    I How is a vector a directional derivative?

    The reference from Wald was helpful, thank you. While the details of the proof in 2.2 are a little difficult to follow, what I gather is that vectors which span the mapped space in ℝ^n will also span the open set O which they come from. I think I'm beginning to understand, is the following...

    I How is a vector a directional derivative?

    I'm going through a basic introduction to tensors, specifically https://web2.ph.utexas.edu/~jcfeng/notes/Tensors_Poor_Man.pdf and I'm confused by the author when he defines vectors as directional derivatives at the bottom of page 3. He defines a simple example in which ƒ(x^j) = x^1 and then...

    Gaussian Mixture Model Confusion

    Hi All, I'm trying to implement the Gaussian Mixture Model for background subtraction as described by Chris Stauffer and W.E.L Grimson in their paper "Adaptive background mixture models for real-time tracking." I'm having a little trouble with the logic in the step that updates the mean...
