  2. Contrast (vision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_(vision)

    Contrast is the difference in luminance or color that makes an object (or its representation in an image or display) visible against a background of different luminance or color. [1] The human visual system is more sensitive to contrast than to absolute luminance; thus, we can perceive the world similarly despite significant changes in ...

  3. Phonemic contrast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonemic_contrast

    Another example in English of a phonemic contrast would be the difference between leak and league; the minimal difference of voicing between [k] and [g] does lead to the two utterances being perceived as different words. On the other hand, an example that is not a phonemic contrast in English is the difference between [sit] and [siːt]. [1]

  4. Display contrast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_contrast

    The "luminance contrast" is the ratio between the higher luminance, L H, and the lower luminance, L L, that define the feature to be detected.This ratio, often called contrast ratio, CR, (actually being a luminance ratio), is often used for high luminances and for specification of the contrast of electronic visual display devices.

  5. Comparison of CRT, LCD, plasma, and OLED displays - Wikipedia

    High altitude pressure difference may cause poor function or buzzing noises [38] Can have poor brightness, especially when most of the picture is white [5] Electro-magnetic radiation emission Can emit a small amount of X-ray radiation. Only emits non-ionizing radiation. [39] Emits strong radio frequency electromagnetic radiation [40]

  6. Contrastive distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrastive_distribution

    In morphology, two morphemes are in contrastive distribution if they occur in the same environment, but have different meanings. For example, in Korean, noun phrases are followed by one of the various markers that indicate syntactic role: /-ka/, /-i/, /-(l)ul/, etc. /-ka/ and /-i/ are in complementary distribution.

  7. Contrast ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_ratio

    An LCD technology is dynamic contrast (DC), also called advanced contrast ratio (ACR), and smart contrast ratio (SCR [4]) and various other designations.When there is a need to display a dark image, a display that supports dynamic contrast underpowers the backlight lamp (or decreases the aperture of the projector's lens using an iris), but proportionately amplifies the transmission through the ...

  8. Comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison

    Displaying the differences between two or more sets of data, file comparison tools can make computing simpler, and more efficient by focusing on new data and ignoring what did not change. Generically known as a diff [ 18 ] after the Unix diff utility , there are a range of ways to compare data sources and display the results.

  9. Différance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Différance

    Only in this way can différance be thought as the differing and deferral of life (life as the emergence of a difference from non-life, specifically as the deferral of entropy), and as the difference from physis through which the human must inevitably be defined (the human as the inauguration of another memory, neither the memory of genetics ...
