“A curved surface is said to possess continuous curvature at one of its points A, if the directions of all the straight lines drawn from A to points of the surface at an infinitely small distance from A are deflected infinitely little from one and the same plane passing through A” (...
How/why is dimensional analysis useful? Use examples of several non-dimensional numbers to illustrate the importance. Which conditions are not required for an object to satisfy the third equation of motion? What is the difference between the dimensional ...
A key finding of the concept was the benefit of diversification resulting from the curvature of the efficient frontier. The curvature is integral in revealing how diversification improves the portfolio's risk/reward profile. It also reveals that there is a diminishing marginal return to risk. Import...
As they say, “Don’t bury the lead”. This is the lead…learn it, know it, live it Except for the left photo being in color, these two photos are nearly identical. If you’re using Afocal for image reduction,this is what you want. To use a blackjack analogy, this is a 21. In...
What I’ve concluded is that one needs to anchor it in actual things in the world. Geography. Video. Genomics. Yes, there are principles to explain. But they need practical context to make them useful, or even understandable. And what I’m finding is that framing everything computationally...

the objection to such a concept better than Sir Isaac Newton: “That one body may act upon another at a distance through a vacuum, without the mediation of any thing else, by and through which their action and force may be conveyed from one to the other, is to me so great an ...
Reason given is that one needs a cer-tain degree of "generalization" in order to keep complexity within bounds and end up with reasonable representations. Notice that there is a vicious circularity in the notion that an edge detector detects edges, whereas edges are what edge detectors detect....
