= Local linearization method
{wiki=Local_linearization_method}
Local linearization, often referred to as linearization, is a mathematical technique used to approximate a nonlinear function by a linear function around a specific point, typically at a point of interest. This method is particularly useful in fields such as control theory, optimization, and differential equations, where analyzing nonlinear systems directly can be complex and challenging. \#\#\# Key Concepts of Local Linearization: 1. **Taylor Series Expansion**: Local linearization is often based on the first-order Taylor series expansion of a function.
