Concave function Concave function In mathematics, a concave function is the negative of a convex function. A concave function is also synonymously called concave downwards, concave down, convex upwards, convex cap or upper convex. A real-valued function formula_1 on an interval (or, more generally, a convex set in vector space) is said to be "concave" if, for any formula_2 and formula_3 in the interval and for any formula_4, A function is called "strictly concave" if for any formula_7 and formula_8. For a function formula_9, this second definition merely states that for every formula_10 strictly between formula_2 and formula_3, the point formula_13 on
Parallel projection has the following properties. Orthographic projection is derived from the principles of descriptive geometry, and is a type of parallel projection where the projection rays are perpendicular to the projection plane. It is the projection type of choice for working drawings. The term "orthographic" is sometimes reserved specifically for depictions of objects where the principal axes or planes of the object are parallel with the projection plane (or the paper on which the orthographic or parallel projection is drawn). However, the term multiview projection is also used. In "multiview projections", up to six pictures of an object are produced, with
