Partial Differential Equations
Residuals are the differences between the actual values and the estimated values produced by a mathematical model, reflecting how well the model fits the data. In the context of using Laplace transforms to solve initial value problems, residuals help determine the accuracy of the solution by indicating how much of the original problem's behavior is captured in the transformed domain. They are essential for evaluating and improving the effectiveness of the solution approach.
congrats on reading the definition of Residuals. now let's actually learn it.
