  2. Ambiguity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambiguity_function

    In pulsed radar and sonar signal processing, an ambiguity function is a two-dimensional function of propagation delay and Doppler frequency, (,).It represents the distortion of a returned pulse due to the receiver matched filter [1] (commonly, but not exclusively, used in pulse compression radar) of the return from a moving target.

  3. Mental model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_model

    Mental models can help shape behaviour, including approaches to solving problems and performing tasks. In psychology, the term mental models is sometimes used to refer to mental representations or mental simulation generally. The concepts of schema and conceptual models are cognitively adjacent.

    Fluid intelligence is the ability to solve novel reasoning problems and is correlated with a number of important skills such as comprehension, problem-solving, and learning. [4] Crystallized intelligence, on the other hand, involves the ability to deduce secondary relational abstractions by applying previously learned primary relational ...

  6. Einstellung effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstellung_effect

    The extinction problem was a problem that could not be solved using the previous solution B − A − 2C. In order to answer the extinction problem correctly, one had to solve the problem directly and generate a novel solution. An incorrect solution to the extinction problem indicated the presence of the Einstellung effect. The problems after ...

    § 9 Doppler notes that the orbital speed of the Earth (4.7 Meilen/s) is too low (<33 Meilen/s) to result in visually perceptible colour changes. He identifies two factors that may lead to high orbital speeds in a binary star: Central star far heavier than the Sun. According to Doppler stars that are a million times heavier than the Sun are ...

  9. Inverse problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_problem

    An inverse problem in science is the process of calculating from a set of observations the causal factors that produced them: for example, calculating an image in X-ray computed tomography, source reconstruction in acoustics, or calculating the density of the Earth from measurements of its gravity field.
