In dictionaries:
Sparse matrix
Matrix with mostly zero elements.
sparse array
(programming) An array in which most of the values are zero.
sparse vector
sparse graph
Sparse file
In computer science, a sparse file is a type of computer file that attempts to use file system space more efficiently when the file itself is partially empty.
Sparse dictionary learning
(also known as sparse coding or SDL) a representation learning method which aims to find a sparse representation of the input data in the form of a linear combination of basic elements as well as those basic elements themselves.
Sparse network
In network science, a sparse network has much fewer links than the possible maximum number of links within that network (the opposite is a dense network).
Sparse PCA
Sparse principal component analysis (SPCA or sparse PCA) is a technique used in statistical analysis and, in particular, in the analysis of multivariate data sets.
Sparse distributed memory
a mathematical model of human long-term memory introduced by Pentti Kanerva in 1988 while he was at NASA Ames Research Center.
Sparse voxel octree
A sparse voxel octree is a 3D computer graphics rendering technique using a raycasting or sometimes a ray tracing approach into an octree data representation.
Sparse approximation
Sparse approximation (also known as sparse representation) theory deals with sparse solutions for systems of linear equations.
Sparse image
A sparse image is a type of disk image file used on macOS that grows in size as the user adds data to the image, taking up only as much disk space as stored in it.
