method is enforced by switching between the linear and ...
