In a variety of problems involving models from genetics, latent-class analysis, and missing data, I apply a log-linear model to an indirectly observed frequency table. Current algorithms for ...

In this paper a family of functional iterations is introduced. One member of this family is the Newton-Raphson method and another member, obtained from a generalization of Steffensen's method to a ...

Crystal oscillators are notoriously difficult to simulate accurately. The nature of the Newton-Raphson algorithm, which all Spice-like simulators (HSpice, PSpice, Spectre, and Eldo) use, is difficult ...

Newton method, invented by physicist Isaac Newton about 300 years ago, is an algorithm that still plays an important role in a wide range of fields, including logistics, financial engineering, ...
