  2. 2D computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2D_computer_graphics

    Such non-standard orientations are rarely used in mathematics but are common in 2D computer graphics, which often have the origin in the top left corner and the y-axis down the screen or page. [2] See below for other alternative conventions which may change the sense of the rotation produced by a rotation matrix.

  3. Recursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion

    In mathematics and computer science, a class of objects or methods exhibits recursive behavior when it can be defined by two properties: A simple base case (or cases) — a terminating scenario that does not use recursion to produce an answer; A recursive step — a set of rules that reduces all successive cases toward the base case.

  4. Image scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_scaling

    Image scaling can be interpreted as a form of image resampling or image reconstruction from the view of the Nyquist sampling theorem.According to the theorem, downsampling to a smaller image from a higher-resolution original can only be carried out after applying a suitable 2D anti-aliasing filter to prevent aliasing artifacts.

  5. Addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition

    In algebra, another area of mathematics, addition can also be performed on abstract objects such as vectors, matrices, subspaces and subgroups. Addition has several important properties. It is commutative , meaning that the order of the operands does not matter, and it is associative , meaning that when one adds more than two numbers, the order ...

  6. 3D computer graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_computer_graphics

    3D computer graphics, sometimes called CGI, 3-D-CGI or three-dimensional computer graphics, are graphics that use a three-dimensional representation of geometric data (often Cartesian) that is stored in the computer for the purposes of performing calculations and rendering digital images, usually 2D images but sometimes 3D images.
