  2. Non-numerical words for quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-numerical_words_for...

    The English language has a number of words that denote specific or approximate quantities that are themselves not numbers. [1] Along with numerals, and special-purpose words like some, any, much, more, every, and all, they are quantifiers.

  3. Outline of object recognition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_object_recognition

    Object recognition – technology in the field of computer vision for finding and identifying objects in an image or video sequence. Humans recognize a multitude of objects in images with little effort, despite the fact that the image of the objects may vary somewhat in different view points, in many different sizes and scales or even when they are translated or rotated.

  4. Size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size

    Size in general is the magnitude or dimensions of a thing. More specifically, geometrical size (or spatial size) can refer to three geometrical measures: length, area, or volume. Length can be generalized to other linear dimensions (width, height, diameter, perimeter). Size can also be measured in terms of mass, especially when assuming a ...

    An Olympic-size swimming pool holds over 2 acre-feet of water For larger volumes of liquid, one measure commonly used in the media in many countries is the Olympic-size swimming pool. [47] A 50 m × 25 m (164 ft × 82 ft) Olympic swimming pool, built to the FR3 minimum depth of 2 metres (6.6 ft) would hold 2,500 m 3 (660,000 US gal).

  6. Macroscopic scale - Wikipedia

    At first glance one might think of them as differing simply in the size of objects that they describe, classical objects being considered far larger as to mass and geometrical size than quantal objects, for example a football versus a fine particle of dust.

    In other words, given a mathematical description of gait A and these three coefficients, one could produce gait B, and vice versa. The hypothesis itself is as follows: "animals of different sizes tend to move in dynamically similar fashion whenever the ratio of their speed allows it."

  8. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    The oldest way to roughly measure a volume of an object is using the human body, such as using hand size and pinches. However, the human body's variations make it extremely unreliable. A better way to measure volume is to use roughly consistent and durable containers found in nature, such as gourds, sheep or pig stomachs, and bladders.

  9. Balance puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_puzzle

    To find a solution, we first consider the maximum number of items from which one can find the lighter one in just one weighing. The maximum number possible is three. To find the lighter one, we can compare any two coins, leaving the third out. If the two coins weigh the same, then the lighter coin must be one of those not on the balance.
