The document discusses general partial derivatives and the chain rule. It defines partial derivatives for functions of multiple variables as holding all other variables constant. It provides an example function z = f(v,w,x,y) and explains how to compute the partial derivatives dz/dx, dz/dy by treating the other variables as constants. The chain rule is introduced for functions of composite variables, where the derivative dz/dt is the sum of the products of partial derivatives along all paths from z to the variable t. An example using this chain rule is worked out in detail. Variable trees are presented as a way to visualize the relationships between composite variables in a chain.
The document defines relative and absolute maxima and minima for functions z=f(x,y). A relative maximum occurs when f(a,b) is greater than f(x,y) within a neighborhood circle of (a,b). An absolute maximum occurs when f(a,b) is greater than f(x,y) over the entire domain. Similarly for minima with the inequalities reversed. Extrema refer to maxima and minima. For a continuous function over a closed and bounded domain, absolute extrema exist and occur either in the interior or on the boundary. Examples find and classify extrema of functions.
1) The document provides definitions and formulas for calculating derivatives, including the derivative of a function at a point, the derivative function, and common derivatives of basic functions like polynomials, exponentials, logarithms, trigonometric functions, and inverse trigonometric functions.
2) Examples are given of calculating derivatives using the definition of the derivative, for functions like f(x)=3x^2, f(x)=x+1, and f(x)=1/x.
3) Rules are listed for calculating the derivatives of sums, products, quotients of functions using properties of derivatives.
The document defines two types of nonrectangular domains for double integrals. Type 1 is bounded by continuous functions y=f(x) and y=g(x) with a < x < b. Type 2 is bounded by continuous functions x=f(y) and x=g(y) with c < y < d. It provides an example of evaluating a double integral over a Type 1 domain bounded by y=x and y=2x-x^2, finding the volume over the domain to be 120/7. It also discusses describing the domains and the order of integration depends on the type of domain.
The document discusses limits and derivatives. It explains that in calculating the derivative of f(x)=x^2 - 2x + 2, the slope formula was simplified. As h approaches 0, the chords slide towards the tangent line, so the slope at (x,f(x)) is 2x-2. It then provides definitions and explanations for what it means for a variable to approach 0 from the right, left, or in general, to clarify the procedure of obtaining slopes using limits.
1. A differential equation is an equation that relates an unknown function with some of its derivatives. The document provides a step-by-step example of solving a differential equation to find the xy-equation of a curve with a given gradient condition.
2. The key steps are: (1) write the derivative term as a fraction, (2) integrate both sides, (3) apply the initial condition to determine the constant term, (4) write the final function relationship.
3. Common types of differential equations discussed are separable first order equations, where the derivative terms can be isolated by dividing both sides.
The document discusses double integrals and their use in calculating volumes. It explains that double integrals allow calculating the volume of a solid over a domain D by integrating the height function f(x,y) over D. Three methods are provided: integrating cross-sectional areas A(x) or A(y) with respect to x or y; directly using the fundamental theorem of calculus by partitioning D into subrectangles and summing the approximate volumes; and writing the calculation as a double integral of f(x,y) over D.

The document defines slope as the ratio of the rise (change in y-values) to the run (change in x-values) between two points on a line. It provides the exact formula for calculating slope as the change in y-values divided by the change in x-values. Examples are given to demonstrate calculating the slopes of various lines, with positive slopes for lines passing through Quadrants I and III and negative slopes for lines passing through Quadrants II and IV.
Using implicit differentiation we can treat relations which are not quite functions like they were functions. In particular, we can find the slopes of lines tangent to curves which are not graphs of functions.
To summarize:
1) To find the derivative of an implicit function y=y(x) defined by an equation F(x,y)=0, take the derivative of both sides with respect to x.
2) This will give a new equation involving x, y, and dy/dx that can be solved for dy/dx.
3) The examples show applying this process to find derivatives and tangent lines for various implicit equations.

This document contains a tutorial on calculating limits, derivatives, and slopes from graphs and equations. It works through multiple examples of finding:
1) The limit of a function as x approaches a number from the left and right, and determining if the limit exists.

