Hace 1 día · That is precisely what is done by linear regression, which was described in 1805 by French mathematician Adrien-Marie Legendre (Plackett, 1972). Many of the methods used today for machine learning involve much more computation, and allow the form of the model to be determined by the data (instead of specified by the analyst), but the essential feature of predicting y from other variables is ...
Hace 4 días · (1) is named after a French mathematician Adrien-Marie Legendre (1752--1833) who introduced the Legendre polynomials in 1782. Legendre's equation comes up in many physical situations involving spherical symmetry. Legendre Polynomials. Legendre's polynomial can be defined explicitly: Pn(x) = 1 2n ⌊ n / 2 ⌋ ∑ k = 0 ( − 1)k(n k)(2n − 2k n)xn − 2k,
Hace 3 días · Adrien-Marie Legendre (1752–1833) was the first to state the law of quadratic reciprocity. He also conjectured what amounts to the prime number theorem and Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions.
Hace 3 días · French mathematician Adrien-Marie Legendre proved in 1794 that π 2 is also irrational. In 1882, German mathematician Ferdinand von Lindemann proved that π is transcendental, confirming a conjecture made by both Legendre and Euler.
Hace 4 días · Correspondence with Legendre Germain engaged in an extensive correspondence with mathematician Adrien-Marie Legendre, seeking his guidance and feedback on her work. Despite initial skepticism, Legendre recognized Germain’s brilliance and became her mentor.
Hace 2 días · Cientista Da Semana. Carl Gustav Jakob Jacobi nasceu em 10 de dezembro de 1804, em uma família judia abastada de Potsdam, Prússia (atual Alemanha). Filho de um banqueiro, Carl cresceu com seus três irmãos sem quaisquer complicações financeiras; sua educação foi confiada a um tio por parte de mãe, que não tardou a reconhecer a ...
Hace 5 días · An arduous six-year survey led by such luminaries as Jean Delambre, Jacques-Dominique Cassini, Pierre Mechain, Adrien-Marie Legendre, and others to determine the arc of the meridian from Barcelona, Spain, to Dunkirk, France, eventually yielded a value of 39.37008 inches for the new unit to be called the metre, from Greek metron ...
