Save guides, add subjects and pick up where you left off with your BBC account. Quadratic graph lines are U- or Ո-shaped, which is called a parabola. A linear graph can be drawn using only three ...

An equation of the form \(y = mx + c\) where \(m\) and \(c\) are numbers, gives a straight line when values of \(x\) and corresponding values of \(y\) are plotted on a grid. A straight line is a ...

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 ...

For the Gaussian sequence model, we obtain nonasymptotic minimax rates of estimation of the linear, quadratic and the ℓ2-norm functionals on classes of sparse vectors and construct optimal estimators ...
