Students should complete 6 of the 7 questions provided, with each question worth 10 marks. The questions cover topics in probability, statistics, and random variables including moment generating functions, joint and marginal distributions, confidence intervals, and the Poisson distribution.
The document discusses differential processing on triangular meshes, including defining functions on meshes, local averaging operators, gradient and Laplacian operators, and proving that the normalized Laplacian is symmetric and positive definite using the properties of the gradient and local connectivity of the mesh. Operators like the Laplacian can be used to smooth functions defined on meshes through diffusion.
The document is a final exam for an engineering course covering several topics in probability and statistics. It contains 7 multi-part questions testing concepts such as Benford's Law, probability distributions including normal, Poisson, and Rayleigh distributions, sampling and descriptive statistics. Students are allowed basic calculators and materials but no outside resources to solve the problems and show their work.
The document discusses parameterization and flattening of meshes. It introduces mesh parameterization, which maps the 3D mesh onto a 2D domain, as well as several parameterization methods like harmonic parameterization, spectral flattening, and geodesic flattening. It also discusses barycentric coordinates for warping meshes and approximating integrals on meshes using cotangent weights.
1. Geodesic sampling and meshing techniques can be used to generate adaptive triangulations and meshes on Riemannian manifolds based on a metric tensor.
2. Anisotropic metrics can be defined to generate meshes adapted to features like edges in images or curvature on surfaces. Triangles will be elongated along strong features to better approximate functions.
3. Farthest point sampling can be used to generate well-spaced point distributions over manifolds according to a metric, which can then be triangulated using geodesic Delaunay refinement.
The document derives the normal probability density function from basic assumptions. It assumes that errors in perpendicular directions are independent, large errors are less likely than small errors, and the distribution is not dependent on orientation. This leads to a differential equation that can only be satisfied by an exponential function, giving the normal distribution. The values of the coefficients are determined by requiring the total area under the curve to be 1 and that the variance equals 1/k. This fully specifies the normal probability density function.

The document describes an application of interval-valued fuzzy soft sets in medical diagnosis. Interval-valued fuzzy soft sets are constructed over symptoms, diseases, and patients to model uncertain medical knowledge. Relation matrices are derived from the interval-valued fuzzy soft sets to represent symptom-disease, non-symptom-disease, and patient-symptom relationships. These matrices are used to calculate diagnosis scores for each patient-disease pair to determine the most likely disease. A case study demonstrates the process using example interval-valued fuzzy soft sets and relation matrices.
