The calculation of the degree of an approximate greatest common
... The calculation of the degree of an approximate greatest common divisor (AGCD) of two inexact polynomials f (y) and g(y) is a non-trivial computation because it reduces to the estimation of the rank loss of a resultant matrix R(f, g). This computation is usually performed by placing a threshold on t ...
