    Multimedia. Multimedia is a form of communication that uses a combination of different content forms, such as writing, audio, images, animations, or video, into a single interactive presentation, in contrast to traditional mass media, such as printed material or audio recordings, which feature little to no interaction between users.

    v. t. e. Information theory is the mathematical study of the quantification, storage, and communication of information. [1] The field was originally established by the works of Harry Nyquist and Ralph Hartley, in the 1920s, and Claude Shannon in the 1940s. [2] : vii The field, in applied mathematics, is at the intersection of probability theory ...

    Applications. Mathematical visualization is used throughout mathematics, particularly in the fields of geometry and analysis. Notable examples include plane curves, space curves, polyhedra, ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations (particularly numerical solutions, as in fluid dynamics or minimal surfaces such as soap ...

  7. Language of mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_of_mathematics

    Language of mathematics. The language of mathematics or mathematical language is an extension of the natural language (for example English) that is used in mathematics and in science for expressing results ( scientific laws, theorems, proofs, logical deductions, etc.) with concision, precision and unambiguity.

  8. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    The product of two measurements (or physical quantities) is a new type of measurement, usually with a derived unit. For example, multiplying the lengths (in meters or feet) of the two sides of a rectangle gives its area (in square meters or square feet). Such a product is the subject of dimensional analysis .

  9. Inverse kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_kinematics

    In computer animation and robotics, inverse kinematics is the mathematical process of calculating the variable joint parameters needed to place the end of a kinematic chain, such as a robot manipulator or animation character's skeleton, in a given position and orientation relative to the start of the chain. Given joint parameters, the position ...
