  2. Synaptic plasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_plasticity

    Two molecular mechanisms for synaptic plasticity involve the NMDA and AMPA glutamate receptors. Opening of NMDA channels (which relates to the level of cellular depolarization) leads to a rise in post-synaptic Ca 2+ concentration and this has been linked to long-term potentiation, LTP (as well as to protein kinase activation); strong depolarization of the post-synaptic cell completely ...

  3. Modifiable areal unit problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modifiable_areal_unit_problem

    The modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) is a source of statistical bias that can significantly impact the results of statistical hypothesis tests. MAUP affects results when point-based measures of spatial phenomena are aggregated into spatial partitions or areal units (such as regions or districts ) as in, for example, population density or ...

    Overall, the Modifiable Temporal Unit Problem highlights the importance of carefully considering the time unit when analyzing and forecasting time series data. [1] It is often necessary to try different time units and evaluate the results to determine the most appropriate choice. [1]

  7. Mendelian randomization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendelian_randomization

    One of the predominant aims of epidemiology is to identify modifiable causes of health outcomes and disease especially those of public health concern. In order to ascertain whether modifying a particular trait (e.g. via an intervention, treatment or policy change) will convey a beneficial effect within a population, firm evidence that this trait causes the outcome of interest is required.

    The modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) is a source of statistical bias that can significantly impact the results of statistical hypothesis tests. MAUP affects results when point-based measures of spatial phenomena are aggregated into spatial partitions or areal units (such as regions or districts ) as in, for example, population density or ...

  9. File attribute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_attribute

    Typical file attributes may, for example, indicate or specify whether a file is visible, modifiable, compressed, or encrypted. The availability of most file attributes depends on support by the underlying filesystem (such as FAT, NTFS, ext4) where attribute data must be stored along with other control structures. Each attribute can have one of ...
