The paper proposes a general notion of interaction between attributes, which can be applied to many fields in decision making and data analysis. It generalizes the notion of interaction defined for criteria modelled by capacities, by…
Many modern numerical methods in computational science and engineering rely on derivatives of mathematical models for the phenomena under investigation. The computation of these derivatives often represents the bottleneck in terms of…
A unified explicit form for difference formulas to approximate the fractional and classical derivatives is presented. The formula gives finite difference approximations for any classical derivatives with a desired order of accuracy at nodal…
This article provides an accessible introduction to fractional derivatives, a concept that extends classical calculus by allowing derivatives of non-integer order. It explores both the fundamental definitions and some of the most relevant…
In this article we discuss an important students' misconception about derivatives, that the expression of the derivative of the function contains the information as to whether the function is differentiable or not where the expression is…
We develop a categorical framework for reasoning about abstract properties of differentiation, based on the theory of fibrations. Our work encompasses the first-order fragments of several existing categorical structures for differentiation,…
A method for obtaining discretization formulas for the derivatives of a function is presented, which relies on a generalization of divided differences. These modified divided differences essentially correspond to a change of the dependent…
We present the technique of derivation of a theory to obtain an $(n+1)f$-degrees-of-freedom theory from an $f$-degrees-of-freedom theory and show that one can calculate all of the quantities of the derived theory from those of the original…
This paper introduces a reformulation of the classical convergence theorem for spectral sequences of filtered complexes which provides an algorithm to effectively compute the induced filtration on the total (co)homology, as soon as the…
In this exploratory article, we draw attention to the common formal ground among various estimators such as the belief functions of evidence theory and their relatives, approximation quality of rough set theory, and contextual probability.…
In order to describe more complex problem using the concept of fractional derivatives, we introduce in this paper the concept of fractional derivatives with orders. The new definitions are based upon the concept of power law together with…
This work revolves around the study of differentiability in the Stieltjes sense of a product of functions. A formula for the first order derivative has been obtained in the past, which is similar to the usual one with some extra terms in…
The aim of this note is to show that many papers on various kinds of filters (and related concepts) in (subreducts of) residuated structures are in fact easy consequences of more general results that have been known for a long time.
This paper reviews a class of univariate piecewise polynomial functions known as discrete splines, which share properties analogous to the better-known class of spline functions, but where continuity in derivatives is replaced by (a…
In the present article, a new method for the evaluation of fractional derivatives of arbitrary real order is proposed. Numerous but inequivalent formulations have been given in the past. Some of them exhibit unsatisfactory properties such…
This paper is devoted to the study of generalized differentiation properties of the infimal convolution. This class of functions covers a large spectrum of nonsmooth functions well known in the literature. The subdifferential formulas…
There are many possible definitions of derivatives, here we present some and present one that we have called generalized that allows us to put some of the others as a particular case of this but, what interests us is to determine that there…
This paper proposes new derivations of three well-known sorting algorithms, in their functional formulation. The approach we use is based on three main ingredients: first, the algorithms are derived from a simpler algorithm, i.e. the…
What should a function that extrapolates beyond known input/output examples look like? This is a tricky question to answer in general, as any function matching the outputs on those examples can in principle be a correct extrapolant. We…
We propose a novel foundation for calculus that focuses on the notion of approximations while avoiding the use of limits altogether. Continuity is defined as approximation at a point, while differentiability is defined as approximation with…
