	PlanetMath: closed form
		This is in contrast to the recurrence relation form, which can have all of the previous values of the sequence as parameters.
		The benefit of the closed form is that one does not have to calculate all of the previous values of the sequence to get the next value.
		This is version 3 of closed form, born on 2001-11-04, modified 2002-03-08.

	Crystal Form, Zones, & Habit
		An octahedron is an 8 faced form that results form three 4-fold axes with perpendicular mirror planes.
		The form symbol for a dodecahedron is {110}.
		The tetrahexahedron is a 24-faced form with a general form symbol of {0hl} This means that all faces are parallel to one of the a axes, and intersect the other 2 axes at different lengths.

	Open and Closed Form in Film (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The closed form relies particularly on pictorial and architectural traditions; the open form on theatrical and novelistic origins.
		In the closed film there is no escape from the logic of actions and events, while in the open film characters may well walk off the frame to some section of the world the camera specifically does not define.
		Both Lang and Hitchcock are fascinated by the courtroom, the closed context of judgment in which the audience and the jury are identified.

	Closed-form solution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The classic example involves the two roots of a quadratic equation, which can be expressed in closed form in terms of addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, and square root extraction.
		When no closed-form solutions exist – as is the case for fifth-order or higher polynomial equations, for example – such equations have to be solved numerically, typically by using some root-finding algorithm.
		For example, many cumulative distribution functions cannot be expressed in closed form, unless one considers special functions such as the error function or gamma function to be well-known.

	Closed Form Solution for the Wave Equation
		This paper documents both the development of a closed form solution for the one-dimensional wave equation as it is applied to piles and its comparison to numerical solutions of the same problem.
		The comparison shows variations between the closed form solution and the numerical methods that, although not egregious, are also not consistent from case to case.
		Closed form solutions were either abandoned entirely or applied on a limited basis or in an ancillary way to other techniques.

	Closed Form Solution for the Wave Equation
		In this paper the closed form solution for the damped wave equation will first be stated and related to an actual pile driven into the soil.
		This paper is a review and summary of the efforts made to develop a closed form solution of the wave equation as applied to driven piles.
		The rationale for the use of closed form solutions as opposed to the numerical ones is set forth.

	Closed-Form Maximum Likelihood Estimates of Nearest Neighbor Spatial Dependence (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In turn, this leads to a closed form solution for the maximum likelihood estimates of the spatially autoregressive and mixed regressive spatially autoregressive models.
		In fact, we obtain a closed form not just for the log-determinant of the nearest neighbor adjacency matrix but also the log-determinant of any linear combination of the odd powers of this matrix.
		One could imagine the heavy line represents a closed border, for example, and economic activity on each side is correlated, but that the economic activities of each side are independent of the other side due to lack of trade.

	The Wavelet Digest :: View topic - Seeking closed form expression
		I think my only option is a biorthogonal spline wavelet, but I'm having great difficulty finding a closed form expression for one.
		If I do use a biorthogonal spline wavelet, I only need the reconstruction wavelet to be differentiable and expressible in closed form; I don't care what the decomposition wavelet looks like.
		Just to be clear, when I say a "closed form expression," what I mean is that there is a way to write

	Macroapproach Closed-Form Series Solution for Orthotropic Plates (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Using known solution forms of summation equations, solution of systems of equations in open form has been avoided.
		Numerical examples involving orthotropic plates with various aspect ratios, loading cases, and bridge-type boundary conditions are presented to demonstrate the accuracy of the approach for predicting deflections and moments.
		The major advantage of this technique is the development of a solution algorithm in the form of summation equations, leading to fast converging closed-form series solutions.

	Numerical Solution, Closed-Form Solution
		Models take many forms, but they generally comprise a set of assumptions that are formalized with mathematical equations.
		A closed-form solution (or closed form expression) is any formula that can be evaluated in a finite number of standard operations.
		Closed form solutions and numerical solutions are similar in that they both can be evaluated with a finite number of standard operations.

	Re: Closed-Form pricing formula (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		A function has a closed form if it can be written exactly with a finite number of standard functions (powers, exponentials, sins, etc).
		Sometimes it has a closed form, as with the Black-Scholes formula for an equity option paying no dividends.
		Other times it has no closed form solution and must be evaluated with Monte Carlo simulation or some other means.

	Closed Form Integration of Arti cial Neural Networks With Some Applications to Finance (SMEALSearch) - ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Many economic and econometric applications require the integration of functions lacking a closed form antiderivative, which is therefore a task that can only be solved by numerical methods.
		We propose a new family of probability densities that can be used as substitutes and have the property of closed form integrability.
		This is especially advantageous in cases where either the complexity of a problem makes numerical function evaluations very costly, or fast information extraction is required for timevarying environments.

	Towards Closed Form Solutions to the Multiview (ResearchIndex) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Abstract: In this paper we present the theoretical setting for the closed form solutions to the multiview constraints of curves and surfaces observed by the motion of a camera in a scene.
		We nd that knowledge of a curve or surface`s structure can provide matching constraints and thus closed form solutions for the position of a camera in a scene over many images.
		This is advantageous for the process of Structure From Motion (SFM) as it may negate some of the need for non-linear optimisation...

	Annex: Alternative Closed-form Solution for FNOW (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		This paper summarizes the recent development and use of reference points for fisheries management and their current contribution to precautionary fisheries management.
		Reference points are only relevant in the management context if they are incorporated into harvest control laws which form the basis for management action.
		They need to be reconciled through discussion and negotiation among managers, fishers and the fishing industry, since the risk that a particular fishing strategy will be precautionary depends on the overall performance of the fishery as a system and not just on the precision of the reference point.

	Fibonacci Numbers Spelled Out
		The usual trick is to find a closed form expression for B(x) and tweak it.
		Some power series are able to converge to an expression which does not include infinite summation anymore.
		For this to happen, x must be less than 1 -- otherwise the sum terms grow and it can not converge.

	Robotics Institute: Some Useful Results for Closed-Form Propagation of Error in Vehicle Odometry
		As a result, an essentially closed form solution to both deterministic and random linearized error propagation is available.
		Examination of the general solution indicates that error expressions depend on a few simple path functionals which are analogous to the moments of mechanics and equal to the first two coefficients of the power and Fourier series of the path followed.
		Optimal estimation algorithms can be implemented in nearly closed form for small footprint embedded applications, etc.
