  2. IQ classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IQ_classification

    An IQ score of 115 means performance one standard deviation above the mean, while a score of 85 means performance one standard deviation below the mean, and so on. [5] This "deviation IQ" method is now used for standard scoring of all IQ tests in large part because they allow a consistent definition of IQ for both children and adults.

  3. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    Consequently, Gaussian functions are also associated with the vacuum state in quantum field theory. Gaussian beams are used in optical systems, microwave systems and lasers. In scale space representation, Gaussian functions are used as smoothing kernels for generating multi-scale representations in computer vision and image processing.

  4. Intelligence quotient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient

    An intelligence quotient (IQ) is a total score derived from a set of standardized tests or subtests designed to assess human intelligence. [1] Originally, IQ was a score obtained by dividing a person's mental age score, obtained by administering an intelligence test, by the person's chronological age, both expressed in terms of years and months.

  5. Uncertainty quantification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_quantification

    Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is the science of quantitative characterization and estimation of uncertainties in both computational and real world applications. It tries to determine how likely certain outcomes are if some aspects of the system are not exactly known.

  6. Q-function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q-function

    [1] [2] In other words, () is the probability that a normal (Gaussian) random variable will obtain a value larger than standard deviations. Equivalently, Q ( x ) {\displaystyle Q(x)} is the probability that a standard normal random variable takes a value larger than x {\displaystyle x} .

  7. Gaussian measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_measure

    Gaussian measures with mean = are known as centered Gaussian measures. The Dirac measure δ μ {\displaystyle \delta _{\mu }} is the weak limit of γ μ , σ 2 n {\displaystyle \gamma _{\mu ,\sigma ^{2}}^{n}} as σ → 0 {\displaystyle \sigma \to 0} , and is considered to be a degenerate Gaussian measure ; in contrast, Gaussian measures with ...

    A common example is visual acuity testing with an eye chart.The person sees symbols of different sizes (the size is the relevant physical stimulus parameter) and has to decide which symbol it is.

  9. Matrix normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_normal_distribution

    The probability density function for the random matrix X (n × p) that follows the matrix normal distribution , (,,) has the form: (,,) = ⁡ ([() ()]) / | | / | | /where denotes trace and M is n × p, U is n × n and V is p × p, and the density is understood as the probability density function with respect to the standard Lebesgue measure in , i.e.: the measure corresponding to integration ...
