The Monte Carlo method is used in modeling a wide-range of physical systems at the forefront of scientific research today. Monte Carlo
simulations are statistical models based on a series of random numbers. Let's consider the problem of estimating Pi by utilizing the Monte
Carlo method.
Suppose you have a circle inscribed in a square (as in the figure). The experiment simply consists of throwing darts on this figure
completely at random (meaning that every point on the dartboard has an equal chance of being hit by the dart). How can we use this
experiment to estimate Pi? The answer lies in discovering the relationship between the geometry of the figure and the statistical outcome
of throwing the darts. Let's first look at the geometry of the figure.
Let's assume the radius of the circle is R, then the Area of the circle = Pi * R^2 and the Area of the square = 4 * R^2. Now if we divide the
area of the circle by the area of the square we get Pi / 4.
But, how do we estimate Pi by…
Judging rules can be difficult – even for an objective computer program. In football (orsoccer as some people call it), the official rules say that the referee can allow the playto continue ‘when the team against which an offence has been committed will benefitfrom such an advantage’ and penalize ‘the original offence if the anticipated advantagedoes not ensue at that time’ (Federation Internationale de Football Association 2003).How would you implement this rule? What difficulties are involved in it?
Write a MATLAB program that will generate a surface plot of the mass of a conic surface. Theconic surface is defined by ? = 2√?2 + ?2 for 0.5 ≤ z ≤ 4 and the mass is related to z by ? =6 − ? . The plot should have an appropriate title and axis labels.This problem is best solved using cylindrical polar coordinates (r, θ, z) rather than rectangularcoordinates (x, y, z) for the underlying grid. Use z and θ for creating the initial grid, a grid for rcan then be computed from the z and θ grids, grids for x and y can be computed from the r and θgrids, and m can be computed from z grid. Plot m versus and x and y for the surface plot.

- Construct a Turing machine that takes strings over the alphabet {a,b} on the tape, and moves the whole string over to the right one cell position. When you're done, the tape should essentially look the same (since it's infinite on both ends…) but you will know (and people who look at your code will know) that in fact you moved the string over by one space to the right. After moving the string over, the turing machine should move to the left-most cell in the string and than go to the HALT state.arrow_forwardYou are given two sets of numbers: X=-3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 y=-9-7-5-3-1 13 Create a machine learning model that figures out what matches these numbers to each other.

Once the matching is done, predict the value of y for X = 5 Create a program with Pythonarrow_forwardA chess knight, on one turn, moves either two squares vertically and one horizontally, or two horizontally and one vertically. If we consider a knight starting at the point ⟨x, y⟩ in Z × Z, it has eight possible moves, to ⟨x+1,y+2⟩,⟨x+1,y−2⟩,⟨x−1,y+2⟩,⟨x−1,y−2⟩,⟨x+ 2, y + 1⟩, ⟨x + 2, y − 1⟩, ⟨x − 2, y + 1⟩, or⟨x − 2, y − 1⟩. (a) Prove that given any two points ⟨x, y⟩ and ⟨x′, y′⟩ in Z × Z, there is a sequence of knight moves from the first point to the second. (b) Let a and b be different positive naturals. An (a, b)-knight also has eight possible moves, from ⟨x,y⟩ to ⟨x±a,y±b⟩ or ⟨x±b,y±a⟩. What conditions on a and b allow the (a, b)-knight to go from any point in Z × Z to any other? Prove your answer.

These images look more sharp or more detailed if we are able to perceive all the objects and their shapes correctly in it. For example. An image with a face, looks clear when we are able to identify eyes, ears, nose, lips, forehead e.t.c very clear. This shape of an object is due to its edges. So in blurring, we simple reduce the edge content and makes the transition form one color to the other very smooth.a) In your own words, briefly explain a blurred image and why it is sometimes useful to blur an image.EV(6)b) Distinguish between blurring and zooming in your own words and provide in each case practical examples.EV(5)c) Identify and describe the three common types of filters that are used to perform blurring by illustrating with appropriate examples.arrow_forward
