Inflection point

Summary

An inflection point of a function is a point where the function changes from convex to concave, or from concave to convex. For twice differentiable functions, the second derivative vanishes there. The node inflection point gives the precise definition.

What this node needs for W2
  • edge instance_of in: at least two examples (0 of 2)
  • edge not_instance_of in: at least one non-example (0 of 1)
  • edge specializes both: the more general notions and the special cases (0 of 1)

The writing levels say how complete the text of a node is. They do not measure its truth.
