Algorithme d'apprentissage incrémentalEn informatique, un algorithme d'apprentissage incrémental ou incrémentiel est un algorithme d'apprentissage qui a la particularité d'être online, c'est-à-dire qui apprend à partir de données reçues au fur et à mesure du temps. À chaque incrément il reçoit des données d'entrées et un résultat, l'algorithme calcule alors une amélioration du calcul fait pour prédire le résultat à partir des données d'entrées.
Cost curveIn economics, a cost curve is a graph of the costs of production as a function of total quantity produced. In a free market economy, productively efficient firms optimize their production process by minimizing cost consistent with each possible level of production, and the result is a cost curve. Profit-maximizing firms use cost curves to decide output quantities. There are various types of cost curves, all related to each other, including total and average cost curves; marginal ("for each additional unit") cost curves, which are equal to the differential of the total cost curves; and variable cost curves.
Arf invariantIn mathematics, the Arf invariant of a nonsingular quadratic form over a field of characteristic 2 was defined by Turkish mathematician when he started the systematic study of quadratic forms over arbitrary fields of characteristic 2. The Arf invariant is the substitute, in characteristic 2, for the discriminant for quadratic forms in characteristic not 2. Arf used his invariant, among others, in his endeavor to classify quadratic forms in characteristic 2.
