  2. Units of information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

    In digital computing and telecommunications, a unit of information is the capacity of some standard data storage system or communication channel, used to measure the capacities of other systems and channels. In information theory, units of information are also used to measure information contained in messages and the entropy of random variables.

  3. Device-independent pixel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device-independent_pixel

    As dp is a physical unit it has an absolute value which can be measured in traditional units, e.g. for Android devices 1 dp equals 1/160 of inch or 0.15875 mm. While traditional pixels only refer to the display of information, device-independent pixels may also be used to measure user input such as input on a touch screen device.

  5. Density (computer storage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_(computer_storage)

    Molecular polymer storage has been shown to store 10 Tbit/in 2. [10] By far the densest type of memory storage experimentally to date is electronic quantum holography . By superimposing images of different wavelengths into the same hologram, in 2009 a Stanford research team achieved a bit density of 35 bit/electron (approximately 3 exabytes /in ...

  6. Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plotting_algorithms_for...

    Every pixel that contains a point of the Mandelbrot set is colored black. Every pixel that is colored black is close to the Mandelbrot set. Exterior distance estimate may be used to color whole complement of Mandelbrot set. The upper bound b for the distance estimate of a pixel c (a complex number) from the Mandelbrot set is given by [6] [7] [8]

  7. Image histogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_histogram

    An image histogram is a type of histogram that acts as a graphical representation of the tonal distribution in a digital image. [1] It plots the number of pixels for each tonal value. By looking at the histogram for a specific image a viewer will be able to judge the entire tonal distribution at a glance.

  8. Digital image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_image

    A digital image is an image composed of picture elements, also known as pixels, each with finite, discrete quantities of numeric representation for its intensity or gray level that is an output from its two-dimensional functions fed as input by its spatial coordinates denoted with x, y on the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. [1]

  9. Display resolution standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution_standards

    Since a pixel must be a whole number, rounding up to 854 ensures inclusion of the entire image. 853 × 480 is the 16:9 equivalent for NTSC (480 lines) on a display with square pixels. Plasma and other digital TV sets with this resolution were marketed as enhanced-definition television (EDTV) at the time.
