A trust region method has a region around the current search point, where the quadratic model for "local minimization" is "trusted" to be correct and steps are chosen to stay ...

MousePosition[] gives the current mouse position in the notebook front end. MousePosition["coords"] gives the mouse position with respect to the specified coordinate ...

Throw[value] stops evaluation and returns value as the value of the nearest enclosing Catch. Throw[value, tag] is caught only by Catch[expr, form] where form is a pattern ...

Mathematica treats equations as logical statements. If you type in an equation like x^2+3x==2, Mathematica interprets this as a logical statement which asserts that x^2+3x is ...

SkellamDistribution[\[Mu]_1, \[Mu]_2] represents a Skellam distribution with shape parameters \[Mu]_1 and \[Mu]_2.

One of the most basic features of GUIKit is loading and executing an existing user interface application. This can be accomplished in one step in either a modal or modeless ...

Mathematica 's differential equation solving functions can be applied to many different classes of differential equations, automatically selecting the appropriate algorithms ...

An important subset of optimization problems is constrained nonlinear optimization, where the function is not linear and the parameter values are constrained to certain ...