The document explains the relevant formulas and step-by-step workings through examples to demonstrate how to apply the concepts.
The document discusses the difference quotient formula for calculating the slope between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a function y=f(x). It shows that the slope m is equal to (f(x+h)-f(x))/h, where h is the difference between x1 and x2. This "difference quotient" formula allows slopes to be calculated from the values of a function at two nearby points. Examples are given of simplifying the difference quotient for quadratic and rational functions.

The document discusses the chain rule and how to use it to differentiate and integrate composite functions. The chain rule states that if h(x) = g(f(x)), then h'(x) = g'(f(x))f'(x). It provides examples of applying the chain rule to differentiate functions like sin(x2 - 4) and integrate functions like ∫(3x2 + 4)3 dx. It also discusses how to integrate functions of the form f'(x)g(f(x)) by recognizing them as derivatives of composite functions.

The document discusses partitions, Riemann sums, and the definite integral. It begins by defining partitions of an interval [a,b] and Riemann sums with respect to those partitions. Examples are given of partitions and calculating Riemann sums. The definite integral is then defined as the limit of Riemann sums as the partition size approaches zero. Several properties of definite integrals are stated, including linearity and the Fundamental Theorems of Calculus. Examples are provided of evaluating definite integrals using these properties.
This document discusses fuzzy relations, reasoning, and linguistic variables. It defines fuzzy relations as membership functions between elements of Cartesian product spaces. It describes the extension principle for mapping fuzzy sets through functions. Max-min and max-product composition are defined for combining fuzzy relations. Linguistic variables allow information to be expressed using fuzzy linguistic terms rather than numerical values. Operations on linguistic variables like concentration and dilation are discussed. Fuzzy if-then rules are defined using implication functions to model "if A then B" statements where A and B are linguistic values. Fuzzy reasoning uses these rules and facts to derive conclusions.
The document discusses various methods of interpolation, including Lagrange and Newton interpolation polynomials. Lagrange interpolation involves constructing a polynomial that passes through a set of n data points, represented by its values at the points. Newton interpolation similarly uses a polynomial but is based on divided differences. Both can be used to interpolate values within or extrapolate beyond the original data range. The complexity of calculating the interpolation polynomials is also addressed.
The generation of Gaussian random fields over a physical domain is a challenging problem in computational mathematics, especially when the correlation length is short and the field is rough. The traditional approach is to make use of a truncated Karhunen-Loeve (KL) expansion, but the generation of even a single realisation of the field may then be effectively beyond reach (especially for 3-dimensional domains) if the need is to obtain an expected L2 error of say 5%, because of the potentially very slow convergence of the KL expansion. In this talk, based on joint work with Ivan Graham, Frances Kuo, Dirk Nuyens, and Rob Scheichl, a completely different approach is used, in which the field is initially generated at a regular grid on a 2- or 3-dimensional rectangle that contains the physical domain, and then possibly interpolated to obtain the field at other points. In that case there is no need for any truncation. Rather the main problem becomes the factorisation of a large dense matrix. For this we use circulant embedding and FFT ideas. Quasi-Monte Carlo integration is then used to evaluate the expected value of some functional of the finite-element solution of an elliptic PDE with a random field as input.
The Lagrange multiplier method provides a strategy for finding the maxima and minima of a function subject to constraints. It involves setting up a system of equations involving the function, its derivatives, and the constraints and their derivatives. Solving this system of equations yields candidate maxima/minima points, which are then checked in the original function to determine if they are actually maxima or minima. The document provides examples of applying the Lagrange multiplier method to problems with single and multiple constraints.

