What's the difference between polynomial and quadrinomial?

Polynomial


Definition:

  • (n.) An expression composed of two or more terms, connected by the signs plus or minus; as, a2 - 2ab + b2.
  • (a.) Containing many names or terms; multinominal; as, the polynomial theorem.
  • (a.) Consisting of two or more words; having names consisting of two or more words; as, a polynomial name; polynomial nomenclature.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The dual-line and polynomial regression techniques fit the data better (mean residual square deviation 0.024 and 0.031, respectively) than the single-regression line approach (0.110).
  • (2) The N2O dose-response data for each animal were fit by a second-order polynomial equation to estimate the value of a second-order coefficient.
  • (3) The calculation is made from a newly derived third-degree polynomial reflecting the ratio of the optic densities of whole nonstabilized blood hemoglobin aqueous solution in the 560-580 and 535-560 nm bands.
  • (4) Relative dose functions for 125I for these phantom media are fitted to second-degree polynomials.
  • (5) For this purpose we employed a third-degree polynomial regression analysis which showed a better fit of the data.
  • (6) Changes in pressures (IAP, CVP) and shunt flow were tabulated and analyzed with linear and polynomial regression.
  • (7) Trend analysis of the fatigue patterns revealed that a cubic orthogonal polynomial equation was sufficient to describe the profile of MVC decrement for all conditions.
  • (8) The superiority of the R3SSE over two related equations--a simple second-degree polynomial equation and a simplified form of the R3SSE which neglects contributions to solubility from the solvent mixture--is also demonstrated for a number of solutes.
  • (9) The polynomial logit-log procedure gave the best fit, but this was probably due to the inherent flexibility of this curve-fitting process since the analytical precision achieved with it was not better than what was obtained with most of the other procedures.
  • (10) A theorem about correspondence of the graph constructed and coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of linearized kinetic equations is proved.
  • (11) A tabulation is given of the polynomials for all possible stereoisomers of many of the knotted and catenated forms that are found in DNA.
  • (12) We present a polynomial algorithm (O(n X L4), where n is the number of sequences) for generating strings related to the LCS and constructed with the sequence alphabet and an indetermination symbol.
  • (13) The LV volume curve was smoothed by fitting a fourth order polynomial curve of Fourier's analysis.
  • (14) This case reduces to Wyman's binding polynomial analysis.
  • (15) Hence, the dose response relationship for the trophic effect of gastrin on the enterochromaffin like cells seems to follow a polynomial rather than a linear function.
  • (16) Polynomial curves were fitted to each race and sex group and, from these, estimates were made of the 3rd, 50th, and 97th percentiles for height and weight.
  • (17) The H-H rate constants, alpha and beta, are approximated by polynomial functions rather than exponential functions, since the former are handled more efficiently by SPICE.
  • (18) A third-order polynomial function would theoretically explain better than a linear relation or a parabolic fit the curved shape of experimentally obtained P-Q relationships.
  • (19) A polynomial regression fits the best the results: the speed of acquisition of this kind of learning decreases between the ages of 3 and 35 days, a plateau being observed in flies older than 35 days.
  • (20) It involves a conceptual dissection of the polypeptide chain into interacting blocks; the behavior of any block with side-chain interactions is treated then with conventional binding polynomial techniques.

Quadrinomial


Definition:

  • (n.) A polynomial of four terms connected by the signs plus or minus.
