  2. RDRAND - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RdRand

    They found that a C implementation of RDRAND ran about 2× slower than the default random number generator in C, and about 20× slower than the Mersenne Twister. Although a Python module of RDRAND has been constructed, it was found to be 20× slower than the default random number generator in Python, [ 20 ] although a performance comparison ...

  4. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a class of highly efficient linear block codes made from many single parity check (SPC) codes. They can provide performance very close to the channel capacity (the theoretical maximum) using an iterated soft-decision decoding approach, at linear time complexity in terms of their block length. Practical ...

  5. Blahut–Arimoto algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blahut–Arimoto_algorithm

    A discrete memoryless channel (DMC) can be specified using two random variables , with alphabet ,, and a channel law as a conditional probability distribution (|). The channel capacity , defined as C := sup p ∼ X I ( X ; Y ) {\displaystyle C:=\sup _{p\sim X}I(X;Y)} , indicates the maximum efficiency that a channel can communicate, in the unit ...

  6. Random number generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation

    Dice are an example of a mechanical hardware random number generator. When a cubical die is rolled, a random number from 1 to 6 is obtained. Random number generation is a process by which, often by means of a random number generator (RNG), a sequence of numbers or symbols is generated that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance.

  7. Pseudorandomness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandomness

    The first attempt to provide researchers with a ready supply of random digits was in 1927, when the Cambridge University Press published a table of 41,600 digits developed by L.H.C. Tippett. In 1947, the RAND Corporation generated numbers by the electronic simulation of a roulette wheel; [ 5 ] the results were eventually published in 1955 as A ...

  8. Rand index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rand_index

    Example clusterings for a dataset with the kMeans (left) and Mean shift (right) algorithms. The calculated Adjusted Rand index for these two clusterings is . The Rand index [1] or Rand measure (named after William M. Rand) in statistics, and in particular in data clustering, is a measure of the similarity between two data clusterings.

  9. Channel (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_(programming)

    In computing, a channel is a model for interprocess communication and synchronization via message passing. A message may be sent over a channel, and another process or thread is able to receive messages sent over a channel it has a reference to, as a stream. Different implementations of channels may be buffered or not, and either synchronous or ...