The document summarizes Christophe Paul's work on algorithms for modular decomposition. It discusses Ehrenfeucht et al's modular decomposition algorithm which computes the modular partition M(G,v) of a graph G with respect to a vertex v. It then computes the modular decomposition of the quotient graph G/M(G,v) and the induced subgraphs G[X] for each module X in M(G,v). The document also discusses Gallai's theorem on the decomposition of graphs into parallel, series, or prime modules and algorithms for recognizing cographs and computing the modular decomposition tree.
This document discusses rank aggregation and Kemeny voting. It provides examples of how rankings from different criteria can be aggregated into a consensus ranking. The Kemeny score aims to determine a ranking that minimizes the total number of disagreements with the input rankings. Finding such a ranking is NP-hard, but fixed-parameter tractable when parameterized by various measures like the number of candidates or scores. The document outlines several relevant results on the parameterized complexity of the Kemeny score problem.

Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptxKavitha Krishnan
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.

2. A permutation problem in voting theory
Given a profile Π = (σ1, σ2, …, σm) of m permutations
(i.e. linear orders) σi (1 ≤ i ≤ m) on a set X of n = |X|
elements, how to aggregate them into a unique
permutation which summarizes Π as accurately as
possible?
In voting theory (Condorcet, 1784): we want to rank n
candidates from the rankings provided by m voters.
3. Example
X = {a, b, c, d, e, f}, m = 5
voter 1: σ1 = a > b > c > f > d > e
voter 2: σ2 = a > c > f > b > d > e
voter 3: σ3 = e > d > a > f > b > c
voter 4: σ4 = b > c > d > e > f > a
voter 5: σ5 = c > f > b > e > a > d.
4. A combinatorial optimization problem
Symmetric difference distance d between R and R′ :
d(R, R′ ) = |{(x, y)Œ X2 with [xRy and not xR′ y]
∈
or [not xRy and xR′ y]}|.
Let Σ be the set of all the permutations defined on X.
Then, for Π = (σ1, σ2, …, σm):
m
Minimize ρΠ(σ) = ∑ d (σ , σ i ) for σ ŒΣ
∈
i= 1
(cf. J.-P. Barthélemy, B. Monjardet, 1981)
5. d(R, R′ ) measures the number of disagreements
between R and R′.
ρΠ(σ) (= remoteness of σ from Π) measures the total
number of disagreements between σ and Π.
σ* minimizing ρΠ over Σ is called a median
permutation (or a median linear order) of Π.
Theorem (J.J. Bartholdi III et alii, 1989;
O. Hudry, 1989; C. Dwork et alii, 2001):
The computation of σ* is NP-hard.
6. A 0-1 linear programming problem
σ = (σxy)(x, y)∈Œ with σxy = 1 if σ ranks x better than y (x >σ y)
X2
and σxy = 0 otherwise.
mxy = m – 2|{i: 1 ≤ i ≤ m and x >σi y}| = –myx
Then: ρΠ(σ) = C + ∑ mxy σ xy
( x, y )∈ X 2
with :
∀ x ŒX, σxx = 1
∈ (reflexivity)
∀ (x, y) ŒX2, x ≠ y, σxy + σyx = 1 (antisymmetry)
∈
∀ (x, y, z) ∈Œ3, σxy + σyz – σxz ≤ 1 (transitivity)
X
∀ (x, y) ŒX2, σxy Œ{0, 1}
∈ ∈ (binarity)
7. Lagrangean relaxation
Relaxation of the transitivity constraints:
∀ (x, y, z) ŒX3, σxy + σyz – σxz ≤ 1
∈
Lagrangean function L for σ = (σxy)(x, y)∈X2 with σxy ∈ {0, 1}, σxx
= 1, σxy + σyx = 1, and Λ = (λxyz)(x, y, z)∈X3 with λxyz ≥ 0:
∑ λ xyz ( σ xy + σ yz − σ xz − 1)
L(σ, Λ) = ρΠ(σ) +
( x, y , z )∈ X 3
∑ a xy (Λ )σ xy − ∑ λ xyz
= C +x, y )∈ X 2
( ( x, y , z )∈ X 3
with a xy (Λ ) = mxy + ∑ (λ xyz + λ zxy − λ xzy )
z∈ X
8. Lagrangean relaxation (end)
Dual function for Λ = (λxyz)(x, y, z)∈X3 with λxyz ≥ 0:
D(Λ) = min{L(σ, Λ) with σ ∈ A}
with A = {reflexive and antisymmetric relations defined on X}.
Dual problem: maximize D(Λ) for Λ ≥ 0.
The maximum of D gives a lower bound of the minimum of ρΠ.
Computation of D(Λ) for a given Λ:
if axy ≥ 0, set σxy = 0, and σxy = 1 otherwise.
Resolution of the dual problem by subgradient methods.
9. The components of the BB algorithm
Initial bound: found by a metaheuristic (a self-tuned noising method; I.
Charon and O. Hudry, 1993, 2009)
Evaluation function: provided by the Lagrangean relaxation.
Branching rule (J.-P. Barthélemy, A. Guénoche, O. Hudry, 1989;
I. Charon, A. Guénoche, O. Hudry, F. Woirgard, 1996):
The root of the BB-tree contains all the permutations defined on X.
A node of the BB-tree contains the permutations sharing a given beginning
section S (i.e. a permutation of a subset of X):
S(xj1, xj2, …, xjp) = xj1 >σ xj2 >σ … >σ xjp.
The branching principle consists in expanding this beginning section:
S(xj1, xj2, …, xjp, x) = xj1 >σ xj2 >σ … xjp >σ x
with x ∉{xj1, xj2, …, xjp}.

