  2. Detection limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detection_limit

    Most analytical instruments produce a signal even when a blank (matrix without analyte) is analyzed.This signal is referred to as the noise level. The instrument detection limit (IDL) is the analyte concentration that is required to produce a signal greater than three times the standard deviation of the noise level.

  3. Level of detail (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

    As a simple example, consider a sphere.A discrete LOD approach would cache a certain number of models to be used at different distances. Because the model can trivially be procedurally generated by its mathematical formulation, using a different number of sample points distributed on the surface is sufficient to generate the various models required.

  4. Molecular graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_graphics

    Prior to the use of computer graphics in representing molecular structure, Robert Corey and Linus Pauling developed a system for representing atoms or groups of atoms from hard wood on a scale of 1 inch = 1 angstrom connected by a clamping device to maintain the molecular configuration. [4]

    The difference between MDL and MML is a source of ongoing confusion. Superficially, the methods appear mostly equivalent, but there are some significant differences, especially in interpretation: MML is a fully subjective Bayesian approach: it starts from the idea that one represents one's beliefs about the data-generating process in the form ...

  6. POSIX terminal interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POSIX_terminal_interface

    The terminal interface provided by Unix 32V and Seventh Edition Unix, and also presented by BSD version 4 as the old terminal driver, was a simple one, largely geared towards teletypewriters as terminals. Input was entered a line at a time, with the terminal driver in the operating system (and not the terminals themselves) providing simple line ...

  7. curses (programming library) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curses_(programming_library)

    curses is a terminal control library for Unix-like systems, enabling the construction of text user interface (TUI) applications. The name is a pun on the term "cursor optimization". It is a library of functions that manage an application's display on character-cell terminals (e.g., VT100). [2] ncurses is the approved replacement for 4.4BSD ...
