- The natural parameterization of a differentiable curve, representing points on the curve by a function of arc length along the curve
- The natural parameter of an exponential family of probability distributions, the function over which the distribution is exponential
- The natural parameter in parameterized complexity, when a computational problem is parameterized by its output value