11. Other components to prune the BB-tree
Hamiltonian permutations.
* We may summarize a profile Π of permutations by a tournament
T (weighted by –mxy > 0): there is an arc (x, y) if a majority of
voters prefer x to y (we assume that there is no tie).
* We say that a permutation σ is Hamiltonian if it induces a
Hamiltonian path in T.
* Theorem (R. Remage and W.A. Thompson, 1966): a median
permutation is Hamiltonian.
→ xj1 >σ xj2 >σ … >σ xjp is expanded into xj1 >σ … >σ xjp >σ x only
if a majority of voters prefer xjp to x.
12. Example
X = {a, b, c, d, e, f}

σ1 = a > b > c > f > d > e a b
1
σ2 = a > c > f > b > d > e 1 1
σ3 = e > d > a > f > b > c f 1 1 c

σ4 = b > c > d > e > f > a 1 3
σ5 = c > f > b > e > a > d. 1 3 3 3
1
e d
Here, a > c > f > b > d > e 1
is a median permutation and
induces a Hamiltonian path.
13. Other components to prune the BB-tree
We compute the variation of ρΠ when, from a permutation σ
beginning with S = xj1 >σ xj2 >σ … >σ xjp, we take an interval
xjh >σ … >σ xjp (1 ≤ h ≤ p) and we shift it at the end of σ,
after the elements of X – S (= OS = « out of section »):
σ = xj1 >σ xj2 >σ … xjh–1 >σ xjh >σ … >σ xjp >σ (OS)
becomes
σ′ = xj1 >σ′ xj2 >σ′ … xjh–1 >σ′ (OS) >σ′ xjh >σ′ … >σ′ xjp.
If ρΠ decreases, we do not keep the node associated with S.
OSmoves will count this kind of cuts.
14. Other components to prune the BB-tree (end)
When we deal with a new beginning section
S = xj1 >σ xj2 >σ … xjh–1 >σ xjh >σ … >σ xjp >σ x,
we consider the beginning sections that we can get by moving,
inside S, an “interval” of S including x, i.e., the beginning
sections with the following shape:
xjh >σ′ … >σ′ xjp >σ′ x >σ′ xj1 >σ′ xj2 >σ′ … xjh–1.
If ρΠ decreases, we do not keep the node associated with S.
Smoves will count this kind of cuts.

17. Number of median permutations
versus number of Hamiltonian permutations
Let M(n) and H(n) denote respectively the maximum number of
median permutations or of Hamiltonian permutations for
instances on n candidates.
If n is even with n ≥ 2: M(n) = n!
If n is odd: M(n) ≤ H(n).
Theorem (N. Alon, 1990): H(n) ≤ (c × n1.5 × n!)/2n where c is a
constant.
Theorem (I. Charon, O. Hudry, 2000): for n = 3k,
30.75(n – 1)/n2 ≤ M(n).
