  2. Fermat's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_factorization_method

    Fermat's method works best when there is a factor near the square-root of N. If the approximate ratio of two factors ( d / c {\displaystyle d/c} ) is known, then a rational number v / u {\displaystyle v/u} can be picked near that value.

  3. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    The Euclidean algorithm calculates the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two natural numbers a and b.The greatest common divisor g is the largest natural number that divides both a and b without leaving a remainder.

  4. Regula falsi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regula_falsi

    Regula falsi is a method for finding the roots of a function by using successive approximations. Learn more about its history, algorithm and applications on Wikipedia.

  5. Design of experiments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_of_experiments

    An experimental design or randomized clinical trial requires careful consideration of several factors before actually doing the experiment. [32] An experimental design is the laying out of a detailed experimental plan in advance of doing the experiment.

  6. Daubert standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daubert_standard

    In United States federal law, the Daubert standard is a rule of evidence regarding the admissibility of expert witness testimony.A party may raise a Daubert motion, a special motion in limine raised before or during trial, to exclude the presentation of unqualified evidence to the jury.

  7. Primality test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primality_test

    A primality test is an algorithm for determining whether an input number is prime.Among other fields of mathematics, it is used for cryptography.Unlike integer factorization, primality tests do not generally give prime factors, only stating whether the input number is prime or not.

  8. Human error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_error

    A statue in Hartlepool, England, commemorating the "Hartlepool monkey", a primate who was mistaken by locals to be a French soldier and killed.. Some researchers have argued that the dichotomy of human actions as "correct" or "incorrect" is a harmful oversimplification of a complex phenomenon.

  9. Linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_regression

    An apparently random scatter of points about the horizontal midline at 0 is ideal, but cannot rule out certain kinds of violations such as autocorrelation in the errors or their correlation with one or more covariates. Independence of errors. This assumes that the errors of the response variables are uncorrelated with each other.
