Continuous Variable: can take on any value between two specified values. Obtained by measuring. Covariance: a measure of the direction of the linear relationship between two variables. Discrete ...

This paper presents an approach for representing functions of discrete variables, and their products, using logarithmic numbers of binary variables. Given a univariate function whose domain consists ...

For any chance variable x = (x1,⋯,xN) having known distribution, the translation parameter estimation problem is to estimate an unknown constant h, having observed y = (x1 + h,⋯,xN + h). Extending the ...

This is the ninth in a series of lecture notes which, if tied together into a textbook, might be entitled “Practical Regression.” The purpose of the notes is to supplement the theoretical content of ...

A random variable that can take only a certain specified set of individual possible values-for example, the positive integers 1, 2, 3, . . . For example, stock prices are discrete random variables, ...

The benchmark tests show that the noise-free realization of QA can significantly outperform state-of-the-art classical algorithms. Quantum annealing (QA) is a cutting-edge algorithm that leverages the ...
