Example: "The colors in the painting blend seamlessly as a gradient, creating a beautiful transition from blue to green."
Alternatives: "in a gradual manner" or "as a spectrum".
This is then formulated as a gradient flow optimization problem.
In particular, back-propagation has been adopted as a gradient descent-based algorithm for training networks.
In both areas, size and architectural characters are displayed as a gradient from open habitats to forest.
The solver is based on its variational formulation as a gradient flow with respect to the Wasserstein distance.
In addition, we reveal the existence of an electrostatic territory that is organized as a gradient along the endocytic pathway and is controlled by PS/PI4P combination.

"Our understanding of water and land has been such a fixed notion — one side is wet and one is dry — but you have to think about it as a sloped line and the surface as a gradient," she says.
The Program frames the city not as a fixed, delineated territory a modernist fixation on boundaries but instead as a gradient of varied landscapes supported by networks of food, energy, resources, culture, transportation and capital.
The output couples the phylogenetic information from the RAxML tree and the contribution of the different branches/lineages to the mutual information (i.e. the information shared between each lineage and the grouping at which a given observation belongs expressed as a gradient of colours, where yellow is the null contribution and dark red the maximum).
Whenever, wherever in the universe living things become intelligent enough to perform these kinds of operations, they will be able to increase complexity around them as long as a gradient of energy is available.
For targets scaled in size with eccentricity, the attentional effects spread circumferentially as a gradient whose full width at half maximum was consistently 1.5 times the target width at each eccentricity.
