I've been grading calculus exams this week, and even though my students did quite well overall there were a couple of errors that I see every semester. Errors that make mathematicians' heads explode.

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 13, No. 1 (Mar., 1976), pp. 145-154 (10 pages) A numerically stable form of an algorithm that is closely related to the work of Gill and Murray [5] and Conn [3 ...

This is the second post (here’s the first one) about an approach to introducing the derivative to calculus students that is counter to what I’ve seen in textbooks and other traditional treatments of ...

This paper presents three algorithms for solving linear programming problems in which some or all of the objective function coefficients are specified in terms of intervals. Which algorithm is ...

A prolific author of technical articles and books, Christophe P. Basso (ON Semiconductor, Toulouse, France) has written a new book, Linear Circuit Transfer Functions—An Introduction to Fast Analytical ...

Businesspeople need to demand more from machine learning so they can connect data scientists’ work to relevant action. This requires basic machine learning literacy — what kinds of problems can ...
