Series acceleration
Mathematical technique From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove ads
In numerical analysis, series acceleration (sometimes called as convergence improvement[1]) is the name for algorithms that transforms slowly convergent series to rapidly convergent series.[2][3]
Where it is used
The NSum and NLimit command in Wolfram Mathematica is based on series acceleration.[4] In addition, Romberg integration (a famous numerical integration method) is also based on this technique.[5][6]
